This open work poncho has lots of drape and is great for warmer weather. The peek-a-boo shoulder is so fun to wear too.
The colors in this yarn are all of my favorites, green, mint, lilac with some other accent threads running through it. This is one of my favorite yarn lines from Red Heart!
I love the way this changes colors and seems to flow from one color to the next beautifully. Designed with triangle stitching for an on-trend fashion statement.
The yarn I used is from Red Heart and is called It’s A Wrap – Sprinkles in the color Confetti, the colors in this are lovely. The top of the poncho begins with a pretty lilac color, and changes to a mint green and turns to turquoise, then green, and ends with the gold edging. The yarn has “sprinkles” of other colors throughout and does all the color work for you!
This is an easy four row repeat for the main section of the body, followed by a pretty lace area, and finishing with the final edging.
