Poncho-can't find what i want

[chickpea67]

Hi all--

 

I've searched through Rachel's poncho patterns and various other pattern sites and I can't find something that I like.

 

I'd like something similar to the Jessica Simpson shawl but In a poncho (loopy airy and capable of being dressed up). I love the trapezoid poncho too, but thats done with a fingering weight and I'm trying to use the yarn I bought from ThreeOliveMartini.

 

I was thinking about just making the rectangle type one use back loops only on a dc or trc. Would this work? Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks!

This is the poncho that's made like the celeb shawl. Just thought you'd like to know! Good luck!
