The poncho is made to look like a pumpkin fresh out of the patch, complete with “ridges” throughout the body of the poncho. The top part of the poncho, the cowl-like portion that sits on the neck, is made to look like a weathered, rustic stem. To top it all off, the pattern features instructions on how to make curly green “vines”, which really accentuates the authentic pumpkin look!

The pattern calls for 7 skeins of medium weight yarn. Stitches used are the double crochet, front post double crochet, single crochet, chain stitch, and slip stitch. The pattern includes a full list of all the supplies needed to completed the project.

The poncho is one size fits most for women/teens; approx. 29” width by 25” length (including stem/cowl).

Gauge: 3 dc and 2 rnds = 1 inch
