Fashion Doll Poncho Pattern

The pattern includes both US and UK terms. You may create items for both personal and business uses. The only thing I ask is that you not claim the pattern as your own. Thanks.

This would be a good piece for a beginning knitter. It is all garter stitch. To increase, knit and purl into the same stitch. To decrease, knit two stitches together.

Materials: Dollar Tree Crater’s Square 100% acrylic princess yarn.  Green

There is no size on this, but it seems to work up like a size 1 sock yarn.

#3 Knitting needles (3.25mm)

At the widest point I had 4.5 inches (11.03 cm) so about 6.9 st per inch. (2.45 cm).

With #3 (3.25mm) cast on 3 sts. (This is the bottom of the poncho.)

Work in garter st (k every row).

Inc 1 st both ends every other row until there are 31 sts on needle.

Then dec 1 st at the beginning of each row until 12 sts remain on needle.

Then change to ribbing of k1, p1 for 5 rows.

Bind off in ribbing very loosely.

Make another piece exactly the same.

To join the two pieces, sew decreased edges together and the ribbing.

Fringe:

Cut yarn in desired lengths and with a crochet hook, loop a piece in every st along bottom edge.
