The Poncho Sweater was inspired by the cheerful, striped folk ponchos of Central America. A raglan sweater with a twist, the Poncho Sweater uses simple increases and decreases to create a bias fabric with attractive downward-pointing chevrons. Flattering for all figures, the Poncho Sweater pairs with jeans for an informal look or a long skirt for an evening out.

 

The KnitFitter Poncho Sweater app generates patterns to fit from infant to Women's 50" chest in yarns ranging from sock weight to bulky. 

 

The Poncho Sweater is knit top-down in the round so you can try the sweater for fit as you go. A straightforward knit, the Poncho Sweater is perfect for anyone who can knit, purl, and work a few basic increases and decreases. Detailed, easy-to-follow instructions guide you through all of the pattern steps. Zoomable in-progress photos show you exactly what to expect.

 

Especially attractive in variegated yarn, the style flows naturally from the construction.
