Back of the Envelope Pattens - Square Poncho

pink poncho.jpgAs I have mentioned before, I am addicted to magazines. This time of year, I buy anything that says ''New Fall Fashion.'' The Vogue magazine is as big as a telephone book, and I devour every page including the ads. I was thrilled when I saw the poncho trend re-emerging. They are the perfect accessory and practical, too. What could be better? As it turns out, we also have a terrific collection of sweater knits thanks to our Apparel Buyer, Elizabeth. That's what this poncho is made from. You could also used solid knits, lace or any fabric that has a little stretch and looks the same on both sides. I've created simple Back of the Envelope instructions to create a Square Poncho likedy-split!

I, too, was delighted to see the poncho (and ruana, and cape) return again, they are such versatile and comfortable accessories! This is a fun rendition of it, and thanks for letting me know that Fabric.com has sweater knits. Sniff? Sniff? Do I smell a birthday gift coming up? I think I do!
