Chunky Seamless Poncho Using Lang Cloud

The Design “Cuddle up in a cloud!” We really stepped up the cuddle with the Chunky Seamless Poncho. At the same scale as our beloved Easy Folded Poncho, but with the clever, seamless construction of our Seamless Poncho, we’ve knit this Churchmouse Classic at a chunky gauge. Our pattern includes options for a ribbed edging, as well as a nice, squishy ribbed cowl if you’d like some extra warmth around your neck! For this Chunky Seamless Poncho, we used the exuberantly self-striping Lang Cloud. This chunky-weight yarn is 90% merino extra fine virgin wool, with a 10% touch of strengthening nylon. Long washes of shifting color—from warm autumnal tones, to sunset pinks and oranges, to bright, happy rainbows—make for fun, gradient stripes in your knitted fabric. Let the yarn do the work!
