Rain Shimmer Poncho - Adult - superchunky/superbulky

A very warm, chunky, poncho to wrap up in for that walk by the sea - the yarn shimmers like rain on a cloudy day, wrapping you like a blanket!

Decreasing moss stitch sections, (USA seed stitch), and garter stitch background combine to make a modern, textured look. 2 pieces are knitted flat and sewn together.

The pattern is easy, as all you need to know is how to cast/bind on and off, and knit and purl stitches. There is a diagram and photo to help with the sewing up. Instructions are in English, written out line by line, with British/American terms. Yarn recommendations are given, but superchunky/superbulky yarns, that have a recommended needle size of 7-8mm, should be okay, although this is untested! I have knitted on a size larger than stated for this yarn to give a more fluid result.

Matching items available.
