Schatzi is a cable encrusted poncho with a modern edge. The central cable panel is flanked by fields of seed stitch with a garter stitch border.  A poncho is the simplest of pullovers as it has no sleeves - easy on easy off - with a very cozy shawl collar for keeping warm.  Schatzi means treasure - knit this for yours!

This pattern is part of the 10 TINY KNITS collection. It is available to purchase as a single pattern or as part of the ebook collection.

Please note the stitch patterns used in this poncho are worked from charts.
