This asymmetrical poncho was designed for the #10019 Elemental brochure by Sirdar and is striking! We have it on display in the store if you want to see it in person. Knit on large needles with Sirdar’s Elemental yarn, it works up very quickly. The thick and thin texture of the yarn gives interest to the finished fabric, along with just a hint of tasteful glimmer from the tonal metallic thread running throughout.
This cowl-necked poncho is knit flat in one large rectangle and with one simple seam, it effortlessly becomes a closed wrap with a single point that can be worn at the front or off to the side. Offered in 3 sizes, with 5 colourways to choose from.

About the yarn…
Sirdar’s Elemental is a marvelous mix of texture and colour with a tasteful splash of glimmer created from a thin, tonal metallic strand. The soft, wool-blend fibres of Elemental are spun as a single-ply roving with a thick & thin effect that creates an interesting texture even with the simplest of stitches! This super-bulky yarn works up fast to create stunning projects that will WOW your friends and family!

About Katrinkles
“As an independent, female owned and operated business (in Providence, Rhode Island), Katrinkles is proud to provide crafters with high quality buttons and tools for their projects. Our goods are made from durable locally sourced hardwoods like cherry and alder and are finished by hand, giving each piece its unique character. From design to production to packaging, all our products are made in house by our small dedicated team, allowing us to maintain our high standards of quality control and attention to detail at every step. You can feel confident that when you use a tool from Katrinkles, you are using something made with the same level of care that you put into the things you make.
We encourage makers everywhere to be creative by supplying them with unique goods that enhance the joy of making. We are crafters and artisans ourselves, so we know that the right tool can be an inspiration. A thoughtfully designed, well crafted tool facilitates workflow and can reveal new creative pathways. Simply put, our goal is to provide you with the best tools so that you can do your best work.
We use sustainable woods whenever possible, and try to source our materials locally. Katrinkles knitting needle gauges and tools are made of 1/8" woods such as bamboo and birch plywood and cherry hardwood.
Each Katrinkles item has been hand-sanded to smooth out any rough corners and washed to remove any residue from laser cutting. Because bamboo and wood are natural materials each item may vary slightly. ” – quoted from Katrinkles About Us page
So, let’s have a look at all the fun, innovative tools that are now in-stock & available at the store…
First up, hat & garment tags…
These tags are a great way to personalize or sign garments or add a personal touch to hand made items that you’re gifting. Sew them onto garments, hats, mitts, socks, cowls and shawls to embellish your finished projects or add one as a signature tag. They are small enough that they won't take away from your garment but large enough to look really cute.
The tags have a small hole in each corner for ease of sewing onto projects. Crafted from soft, faux suede, these tags are chic & durable.
