It went very quickly and I finished one and almost another since last week
and really didn't work much on them.

I've been asked to make two more ponchos and one is for a 7 year old (upon
showing her mine and putting it over her shoulders she looked up and said
"make me one!"), so maybe I'll take a look at some of the children's
patterns now!

I am going to attempt this one as well. My daughter wants one, so why not
try. I had printed this from the same site. There are others on the same
site that are pretty cute for little ones.

This is the one my roommate and I are making:
http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com...poshponcho.php

Both the patterns we considered making are new patterns, not vintage
ones.
The popular ponchos are mostly the more open, just for fashion, not for
warmth type garments. They're also shorter than a lot of the vintage
patterns I found. This one works up pretty quick; after you get past
the
band at the top, it goes very fast...last night was slow crocheting
because
I had to keep stopping to help my roommate with her crocheting...at
least
that's going better than the knitting lesson I tried to give last
winter!

Heya everyone,

I lurk in this group a lot :-). Just wanted to ask about the crocheted
ponchos which are supposedly in fashion right now - what do they look
like?
Any pictures that I could look at?

Thanks,
Angela
