The Gippsland Poncho

Released just in time for World Wide Knit In Public Day. A simple but highly textured poncho that was originally designed and made just for myself with no intention of releasing the pattern. However a couple of friends have convinced me otherwise so here it is! ~~~~~~ **One size only** though with sufficient yarn you may wish to repeat some charts to make it larger/longer. **Gauge** Not measured. Yarn is held one strand of each worked together. I used the yarns listed above: approximately 560 metres of Athena (now discontinued) and 631 metres (3 balls) of Regia. The neckline was worked solely in two strands of Athena but I chose to occasionally work charts in two strands of the Regia - hence the variation of meterage between the two yarns listed. **Needles & Notions** 4mm circular needle in 40cm, 60cm and 80cm lengths to accommodate stitch count Cable needle Tapestry needle **Knowledge** Ability to cast on and work in the round, basic cables (one short chart only), M1 increases. This pattern has NOT been tested but I have knit a second project without issue. ~~~~~~ Don't wish to work with two strands together? Just work in a single strand of DK or Worsted weight instead which will require approximately half the meterage mentioned above. A single colour is soooo boring - work each chart in different colours which is a great way to use up leftovers. Wish to make the poncho longer? Just repeat/continue your favourite charts ensuring the stitch count hasn’t changed. #thegippslandponcho
