Ilga Leja's gentle
poncho Summer in the City is perfect for those cooler days when all you
want is a light, but elegant, cover-up. Easy to work in the round, in an
arrangement of Garter Stitch and wrapped stitches, it will drape you with just
enough welcome warmth.
In its shorter
version, it becomes a shoulder capelet, ready to adorn and shimmer over a simple
tank top or summery blouse.
