Knit in the round this classic short poncho is styled after the Cedar Ponchos of the Coastal Tribes of the North West.

It is designed as a short poncho so that the hem hits right at the bent elbow. Making it practical for working or walking.

The four colours are used fairly evenly in the poncho, so the yardage needed is approx. 125 to 175 yds of each colour.
