Both Sides Now Poncho Pattern

The Both Sides Poncho is simple to knit yet packs a style punch because of our unique yarns. This pattern is ideal for beginner knitters or those (like me!) that love a quick knit. I especially love this piece as an early fall, lightweight sweater worn over a tee, or as a layering piece to wear over long sleeves as the temperature drops. It is very versatile and because of the easy shape, fits most body types.    Any Knit Collage yarns in place of Sister, Wildflower and Cast Away will work as long as you meet the required gauge. The mini skein sampler kit would be a fun substitution to use here for a more artisan look. In the pattern, I lay out the stripe pattern I used and knit but you could create your own and really have fun with this if you're feeling a little more adventurous too!   *This pattern is a PDF download that you will receive once payment is complete Skill Level: Beginner to Intermediate Knitter Materials: 2 skeins Sister yarn – color A (shown in Ivory) 1 skein Cast Away OR 2 skeins of Wildflower – color B (shown in Wildflower Color Beatnik) 2 skeins Sister Yarn – color C (shown in Oatmeal Heather)  Needle Size: Size US 17 or 12mm needles – 32” long or long circular needles Spare similarly sized needle for grafting shoulder seams Size: One size fits most!
