Simple and classic, this poncho is sure to become a fast favorite accessory. A unique ribbed edge borders one side of the intriguing twisted texture, which creates a fabric with exceptional drape. It’s super soft and squishy, and pairs as effortlessly with an elegant dress as with a pair of leggings. And it works up quickly enough that you just may make another in a different color!
