a poncho question (or two)

Friday, April 1, 2005

So the poncho is coming along nicely. I have just finished the second ball of yarn and I am wondering if anyone can tell me whether 13″ straight down from the cast on edge would be be straight down centre front (ie the pointy bit) or straight down from the shoulder (between the points), because there is a two inch difference and I am confused. And is a poncho still a poncho without a fringe? I am so not looking forward to the fringe….. I hate fringes on my own clothing but I am having trouble imagining this poncho looking properly finished without the fringe.

Carla looks great! Good luck with the Stonington Shawl - I knitted my inside to 50cm which is smaller than EZ recommends but I’m pleased with the size for a baby shawl. Also, it stretched out quite a bit in the blocking process.

The poncho I made for my daughter didn’t have fringe. I would try it on Isabelle and see how it looks without fringe and if it needs extra length, fringe away.
