Mens poncho pattern

[pmriekert]

I'm looking for a men's poncho pattern -- one that doesn't require sewing the pieces together. I did find two on Lionbrands website--the "crochet oversize poncho" and the "mitered mans poncho" and both need to be sewn. Anyone know of any other patterns around?

How about this one?

Here's another idea...there isn't a pattern listed, but it looks fairly simple, just an afghan with a hole in the middle. Good luck!

I actually did see that pattern. I'm not sure I like the way it falls, but thanks:)! Maybe if I crocheted a simple woman's pattern in a masculine color? I'll have to look around some more and see. Thanks!

pam.. start your poncho in a rectangle.. when it gets long enough and you want the head slit in.. crocet over how far you want it in .. chain the width of the opening.. and slip stitch the chain in the other side.. then work the back even with the front.. if you want a cowl neck .. once you are finished slip stitch your yarn to the head opening and work in the round til its tall enough .. VOILA!!

Good ideas! Thanks!

I hate sewing stuff together too. That's why I only sew pieces together using slip stitch with the crochet hook. Just thought I would mention it incase you hadn't come accross the slip-stich-sew-together method before
