As part of the recent School of Making update, The Starter Poncho Kit was introduced to the DIY Sewing Kit collection. Perfect for novice and advanced sewers alike, The Starter Poncho is a versatile cover-up and a great layering piece to help carry your wardrobe into the colder season. The simple placement of the stencil is a perfect way for beginner sewers to get a start in the Alabama Chanin-style of stitching and appliqué while still offering a striking, heirloom garment.
The kit, available in 20 colorways and with your choice of the Magdalena, Abstract, Anna’s Garden, or New Leaves stencils, offers a variety of style options for all makers starting on the path towards a sustainable and hand-crafted wardrobe.
This ever-popular poncho is featured in Alabama Studio Sewing + Design, where you can find the instructions and design inspiration for The Starter Poncho Kit.
As always, for a truly customized making experience, we welcome you to explore our Custom DIY Sewing Kits.
