V stitch = two hdc in the same stich, skip a stitch Hdcblo = half double crochet back loop onlyīobble = yarn over, pull up, yarn over, pull up, yarn over, pull up, pull through all the stitches (7), chain With the finished poncho you can't tell the difference and I was able to make it as large as possible by not worrying about it. Knowing that I had 100 yards of each and that this was a circular poncho, I made the decision that I would use all of one yarn and then just switch - and not worry about only switching on a new row. I find that my hands can do patterns with it really fast and I just really get in a groove. I realized recently that half double crochet is my favorite stitch. What this made me see is - start with a circle and then you're going to grow on each corner by 2 each round - that's it! This pattern from Spoons and Hooks helped me with the aha! moment to get me going. I knew that I wanted to make a poncho out of this yarn, but having not made one before I was reading various patterns to get an idea of what to do. This particular color is called Wood Nymph. The yarns are all roughly the same weight. Each yarn is approximately 100 yards long for a total of 1000 yards. This was a yarn set of the same color varient, but in 10 different yarns. While we were up there I had brought with me a 1000 yard set from Cat Mountain Fiber Arts. She absolutely loved it, she loved it so much that when it came down to get in the car to go home - she laid down in protest.
Memorial Day weekend was our first weekend at the cabin in Chaumont! It was so amazing to be back there again, I really miss it in the winter.
