This warm, whimsical poncho will be every child's favorite cool-weather cover-up. It's easy to put on and fun to wear. With bulky yarn and large needles, the project will go quickly.
Knit Fairy Tale Poncho Reviewed by Adrienne Atkins on 2010-11-17
Finished this poncho & I am not happy with it. Doesn't resemble the picture. No curve to the shoulders, they came out very square & pointy. I won't make this pattern again.
