Gorgeous patterns as always! I'm feeling the need to make the poncho immediately even though cool weather seems to be just out of reach here in TX.

I am off to send my mom a link to your blog. She is *still* telling everyone about her daughter got to go meet her favorite designer in LA. LOL

Thanks for sharing the pattern for the Q Hook Poncho! I love it! I made one out of some Soft Delights Yarn Bee Yarn and it didn't even take a full 2 skeins and since I got the yarn on sale, this poncho took me less than $4 to make!!! I am currently making another one with a different color to wear to my nieces wedding next week!

I have Mexican friends and they had given some ponchos to me, and the other day a Russian friend Sildenafil was at my place and he saw one of the ponchos and he asked what that was for and when I told him he wanted to have one and make one on his own so I will pass this post to him!

I'm having a hard time with this poncho...the stitches are super easy, so that's not it. But the length is just not long enough.it doesn't even reach my hip bone, and its not asymmetrical...Im using the bernat yarn and the right size hook...is there anything you can think of that I'm doing wrong?

If you can, would you please explain in more detail how to sew the poncho together? I am folding it in half length-wise, but not quite sure how to get it stitched up correctly so it lays asymmetrical. Thanks!
