Here's my favorite poncho pattern. I've made approx. 2 dozen since Oct. 2004. The pink one I started on Sat., put it down and finished it today. The brown one was done in a day. Both are made with Bernat's DenimStyle and a K hook. They are fast, easy and oh so comfortably soft.

The brown one is 8 rows longer than the pink. I've made this in ecru/blue, solid brown, solid ecru. I've added a hood to some. Never fringe but have added fun fur to the bottom of some. Sorry, I don't have pics for them because I tend to give them away faster than I can take a picture.

Those look snuggly soft, and I love patterns that work up quick. Thanks for sharing the pattern - I'm sure your giftees love them!

Thanx all! One other thing about these ponchos made with DenimStyle, they are not heavy at all. Very lightweight. So they work great in the spring & summer just as well as the fall & winter. And except for the trim (which I changed from the original pattern), they are done all in dc with increases of 3 at the side points and 3/5 (alternating between rows) at the front & back. They are that easy.

Great job. Nice to see some different styles. I like Bernat Denim, and have some sweaters knit from it.
