The Perfectly Panache Chic Poncho was designed by my friend Kristin Omdahl. Kristin made this poncho to help showcase the beauty of my new yarn, Chic Sheep by Marly Bird™. What a wonderful job she did and I hope that you all follow along with me and make one of these crochet ponchos for yourself today. This poncho is a MUST HAVE crochet accessory for your wardrobe.

The Perfectly Panache Crochet Poncho:
With the launch of my NEW yarn line, Chic Sheep by Marly Bird™, I called on some of my great designer friends to help me out. In the first collection of patterns, all FREE on the Red Heart website, we had hats, garments, blankets and more. One of the beautiful patterns from the first collection is the Perfectly Panache Poncho.
Simple and easy to memorize stitch pattern, seamless construction from start to finish, and stylish as all get out! Worked in one piece you don’t have to worry about spending time at the end of your crochet time to finish the project. Just sew in your ends and you will be ready to go.
Through this tutorial I show you how to work the front panel and then how to pick up crochet stitches to work the back panel. By starting in your foundation chain for both the front and back panel there is no seaming involved. Once you have the body of your poncho ready to go you will again pick up stitches to work in the round for the collar.
If any of these techniques sound scary don’t be afraid to get started. Through the tutorial I will show you exactly how to do each step by working on a small color coded sample. I help take the guesswork out of making beautiful projects.

About Chic Sheep:
Having my own yarn line has always been my dream. When Red Heart gave me the opportunity for that dream to come true I was elated.
Chic Sheep by Marly Bird™ is 100% Merino Wool. This means that it is machine washable and dryer safe! Not only is it easy to maintain but it is an absolute dream to use in accessories and garments.
Having this yarn snuggled up against your skin feels so good. This yarn is soft and springy yet durable, and excellent for patterns requiring stitch definition. With 24 colors that effortlessly work together you can make all of the projects of your dreams.
