Lightweight Crochet Ponchos

crochet asymmetrical poncho

I started crocheting ponchos about 3 years ago.  I had mentioned before that this creation started off as a cowl idea and then walla it turned into a asymmetrical poncho.

I don't know about you but sometimes when I am crocheting I have one thing in mind and I end up with something else and sometimes it’s on purpose.

I have made some recently that are in a super lightweight yarn and super soft.  I found that making it in a bigger stitch pattern (all of these are made in a chain stitch pattern) would make  it airy and lightweight.  My first one I made for myself because I only had one skein of yarn so I wanted to see how long I could get it be in this pattern. I totally love it and it's still in an asymmetrical pattern but short.  I have received so many compliments on this piece.  So after seeing what I could do in this pattern and with one skein of yarn I decided to make one more in white.  The yarn I am talking about is Caron Simply Soft. 

I also decided to create another one using this fabulous yarn that is super soft by Red Heart Boutique Unforgettable.  This one definitely made my cut for super soft yarn.  However, this lightweight poncho I used 2 skeins of this yarn to make these.  These are made to fall right at the waist (unlike my first ones which go mid-thigh).

Anyway, I hope you like my creations here because all of them are created in the same style…asymmetrical. 

These ponchos are so cute you can wear it with a cute t-shirt and jeans or a cute maxi dress and boots or even sandals…at least that’s what I have done in the past when it’s not too cold.

Yolanda's Creations...Ponchos

color: pink with accent trim

Here are some very adorable children's ponchos.  Now I will say this much I commissioned my mom and my mother in law to make these for me.  I tell you some of these creations are just too cute for words.

I know I have told you before that pretty much I make more of adult items then children.  But I do love making my occasional creations for kids.

color: baby blue with white pompoms

Here I actually encouraged both moms to make these for me so that I can show them off (and of course sell them!!). Everyone has their own ways and styles of crocheting and I can tell you that both of these are different in techniques.  I have seen both of them crochet away and all of us do it differently from the stitches to how we hold our crochet hooks.

color: country blue

The baby blue color is made with Red Heart Baby Yarn .  This yarn has a tad bit of a shimmer yarn to it as well (which is the white).  The pink one you see here was made with regular acrylic yarn from Red Heart as well (Super Saver Pretty in Pink). So check out these ever so pretty ponchos that are made ole school way.  I love them!

Here is one of my other creations that I have made to add to my adult collection of ponchos this is Red Heart acrylic yarn in the color of Country Blue.
