Fabulous Crocheted Ponchos: New Styles, New Looks, New Yarns
Two hot trends combine in one classic collection: the popular poncho and the hip craft of crochet. And these 33 designs take the versatile wardrobe staple to new heights of sophistication: they feature a range of neckline and hem variations, and come in a variety of yarns, including novelty types like ribbon, faux suede, and fur. Some are long, others short; some are dressy, others just made for a fancy night on the town. And the majority are one size fits all. With the help of a well-illustrated basics section, brand-new or out-of-practice crocheters can confidently pick up their needles and create an open-weave poncho with sleeves and cuffs, a wrap-up for winter, a shimmering gold lacy poncho, and other showstoppers.

This pattern book was all I expected and more. Great for the beginner and experienced crocheter alike Annette
Great for techniques

I gave it a 4 only because I am not really a big fan of ponchos but I am overly impressed with all of the different stitches and techniques that are packed into this book. I am going to keep just for that purpose.
just wonderful

I hesitated on buying this book because I didn't care for the earlier one he did called the New crochet. This is not only a wonderful book on crocheted ponchos but it's one of the best crochet books I've ever seen. Looking at the book is like watching the fireworks in Hongkong which just keep on coming. Here every poncho is a winner. Lots of interesting yarns although it's easy to substitute with their yarn equivalents. Great instructions on doing them including the difficult ones of which only 4 are in that category. Almost all the designers are new to me but according to their bios they've been crocheting from birth. Even if you're a beginner, buy this book now. How about doing another book on sweaters?
