A classic casual poncho knitted in a 100% cotton yarn which looks and feels like linen.
Knitted in a fine gauge it has a lovely drape, meaning that its one size style looks good on any size from a UK 10 to an 18.
The colour is a light terracotta, with a pretty marl, for a perfect Summer vibe!
The slash neckline which measures 32cm can be draped to form a cowl effect. There is a side vent measuring 20cm.
Size (doubled over): 85cm long x 75cm wide. All measurements are approximate.
This gorgeous, high quality poncho was destined for landfill, as it was rejected at the end of production due to a slight imperfection. I personally carefully inspect all of the 'imperfect' garments that I sell to ensure that any faults are imperceptible and won't affect the quality of the design or its wearability. When possible, if I find a visible imperfection, I will invisibly mend it in my Somerset workshop. Any garments that I cannot mend are up cycled into new designs.
This is a brand new garment that has never been worn.
Yarn blend:-
100% cotton certified by the Greenpeace Detox Campaign.
Greenpeace launched the “Detox My Fashion” campaign in July 2011 to expose the hidden link between the textile manufacturing facilities in Asia and the release of hazardous chemicals into the environment and to urge the commitment of top clothing brands to create toxic-free fashion (Greenpeace 2011).
Manufacturing details
This garment was knitted in Italy using top quality Italian spun yarn, which has been finished to allow for machine washing. If washed carefully, it will look like new for a long time!
Care Instructions:-
Machine wash at 30C on a cycle that is suitable for delicates. Short spin and reshape whilst damp. Dry flat, or if this isn't possible hang over a thick towel on an airer. A few shots of steam once dry will remove any wrinkles, and your poncho will look like new!
