Crochet Poncho Progress: One Week Update

🧶I decided to make a crochet poncho inspired by a beautiful one I saw at a market.

🌈I chose a lovely combination of colors, including antique teal, cream, and variegated teal, to match my branding and personal style.

👩‍💻I followed a free YouTube tutorial to create the poncho, making adjustments for the weight of the yarn I used.

🧣Instead of a full cowl neck, I opted for a mock turtleneck to provide warmth without feeling too tight.

🌸I'm loving the texture created by the front post and back post treble crochet groups, and it adds a boho vibe to the poncho.

How long did it take you to finish the mock turtleneck?

—The mock turtleneck took a couple of days of working on it during my lunch breaks.

What size hook did you use?

—I used a 5.5mm hook for this project.

Why did you choose those specific yarn colors?

—I wanted colors that matched my branding and personal style, and I found the antique teal, cream, and variegated teal to be the perfect combination.

How will you finish the poncho?

—After completing the treble crochet groups, I will continue to work on the body of the poncho, adding more rows and possibly some fringe along the bottom.

Do you have any tips for beginners who want to make a similar project?

—My advice would be to find a free tutorial that matches your vision and make adjustments as needed. Don't be afraid to experiment with colors and patterns to make the project your own.
