Follet

Poncho

A really warm poncho to wear all winter however cold it gets.

It would work marvelously over Craquante meaning it can be worn for longer ;-)

A big collar decorates the front.

A big hood, just how I like them, to not take things too seriously and to cope with drizzly winter days.

A 'pois plume' enjoys twirling on the end of the hood!

Follet is edged with contrasting bias binding to bring out the corners.

It is worn here over a really simple little skirt (an elasticated rectangle).

It is made up of two layers of wool to be really cosy.

The front opening is closed with 3 buttons.
