Is it cool outside? Don't panic ... Put this pretty wool poncho on ! Enough to cover you during your fall / winter getaways :-) Here is the tutorial:
Material:
To sew a wool poncho :
- 135cm wool fabric with a minimum width of 140cm
- 50cm heavy jersey or knit fabric
- 1 pair of scissors
Step 1
CUT OUT & UNRAVEL
Cut out 1.35m. of your wool fabric. Unravel 2 sides by 2 cm, leaving the edges (lisière - see picture) intact. During the last step, they will be used for the finishing touch for the bottom of your poncho.
Step 2
PREPARE THE NECKLINE
Fold your fabric in 4. Depending on the size of your head, cut a small arc on the corner for the neckline. To help you, make a mark +/- 10cm on each side of the angle. You will have a circle of +/- 20cm once your piece is unfolded.
Step 3
MAKING THE COLLAR
Take your jersey or knit fabric and cut in a 50x40cm piece. Fold it in half lengthwise, right sides together, then sew the side parallel to the fold.
Fold the piece in 2, wrong side against wrong side, to get your collar 20cm wide by 25cm high.
Step 4
PLACING THE COLLAR
Pin the collar to the opening of the poncho, right sides together, and sew either with a zig zag stitch or with an overlock machine.
Step 5
THE ARMHOLES
Sew the sides of your poncho as shown in the diagram to let your arms pass.
You wool poncho is ready !
See you soon,
