This poncho came about out of a desire to make something for my bonus granddaughter, Chelsea, who is thirteen. I made two baby blankets for her soon-to-be-born baby sister, and I wanted to incorporate the same colors in this poncho, but it had to be in a way that would be appealing to a teenager. This is a great companion piece to the blankets whether for a big sister or a mommy! I absolutely love this and plan to make one for myself. It’s a super fast and easy pattern - easily adjustable for size and whatever colors you like. As written, the poncho measures 46” from top corner to top corner and 24” from neckline to bottom corner, but be aware that I crocheted this very, very loosely. You will need 1 skein of Lion Brand Pound of Love in Oxford Grey, 1 skein of Lion Brand Baby Soft in Petal, 1 skein of Lion Brand Baby Soft in Pansy, 1 skein of Lion Brand Baby Soft in Pastel Yellow, and 1 skein of Lion Brand Baby Soft in Mint. You will use very little of the Baby Soft colors so feel free to substitute with what you have on hand.
