Hi there!

I usually work with lightweight yarn, so when I got my hands on Tea Time XL, I wondered how my intricate designs would work with bulky, fluffy yarn. And I loved the result!

This poncho is a super versatile garment that will keep you warm and cozy. It’s crocheted in one piece and then folded, and fits most sizes.

This is not a beginners’ pattern, but I’ve tried to add as much detail as possible and step-by-step pictures for every row, as well as a step-by-step guide for the final folds and adjustments.

Yarn & Hook size: For the step-by-step pictures I used Hobbii Tea Time XL with a 5mm hook, but you can use whatever yarn & hook size you like, as long as they match and the gauge is correct

Gauge: 11 dc and 6 rows in 10 cm

Difficulty: intermediate
