Dirty Chai is a long tunic length poncho. The model (it’s me!) is 5’ 6” and the number of repeats worked (size Medium/11 total length repeats) creates an almost knee-length garment. The buttons on the sides are non-functional. There are instructions for a reinforced buttonhole in the stitch guide if you want to place real button holes on the front of the piece. If you do this I would suggest placing the first buttonhole after third 16-row repeat of the front (or the second repeat if you plan to subtract repeats for a shorter garment).
