lace pattern for poncho |
The original poncho came from Peru.
The poncho was not knitted but made from woven cloth, with symmetrical motifs from nature.
Textiles in the Andes are an important social and ethnic marker and a significant part of the cultural patrimony.
Each community uses a different combination of designs and colors that reflect their connection with the earth through agriculture, cosmology, and
other aspects of nature.
Documenting patterns and their meaning is a recent phenomenon. As more and more people leave their rural communities of birth for consumer-focused
city life, weaving traditions are being lost.
Their art features highly abstracted figures, that originally expressed real places, animals, or cultural events
but over time became icons with symbolic meaning.
Most of the intricate, interlocked geometric patterns were already made around 500 A.D.Descended from the wild vicuña, alpaca resemble a cross
between a llama and a sheep.
Its fleece is similar to sheep's wool, but is usually softer, less prickly, and has minimal lanolin content,
making it virtually hypoallergenic. Its extreme warmth, relatively light weight, and natural resistance to water
make alpaca wool an ideal fabric for the frigid winters of the Andean altiplano.
These qualities have also led to a rise in the use of alpaca fiber in outdoor gear and active wear,
although it is also easily spun into a fine enough yarn for use in suits and other dress wear.
Most alpaca yarns can be treated as you would with yarn made of sheep's wool;
so hand wash using a mild soap and lukewarm water.

FRINGE:
Shawls, Afghans and Ponchos can have an optional fringe worked around the outside. This is a simple and quick finish to a shawl, afghan, blanket or poncho.
Fringes are not recommended for small children (for example, baby blankets) as the threads may work loose and could choke a child.
A fringe is usually worked as cut threads, but can also be worked as loops, which may be simply stranded threads, knitted-in loops or a long crocheted
chain. Check your favorite knitting/crochet reference book for other methods.
The simplest way to work a cut fringe is as follows:
- Cut many pieces of yarn just over twice the desired length of the fringe.
- Pick up as many strands at one time as you want to have in one tassel (usually 1, 2 or 3 strands).
- Hold them even, at the center.
- Work a crochet hook through the outer stitch (two threads) of the shawl (right side facing), place the center of the strands in the hook, pull the strands
through that stitch and out a bit to form a loop, then collect the doubled strands in the hook and pull them through the loop just formed. Pull snug,
and you have one tassel of the fringe.
- Repeat all around the perimeter (try every st for one strand, every one or two stitches for two strands, and every two or three stitches for two or
more strands).
- Trim fringe to an even length all around.
The quantity of yarn estimate for fringes can vary dramatically. The estimate given is based on two strands worked on every stitch. For example, if you
are making the fringe on every other stitch, you would only need half of this. |
