Easy Crochet Poncho Pattern from Casale Crafts

This easy crochet poncho is made from two simple rectangles crocheted in the block stitch. The block stitch is easy to do; it uses basic chains, single crochets, and double crochets, and you will change colours in every row. It doesn’t mention it in the pattern, but when working the block stitch, I like to carry the unused colour and work over it to avoid weaving in lots of ends. A quick Google search for carrying the yarn in the block stitch will bring up tutorials to show you how to do this.

SIZE: One size that is easy to adjust – 30″ x 30″ (76 cm x 76 cm).
YARN WEIGHT: #4 medium/worsted weight yarn, e.g., Loops & Thread Impeccable Tweed and Red Heart Soft.
