Fall is my favorite season. I love the blue skies, cool evenings and changing colors of the leaves. This Textured Fall Poncho is perfect for changing weather. Wear it to that Friday night football game or the Saturday afternoon soccer game.

I used about 2 ½ Caron Cakes in Plum Crisp to make this one-size poncho but change to any worsted weight yarn as you desire. If you need it larger, just keep going until it's long enough for you. I'm somewhere around a medium or large.

I’ve made this pattern for myself and I love it! I wear it all the time. I’d like to make one for my 13-year-old niece but I’d need to make the neck opening smaller. What is the starting multiple, please?
Mikey says
We are still trying to work that out. The neck has 2 corners in it... so it complicates it in the multiples. We are trying to see if there are other patterns out there. Michael
