ABOUT
Say hello to the Quail Ridge Poncho, your new favorite transitional layering piece featuring a clean, mitred V-neck and a wide center panel of squishy honeycomb cables running lengthwise down the front and back panels. In this pattern, you’ll explore cables, ribbing, stockinette, and garter stitch, keeping you engaged the whole way through. Plus, it is knit all in one piece, meaning there is no seaming involved!
