Stephanie Poncho

If you can crochet a simple shawl, you’ll be able to make this poncho! Well, “poncho” is a broad term, so you can think about this piece as a beach cover or a shawl as well! As you can see in the photos, Amber decided to go with bright yellow, but I can see in my imagination how amazing it would look in natural beige.
