Thank you so much for all your wonderful comments concerning the baby blanket 🙂 I was sooo happy reading each word you wrote 🙂 THANK YOU!
I’ve made some few rounds on my poncho this week end:
Working on this poncho is great 🙂 It is relaxing, and I can take it everywhere with me 🙂
I took these pics in my parent’s house …
I’m loving the colors and the granny stitch is soooo good to work on even when you’re watching T.V or supervising the girl’s homework…
and I saw many of you who joined the poncho’s cal ! woooow! Welcome to you all ….I’m very happy to have you with us crocheting along 🙂 There is already so beautiful beginnings of ponchos on ravelry and on flickr 🙂
Just a quick reminder about the poncho’s cal:

Welcome to you all 🙂 You can join, of course, you can join, even if you already crocheted some, even though it will not be for you, and even if it will be not right now (you have to finish some wips first) You are all welcome 🙂 whenever you want to join I’ll be waiting for you 🙂 and I am very happy to have you all crocheting a long with me this happy piece of clothe 🙂
I’ve added a small and a bigger button with their html codes on my previous post…if you want to grab them and add them to your blog or your website, do not hesitate …they are HERE at the end of the post !
and to my lovely french friends: Rosalie a gentiment propose le pattern en francais pour celles qui le desirent…le debut est un peu different mais le resultat le meme 🙂 Vous pouvez trouver le tuto ICI! Merci infiniment Rosalie 🙂
So, today, I want to share with you the beginning of my poncho…
Let’s take a look at the yarn first…well, do you remember the yarn I showed you in this post ?
Yes, it is the new Nako: the superlambs special a 50%acrylic, 50% wool that I’ll be using for my poncho.
There is 12 colors… deep colors that reminds you the autumn …
and I’ve totally fallen in love with these colors…they are my colors of the moment 😀 hehe
and now, let’s take a peek to the first 4 rounds of the poncho…
I’m crocheting the poncho with a 4.5mm crochet hook. I’ve started it with a chain of 88ch…yes, my head is a little big 😉
Don’t forget: Your beginning chain must be a multiple of 8 and big enough to enter through the head!
I’m very pleased with the first 4 rounds of my poncho 🙂 and I am sooo thrilled about it…when I’m doing things around the house I keep thinking about the moment I will grab my hook and add some rounds 🙂
So, my lovelies, if you did not join us yet, I hope that today you will change your mind 🙂 Come onnnnnnnnnnnn! We are waiting for youuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Good morning sweet people,
As you already guessed from the title of this post, the new cal (crochet-a-long) will be a poncho 🙂 Yes, an adult granny poncho.
As we always crochet for the others, making blankets for all the members of the family and crocheted gifts for our friends, this project is totally selfish. For spring and autumn, a poncho is something special to wear…it makes you warm and happy for no reason 🙂
So, my sweeties, what do you think? Are you in? Are you totally thrilled by this project like myself? I think it will be awesome if once the ponchos are made, to set a particular day so we can all wear our ponchos 🙂 A “poncho day” for you sweet ladies around the world ! I just love this idea 😀
Let’s set up now some rules, shall we? 😉
Rule1: Crochet a granny poncho for yourself. And if it is not your kind of clothing to wear, crochet a poncho for your child, your daughter, your mother or as a gift for a special friend.
Rule2: No date limit to finish the poncho. You can begin it and finish it whenever you want 🙂
Rule3: No special colors to use. It can be very colorful (like mine 😉 ) or crocheted with just one color or two…It is up to you!
Rule4: No special yarn to use also… You can crochet it with acrylic, wool, cotton or whatever you like.
Rule5: Pattern: HERE! It is a granny pattern, very simple and easy to follow. It is a graphic pattern but I tried, yesterday evening to add a small paragraph to it, to explain it with written directions… If you have any problem starting the poncho, don’t hesitate to tell and I will help you. This pattern is totally addictive, you’ll see 😉
If you want to see some crocheted ponchos with this pattern, go here!
So, these were the rules. Are you joining in this fun project? Come one! Let’s spoil ourselves with a poncho! Let it be a selfish project and we will all encourage one another in creating this “happy piece of clothing” to wear on the grayest days 🙂
If you want to join, leave me a comment on this post or here in this flickr discussion or here in this ravelry discussion and tell me if it will be for you or for somebody else and what yarn you’ll be using. Don’t forget to post your blog address if you have one!
I created also a flickr group and a ravelry one so we can all share our pics and progress…
I am sooo happy already 🙂 Come on! Join in! It will be so much fun!
I’m waiting for youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Have a bright and colorful week!
