Sand And Sea Poncho Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 Sand And Sea Poncho 
Crochet Pattern 
By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

I designed The Sand And Sea Poncho a little over 10 
Years ago. I decided it was time to retest the pattern, 
and redesign it with some new yarns. I really love how
 the updated pattern turned out. I hope you will as well.
The original Pattern was only written in 1 Size 
We have worked hard to adjust the Pattern 
 to roomy sizes of XS - 4 X.


I chose to update the Crochet Pattern with Premier Yarn's
Basix Marl Yarn, the color is called Caribbean Marl.
It has beautiful waves of aqua blue running through it like
a tropical beach. I used the Premier Basix yarn for the top
and bottom accent in the color Nutmeg to represent
 the sandy tropical beaches.




Both These Yarns are soft And comfy, but not too heavy.
You Can See all The Colors By 
Clicking My Premier Yarn LINK


The Sand And Sea Poncho is so comfy to wear. It is great 
for everyday wear over a sun dress or tank top. It also
 makes a lovely bathing suit cover up. You will look super cute in this poncho no matter how you chose to wear it.
