The CO edge is the height, height measures from the shoulder to the waist.

Pattern, Knit Flat {Back & Forth}:
CO the number of STS from the “Size” section above.
Row 1 {WS}: WYIF S1PW, *P*, WYIF S1PW
Row 2 {RS}: K1TBL, *K*, K1TBL
Repeat rows 1-2 until recommended or desired length.
BO loosely.
Weave in the ends.
No blocking necessary.
Sew Seam to Create Poncho:
Fold it in half bringing the CO & BO edges together {do not sew this edge}. Starting at the top outside edge, whip stitch the front and back together, leaving enough of a gap for your head to fit through. You can leave the opening a little larger if you’d like to show a little shoulder. ;)
Pro tip:
If you’re a beginner knitter, you don’t have to K1TBL, just knit it, or WYIF S1PW, just purl it. This yarn is super forgiving, so don’t let those stitches discourage you from knitting this lovely poncho!
