Would you make this?

[JCB]

I think it's totally cute and I wish I could pull off that kind of look.

I think it's mis-modled though. It's more of a going out to a club kind of thing, over a tank top. It does look kind of dopey over a long sleeved T

That was my reaction too. I could see it over a plain black long slinky dress to go to a gallery opening or a club... not over jeans! I think it's kind of cool, but I love really avant-garde looking stuff. But, no... I wouldn't wear it on my fluffy self

To quote President Lincoln, more or less, who said this to an acquaintance when asked for an opinion after reading the man's novel:

 

"For the people who like that sort of thing, that is just the sort of thing those people would like."

Excellent quote!

I saw it in the mag and thought hmm pretty strange I don't get it but whatever floats your boat

[Qmare]

I just had a vision of getting caught up in every door handle or knob in sight.

I remember an apron, I had, with a pocket and I was forever getting the pocket hooked up in the knob on my board which slides out of my kitchen bench. I stopped wearing aprons becaues of it.

That Poncho would certainly have you stopping in your tracks, quite often in a day.

Very cute but hardly practical.

Have fun.

:rofl:rofl

 

So True!!!

 

Actually, though, it would be cute to wear to an art festival!

[shella85222]

Living in this small town, I dont think people here could handle that... So no I don't think it would be something I could or would ever wear... Sure not my style.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw it. On the right person, in the right situation, it would look great. Alas, I am not that person.

[melissacrochets]

I would wear it but not just anywhere. I wouldn't wear it to work.

[mwedzi]

don't know if i would feel like crocheting it, but yeah, i would definitely wear it. and you can best believe, i'd look fabulous in it.

[kellyv]

Oh yes that is something I would wear!! But then again I have very different taste than most!!

[tlisley]

I would make it and wear it! I'm not exactly afraid of attention...lol... I'm a "theatre" person, artsy and strange...lol.

[Yammy]

Totally mis-modelled. Really should be over a tank for club wear for sure.

[Twinnish]

It looks unfinished. I think if it had a little more shaping and was made in a glittery yarn or thread, it would look cute over the right little black dress. I probably wouldn't wear it, though. I am sort of beyond, let's just say, the little black dress stage of my life.

[Ellie 13]

Ok, as I was flipping through the new Interweave Knits Crochet I happened upon an ad for Goddess Yarns. Now really, if I wanted to sell yarn, I don't know that I would use this as my calling card.

Is it just me? Would you make this? I'm not trying to knock it, honestly. I mean, I know we all have different tastes in things but I can't see anyone wearing something like this... Is it just me???

 

I think it's called "free style" or "scrumble" crochet. It looks to lacy to be usefull. If you made it more like a vest it might be o.k.

[Sylviaf]

I would have worn it as a young woman and could see it on one of my teens. I love things that are different.

[CityGirl]

Definitely not. And shella85222, I don't think it's just your small town... that's the kind of thing I'd expect to see on tourists in Times Square who would think that it's just *so* New York City.

[Aggie May]

I am having another dip into this pot.

Others have mentioned wearing it to a Night Club. I have now got this picture of a girl, using it as a pick-up line.

A line of men she has picked up by getting their watches hooked through the loops.

As long as she realises they are there BEFORE she goes into the Little Girls Room.

Can anyone else see this picture?

Have fun.

One would wear it as a fashion statement rather than as something functional, ie, to cover up or keep warm.

That's my thought on a lot of ponchos out there.

 

Personally I wouldn't wear it. However I do agree, it's advertised all wrong.

[diamond]

Call me weird or whatever, but I actually like it. I think it's a very trendy poncho and would definately wear it. I think made in a solid color as it's shown, worn over a black slip dress, it would look fabulous. I would definately make it and wear it. And so ya know, although I feel like I'm in my late twenties, 50 is around the corner for me.

[jaclim]

I love that poncho! I'd definitely make one and wear it! It's unique!

[yarnlover66]

I would wear it, but I probably wouldn't take the time to make it.

[DainaJ]

Yes, I would. I like it. But I can't stand pastels, country style, teddy bears, lace, etc., so that's more my style.

[Poochie]

Ummmmmmm....no. Not my thing...it's pretty cool though!

[Lynn]

Never in a million years! Just not me. I like softer styles I guess

[Niccers]

I like it. It would be nice to wear to a club or over a little black dress somewhere nice as pp's have said.

 

I would not be caught dead in it with jeans and a long sleeved T.
