And sunny afternoons.

Funky Chunky Poncho Crochet Pattern | Posh Pooch Designs

 Funky Chunky Poncho 

Crochet Pattern

By Sara Sach of  Posh Pooch Designs

I am so in love with the Funky Chunky Poncho

 Crochet Pattern. 

Yes, I designed this one for me.

It's a quick pattern to stitch up, and has a "Retro

 Hippie Vive to it, which I Love. 

I wanted it to be designed with a super bulky yarn,

 and The Anniversary cakes from Yarnspirations / 

Caron are perfect for this project. Although any Super

 Bulky (6) yarn will work for this project.

I have been working On The Crochet Pattern design 

For About a year. I wanted it to be roomy, comfortable 

and fun to wear, so I designed it in  3 sizes -

Size 1 - XS/S  – 21 inch neck opening
Size 2 – M/ L – 25 inch neck opening
Size 3 – Xl/ 2 XL – 27inch neck Opening

Now remember, everyone's tension might be different,

 so be sure to measure as you go. 

And of course the length is up to you.
