Modifications:

Made the poncho much longer than specified in the pattern. I think I changed the increase rate at some point, to slow down the increases so it wouldn't be too wide.

Comments:

I made this as a Christmas present for Niece#3. I really like the way the colors mix in the seed stitch border on this poncho.

that's a lot of knitting
