Poncho Mercado

Grab your market basket, then get cozy and classy at the same time when you throw on this hand-knit shorty poncho with basketweave motifs, finished with corner tassels for extra flair and fun. This poncho rocks the texture with a Basketweave Seed Stitch (it’s easier than it looks!), and the stranded colorwork basketweave border is total eye candy. Tassels make it feel half poncho, half magic carpet!

Knitted with Kelbourne Woolens Scout, you'll need 4 skeins of the main color (shown here in Ocean Heather) and one each of the contrasting colors (Coral Heather and Wheat Heather).
