I like this small & lacy ponchette. It is a really good size and looks very versatile. http://www.e-patternscentral.com/detail.html?prod_id=6193&cat_id=&criteria=poncho

I've just been looking at that and wondering if I'd wear it. It's so pretty.

I like them. Since I broke my arm, it gets chilled and sore. Wearing a little something extra helps. I like the shorter ones because it is still easy to use your hands. That pattern looks dressy, too.

That is a very pretty pattern, i`m sure it is something you would wear quite often...it would go with any outfit too.

That's pretty. I personally won't wear it, but I wonder if a small would fit a 10 1/2 yr old. My grand-daughter would like it for school.

I think it would depend on the size of the 10 yr. old, but I imagine it would.

I might give it a shot. We're going into the right weather now for this.

That is pretty. It could be worked with a heavier yarn for more warmth during the colder season too. I love the lack of sleeves, makes it so easy to slip on. Another great pattern for some one with a frozen shoulder or other shoulder restrictive ailment.

Love it!!! I may just have to order that pattern. So much for resolutions. Smile

I saw one very very similar to this somewhere else, done in a sort of royal blue, but this one looks so much more delicate and pretty. Anyway, I think I remember the description on the one I saw said it's done by using 3 different size needles - something like 15, 10 and 5, to make it smaller as you work up, or larger as you work down. I forget now which way it's worked.

I made one just like that, in red, a few years ago to wear to a Christmas party, over a black cami and red and black skirt. I looked stunning, if I do say so myself. Wink Laughing

If you thought you looked stunning, I am sure you did. Attitude always adds an extra sparkle!! Very Happy

I see nothing "wrong" in posting a link to a free pattern. I just wish I'd seen it before I bought my pattern. Rolling Eyes
