Thanks Rachel! My niece wants five by the end of tomorrow. She's 6½ years old. I think she'll be fine with settling with one in a week or so.

Right now I should be frantically making "rugs and carpets" for a dollhouse... I thought I had until mid-January but turns out the birthday is on the 5th My darling niece will have to wait a couple of days until I can get started on one for her. )

I haven't even tried a poncho yet! Pretty behind I know. Maybe after Christmas, or will the trend be over then?

That's what everybody is wondering. I say if you like them, wear them. I recently acquired two and I have to say they're fun. )

i am with you rachel who cares about trend.. i guess i march to a different drummer.. i wear what i want ..

I love the patterns at Michael's site I have yet to make a poncho for anyone other than my 3 year old...I used a pattern from Easy Knitting..just used a small hook to fit her. It turned out cute.

 

I'm just finished the baby blanket I was working on..now I'm on the sweater..then hat and booties. After this big project I have a few hat patterns I'm designing. I am LOVING this working without a pattern stuff, :yay2

Even if ponchos aren't "in", I don't see what's the harm in wearing them. They're perfect if I want to dress up a little/keep my shoulders warm.

 

Soo...I just smile when so many people say, "Will they go out of style?" because it really doesn't matter, to me, whether they do or not. )

[Ambersafghans]

I don't care about if I wear is "in style" (Most of it I am sure isn't) But for selling I need to know if it is or not.

My Aunt asked me the other day if I had made any yet.

I'm thinking that I might.

Yes, for selling purposes, it would be kind of good to know!

The ponchos I have seen on here are really pretty I have never made one.maybe I will try one in a couple of months or after I finish my current project:w-grin
