Hey guys!! I am still tired from my weekend which started on Thursday Morning so I'm going to do a quick review and go back to bed lol. I will do my wrap up on Tuesday lol. I am VERY behind on emails, so give me a couple of days... please and thank you. LOL The pic is crappy so umm sorry about that. I didn't take it :-)
Pattern Description: Very loose-fitting, unlined ponchos, capes and a self-lined wrap. I made view B:deep cowl collar, asymmetrical hem.
Pattern Sizing: S,M,L
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it? Yes
Were the instructions easy to follow? I didn't even use the directions so I assume they were.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern? I love how easy this is to wear!!
Fabric Used:
A very soft wool blend from Hancock.
Pattern Alterations or any design changes you made:
None, I did make a fabric belt to wear with it, but the pic of it is REALLY crappy so I will take another one with it belted and post it soon.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? I do plan on making this one again in a black wool blend. I LOVE this pattern. It was so easy. I think it took me around an hour to make it. I can't wait to make it again!
Conclusion: This is an OOP pattern so If you can find it, I suggest getting it. I LOVE IT!
That's it for tonight guys! I'm going to bed. Have a great night and a Happy Monday!
Toodles!!!
Poncho looks great - but what kind of jeans are you wearing? I like the width of the leg...

If the temperature there is like it is here in Georgia I know the pancho came in handy today. Of course I have that pattern, I want to make one of the shorter views. It looks good on you.
