Corner to Corner Poncho and the Pattern Pack Pro, Issue 42

March 18, 2018

Photo courtesy of Emily Truman for the Pattern Pack Pro.

My Corner to Corner Poncho can be found in March 2018, Issue 42 of the Pattern Pack Pro. This issues theme was “Ponchos” to include mine and five other ponchos.

If you don’t already subscribe to the Pattern Pack Pro, it’s a great monthly crochet magazine that focuses specifically on a type of project to help build your repertoire. Use this link to subscribe now – this contains an affiliate link, meaning if you subscribe using it, I will earn a small commission at no extra cost to you! 

Originally, I designed this poncho with the theme “Cakes Yarn” in mind for another issue, but upon completion, Emily wanted it for this poncho issue. I happily agreed. In my designing process though, I wanted something different. Most of the Cakes projects I see are blankets and scarves, and I wanted to do something different, so I went with this Corner to Corner Poncho.


Though I didn’t add into this design, you could always add some buttons down the sides to keep closed. And with this poncho being a one size fits most, the neckline is too. I wear a size large top, and after I put this on, I think if I were to make another, I would make my neck opening 12″. With a larger opening, the poncho would lay better, and not pull up as much on the backside.

To complete your own Corner to Corner Poncho, you will need 1,532 yards of #4 Worsted Weight Yarn – I used four skeins of Caron’s Cakes in the Banana Bread colorway. Found mine at my local Michaels. You’ll also need an I9/5.5mm crochet hook. It would also be fun in a variegated color on one side, and a solid on the other, or all in one solid color.

      The strips are perfect with the new Caron Cakes Yarn. Nice long color lengths (can't think of the actual term right now). Thanks again for the feature!

      Thanks! The colors really called to me when I was yarn shopping. I will admit, this poncho did take me quite some time to put together, but the beauty of the Caron Cakes yarn is that all these colors are found in one skein, so you don't have to change colors and weave in a bunch of ends. Thanks for stopping by!

      Corner to corner is so fun! I have a few other projects in the works using the same technique. I really wanted to come up with something that was outside of the box, not the typical scarf or blanket, and I love how the poncho turned out!

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.
