Fashion Doll Dressy Poncho

This little poncho is fast and easy to make. It starts with a ring and is worked in the round. Once you make one of these, you will want to try to make one for yourself or for your kids! It is easy to adjust for real people! Just switch to yarn and make sure the starting ring fits over the person's head. There is also another version, for regular people, made with vsts here!

Random Quick Tip!

What Size Hook?
If you are the type to have many projects going at the same time and some of those projects require the same size hook, well what do you do to mark your spot and remember what hook size is needed? Well, Julie Morash gave me the idea of making a marker which would have the size hook on it and then you would stick it in your work. Well I went with this concept and came up with using a plastic tab from a loaf of bread and mark the size hook on it with a magic marker and put it at the last stitch. That way, when you go back to work on the project, you will know what size hook to use for it. Thanks Julie for the inspiration and the idea plant.
