What a beautiful poncho, I am so excited to make this for a Christmas gift. Could a worsted weight yarn be substituted for this pattern or do you highly recommend bulky?
Thank you do much for sharing your talent.
GOD Bless
HI GIna, WEight worsted yarn aran you might take longer time to finished or you might need to hold double strand together while crochet so it be quicker like a chunky yarn.
Could I use a size 6 super bulky yarn for this poncho? If so, would I just go down a hook size and make the pattern as it is with 100 chains to start in order to maintain the size for s to xl?
HI carol for super bulky yarn i would go up for bigger hook size that they reccommend and the chain will be less than 100 chain.
What number of chains would you recommend if using 6 ply yarn for pattern?
