National Crochet Month Post #11: Poncho

I made this colorful poncho last fall using Lion Brand's Sunset Poncho pattern.  The yarn is called Landscapes and I chose to use the Boardwalk colorway.  What a bold choice that was because I was stared at by many people the first time I dared to wear this in public!

This yarn works up like a dream.  It is super soft and lovely.  My only problem was the pattern itself.  The back of the poncho is just too short to be useful.  It was very easy to follow but I wish there had been a few more rows to cover more.  I will  have to adjust this if I decide to try this pattern again.  Nevertheless, I loved making this cute crocheted poncho.  

Happy crocheting!
