Poncho.

Start with the turtle neck, the poncho is knitted

from the top down. Cast on 88(96)100(104)112

(116) sts on circular needles US 8/UK 6 and knit

ribbing (knit 1, purl 1) When the collar measures

26 cm, increase 8 sts evenly spread, while knitting

all sts knit wise = 96(104)108 (112)120(124) sts.

Put a marker in contrasting color at the beginning

of the round. Weave in the marking thread along

the work, f. ex. Every 4th row – it is not that easy

counting rows in Fake Fur. Now continue like so:

1. round: Knit 1, 1 yarn over, *

20(22)23(24)26(27) knit sts, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1

yarn over, repeat from * another 2 times and end

with 20(22)23(24)26(27) knit sts, 1 yarn over and

1 knit sts.

You made 8 increases in total =

104(112)116(120)128(132) sts.

2. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

3. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

4. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

5. round: Knit 1, 1 yarn over, *

22(24)25(26)28(29) knit sts, 1 yarn over, 2 knit, 1

Yarn over, repeat from * another 2 times and end

with 22(24)25(26)28(29) knit sts, 1 yarn over and

1 knit sts = 112(120)124(128)136(140) sts.

6. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

7. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

8. round: Knit all sts and yarn overs.

Continue like this, increasing on every 4th row

until you have 84(88)93(98)102(107) sts

stockinette between the corner sts =

31(32)34(36)37(39) increases after the turtle neck

= 344(360)380(400) 416(436) sts.

Edge: Now knit 6 rounds in garter stitch

(alternately 1 round knit sts and 1 round purl sts)

and then fasten off all the sts loosely, so the edge

gets the same elasticity as the poncho.

If you wish to knit the poncho longer, you should

count more yarn. Continue the increases, until you

are satisfied with the length on the poncho. Then

finish with the edge of 6 rounds garter stitch as

described.
