For the 2019 holiday season I give to you the Fika Poncho pattern. Using the same stitch pattern as my Fika Cowl, the Fika Poncho is easy and quick to crochet with an easy-to-memorize one-row repeat.

I crocheted my poncho in a sport weight yarn that gives the poncho a beautiful drape. The stitch pattern starts with what I call a “starting sequence” that is much quicker and easier than crocheting a long starting chain. And, it adds a nice scalloped edge to the starting edge rather than a straight edge, so that the starting edge will match the final scalloped edge.

I used the lovely 100% organic wool, Aegean Tweed by Cascade Yarns®. You will need two and a half to three skeins, depending on the size made. Check out all of the beautiful colors of the Aegean Tweed yarn here.

This is a project that you can work on without any stress and the stitch pattern is very easy to memorize. So, you can enjoy crocheting this pattern while visiting with friends, while traveling, or if you just want a totally stress-free project for yourself or for gifting!
