Day to Night Poncho

Lion Brand® Homespun® - Incredible®

GAUGE:

9 dc + 5 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] with Homespun on smaller hook.
9 dc + 5.5 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] with Incredible on larger hook. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Made completely in Incredible yarn

Made entirely in Homespun

Day to Night Poncho Reviewed by Susan on 2011-07-15 *****
I made this is all Homespun Tudor. I love it! I tend to crochet looser than average and even though I used a smaller hook I still came out with a beautiful, long and swirling cape effect, though I needed two extra skeins. I love it and can't wait for winter to wear it!
