WOO HOO! Moda Dea Cache Poncho FO!

What'cha Knittin'?

I found some Moda Dea Cache yarn in a color I really love, and it was on sale at Michael’s for about 3 dollars a skein. The yarn is so interesting, with thick and thin parts, and a gold thread running through it.

I bought 6 skeins, and then came home to find a pattern.

I found this one: http://www.berroco.com/exclusives/charles/charles.html

I’ve almost finished the knitting part, and then all I’ll have left to do is the shoulder seam. So easy!

Oh my gosh!! I LOVE that color!!! :inlove: :inlove:

I’m looking forward to finishing this one. I’ve never made an adult poncho before, so it should be interesting. :smiley:

I’m still plugging away on that Moda Dea poncho. Maybe it will be ready to wear by fall this year! :rollseyes:

Thanks! So far, I’ve used about 7 skeins of yarn. I think I’ll need one more for the seaming and fringe. I might use another kind of yarn, the way they did in the original pattern. I just can’t decide for sure.

That is very pretty yarn!

That looks great! :thumbsup:

Woo Hoo! FINALLY, I finished making this poncho. It was garter stitch all the way, and I ended up using about 8 or 9 skeins. I’m proud, and now I have something nice to wear for fall! :happydance:

I made the poncho by casting on 60 stitches with a size 10 1/2 needle, and knitting every row until it began to look like a scarf for Paul Bunyan! :lol:

I was considering making it a mobius, but it wouldn’t work that way - too bulky. So, I just made it a poncho as I originally intended. I think it looks pretty good!

I was so excited to get a photo, that I just put it on over my nightgown! :teehee: I did put on some makeup, so I’m not THAT bad, I guess. :slight_smile:
