The Hooded Poncho is perfect for those chilly days to be paired with a long sleeve top and some gloves to keep you stylish with the comfort of being wrapped in a squishy blanket. This is also great for the person who does not like a traditional winter coat, or the warm natured person that wears a coat out of practical reasons during the coldest days. And since Punxsutawney Phil said we would have six more weeks of winter and it was snowing in the western part of North Carolina this week, the timing is perfect.

I used an easy stitch pattern that creates texture and visual appeal of an intermediate level, but it’s easy enough for an advanced beginner.

Finished Dimensions: 35” length x 38” w, excluding the hood and sleeves

Notes:
-This poncho is started with foundation double crochet. If you prefer to start with a chain, create a chain length per pattern row 1 + 2, and then dc across in each stitch.
-The poncho is made in one piece starting with the right side.
-This item can be made smaller or larger by adding fewer or more rows for the width
-Due to the stitch pattern, it is helpful to use a row counter or some means or tracking completed rows to ensure correct size.
