Original Pattern: Indigo Frost

Knitter Extraordinaire: Dawn (Ravelry ID)

Mods: Knitted the original poncho pattern, then ripped back to the yoke and revamped it as a sweater. Details can be found on her project page, here.

What Makes This Awesome:  Dawn was one of the original test knitters of this pattern, and knit the poncho in pattern. Finding that she doesn’t really wear ponchos, she decided to rip back to the yoke and rework it as a sweater. I love that she kept the original elements with the eyelet fabric, and also chose the colour scheme to match forget-me-not flowers. The result is fantastic! Sometimes I see amazing ponchos and wonder if I’m a poncho person, but this would be a great idea to try- if you knit a poncho and find it isn’t quite right, you could rip back and re-work as a sweater. Worth an experiment if it turned out this lovely!
