#6. Braided Poncho Knitting Kit
This design is half a nod to those cute fall fashion vibes with its doe brim collar, but it also subtly reminds me of a caroling jacket that I used to wear as a kid ublwhen I went door to door around Christmas time with the cables at the bottom. Note: This poncho is knit top down. After finishing the double brim collar, you will knit your way through the body in a top down raglan type style. Once the bodice is completed, you will work the braided cable like an applied border of a shawl.
