Instructions
Starting from the left side, cast on 42 sts and work due to the patterns order. The center of work form the upper line of sleeve-shoulder. At the same time from the set-up row, increase 3 x 3 sts, 13 x 2 sts and 15 x 1 st in every 2nd row from both sides for smooth rounding = 142 sts. In 48 cm = 70 rows from the set-up row, divide your work in the middle for neck-hole and continue making each detail separately = 71 sts. Leave sts of front. At the same time from work division, bind off 1 st from the edge of neck-hole for back and 1 x 2 sts in the next 2nd row = 68 sts. In 56,6 cm = 82 rows form the set-up row, the center of back is reached and after that finish neck-hole in symmetry. In 65 cm = 94 rows from the set-up row, leave all 71 sts.
After that, work on previously left 71 sts of front and bind off 2 sts from edge for smooth rounding and 3 x 1 st in every 2nd row = 66 sts. Continue knitting in symmetry from the middle of front. In 65 cm = 94 rows from the set-up row, finish your poncho on all 142 sts. In 113 cm = 164 rows from the set-up row, bind off the rest 42 sts.
