The Niami Poncho is a cozy, beginner-friendly knit designed for effortless layering. Worked flat in a CYC #6 super bulky yarn, this pattern comes together quickly and features a relaxed fit with clean lines and subtle texture. It’s an approachable project that delivers a polished, wearable result without complicated shaping or techniques.

This pattern is best suited for knitters who are comfortable with basic skills, including casting on, knitting, and binding off. Although InstaKnit yarn includes pre-formed starter loops, this design uses a traditional cast-on for stitch accuracy and fit. Loop counts can vary by ball, so a standard knitted or long-tail cast-on is required to begin the project.

The Niami Poncho works beautifully with InstaKnit yarn or any comparable super bulky yarn, making it an easy addition to your handmade wardrobe and a satisfying project for confident beginners.
