| beginning the poncho |
The weather is getting a little colder here, so it's time to make a new wrap. This one will be in poncho style as I've learned that easy on, easy off is valuable in temperatures that fluctuate widely across a single day.
So yesterday saw a little planning, and this morning saw a little more, plus some knitting.

| not shown: the tape measure! |
Three inches of garter stitch on sides and bottom because garter stitch makes a strong design statement. (Take care of the terminals, and the terminals will take care of everything else - the principle Louis Sullivan handed on to the young Frank Lloyd Wright)
The rest to be in stocking stitch with a central panel of diamonds, bounded by - of course - a little more garter stitch.

Unless I don't like the looks of it as I go on! In which case I reserve the right to change anything or everything. This is the advantage of working one-off...!
