Fall Colors Ponchette - Poncho Crochet Pattern

The Fall Colors Ponchette Crochet Pattern
 By Sara Sach of
 Posh Pooch Designs

This is a perfect addition to your Fall Wardrobe!

It adds a touch of Autumn, and a little warmth to 
keep the chill off your shoulders.

I Love to ride in our convertible on cool Fall evenings, 

and I actually designed this poncho for me.

I kept it simple with a big button.

What is a  Ponchette? It is a Poncho that is a little Shorter

 than an average Poncho. Although, you can make the ponchette

 as long as you like.

Any WW(4) yarn can be used For This Project.

This is my new favorite item that I have Designed. 

I hope you love it too!

We Just Retetested and updated the Pattern to include 6 Sizes - XS - 2 XL
