PATTERN NOTES
Skill Level: Advanced Beginner
Sizing: This #SizeInclusive poncho is written in five sizes as follows: XS (S/M, L/XL, 2X/3X, 4X/5X). Make sure to follow the numbers for your size only. See next page for sizing information.
Stitch Counts: Stitch counts are listed after each row. If no stitch count is given, there has been no change since the previous row.
Reversible: There is no right side or wrong side; both sides are identical. Whichever side you choose to wear as the “right side” is your preference.
Turning Chain: When the turning chain is a ch-3, it counts as 1 double crochet, but when the turning chain is a ch-1, it does not count as a stitch.
