Fabulous Crocheted Ponchos


Book Description

Two hot trends combine in one classic collection: the popular poncho and the hip craft of crochet. And these 33 designs take the versatile wardrobe staple to new heights of sophistication: they feature a range of neckline and hem variations, and come in a variety of yarns, including novelty types like ribbon, faux suede, and fur. Some are long, others short; some are dressy, others just made for a fancy night on the town. And the majority are one size fits all. With the help of a well-illustrated basics section, brand-new or out-of-practice crocheters can confidently pick up their needles and create an open-weave poncho with sleeves and cuffs, a wrap-up for winter, a shimmering gold lacy poncho, and other showstoppers.




Snappy Wraps to Crochet


Book Description

Summertime, and the living is breezy! These warm-weather accessories are so soft and light, you'll almost forget you're wearing them. All four designs -- three lacy short ponchos and a triangular shawl -- were crocheted with satiny yarns. The ponchos are each worked in one piece circularly from the top down. The colors are reminiscent of saltwater taffy and butter mints, but these little treats would look just as lovely in patriotic hues of red, white, and blue. So when the mercury rises, reach for your summertime poncho. You'll look cool and carefree in your own lacy creation. Stapled; 8 pages.
