The Flower Bouquet Poncho combines a relaxed, wearable shape with raised vertical stitches and a border of three-dimensional roses and leaves. The main body is worked in the round, before the floral section is added in contrasting shades and the neckline is finished with neat ribbing.
The sample is designed by Pınar Çelik (@sirinscrocet) and made with Utopia Crafts Perfect Aran in cream, pink and green. You can keep the soft floral palette or choose three completely different shades to create your own version.
The foundation is worked in multiples of ten, making the pattern easy to adjust. The sample uses an 80-chain foundation and 32 body rounds, but the length can be changed to suit your preferred fit.
