Summer Cabled Poncho #1 of 4

[@JoJo-uq2vo]

I recently finished the Abigail baby blanket and I’m feeling cable confident! And I have plenty of light cotton. This looks gorgeous 🙏🏽

[@barbaramartin6837]

I love this pattern so far. It is neat the way you incorporate cables and yet keep this piece light enough for Spring and Summer wear. I’m looking forward to the next 3 videos.😊

Very pretty 🤗

[@denisejf]

Very nice!💖 Thank you for showing us this one again 🤗

[@Anna-jl1rx]

Very nice to see cables in summer wear. Thank you! I might use the pattern for a scarf: thin yarn, smaller hook and obviously just one rectangle.

[@sharakirkby2744]

I’m going to try this just to see if I can do it. I’ll let you know in a pleasant way😊

[@bernieenochs1933]

Hi Bonnie.. Do you have a beginners summer poncho?

[@SweetpeaCydsInspirations]

Very cute!

[@joanietritschler9862]

Hi Bonnie I Have never tried front and back post crochets Want to try I love the v stitch looks hard but looks can be deceiving I may give it a go or try a different cotton yarn. I have the caboo cotton yarn from lion brand.

[@amandamaddox1473]

I'm confused about the type yarn. A cotton in a 3?

[@carolst-denis7871]

wondering how many skeins of yarn to purchase to make this

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Here's the information you need: 8 hanks of Cascade Yarns UltraPima Fine (100% Pima Cotton, 50 g/1.75 oz, 136.7 yds/125 m) in #3814 Camelia Rose, size G (or 6/4.00 mm) and F (or 5/3.75 mm) crochet hooks (or sizes needed for gauge), upholstery needle for hiding loose strands.

[@blkrose5175]

To make it wider what would be the multiple sts, or just leave chain count as is and go up in hook size as you suggested. Thanks for sharing its beautiful. Hope to ginish also can iy be done eith 4ply, still learning yarn after these many years ❤

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

You can work more rows to make this wider, although it will fit a wide rage of sizes as is.

[@jennsnow9704]

How much yarn is needed for the original Pancho?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

This is what I used Jenn: 8 hanks of Cascade Yarns UltraPima Fine (100% Pima Cotton, 50 g/1.75 oz, 136.7 yds/125 m) in #3814 Camelia Rose, size G (or 6/4.00 mm) and F (or 5/3.75 mm) crochet hooks (or sizes needed for gauge), upholstery needle for hiding loose strands.

@@BonnieBayCrochet Thank you! Love this pattern! Going to put this on my hook right away!🙂

[@debbierawson6583]

Can I use a different size yarn and hook?

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Absolutely! You do want to stay within the parameters of the sizing to get a good fit.

[@debbierawson6583]

I can’t find this written pattern on lovecrafts anywhere?

[@Addicted2Yarn1]

Hey Bonnie, you said this would go up to a size XL, could you possibly say what the measurements of your one is please, I'm wondering if maybe I'd need to go up to a 4.5mm hook size as im on the bigger side of a UK XL and i don't want to go through making this to find out it's too small. Thank you

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Here are the dimensions of each panel: Each panel approximately 17” wide X 29” long. you can make this wider and longer if needed. Upsizing your hook will also be an option.

[@Addicted2Yarn1]

@@BonnieBayCrochet thank you Bonnie 😀

[@ellenlowery6497]

G is 4 J is 6. Which one?

[@crochetwithcindy]

Size G. G/6 (not 6 mm) The 6 is size number. G is a 4mm.

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

@@crochetwithcindy thanks for answering!😊

[@crochetwithcindy]

You're welcome Bonnie! Hook sizes can be confusing sometimes.

[@ellenlowery6497]

Still confused

[@crochetwithcindy]

The US hook size is G/6. The millimeter size is 4mm. If you Google crochet hook size chart it might help better understand how hooks are sized.

[@sandycantu6830]

I wish I can see what you made. It’s all to close up. I see the picture indicating what you’re going to make, but I’m sorr. I can’t see very well. If maybe you could show the whole thing front and back or just model it .🥰🙏

[@BonnieBayCrochet]

Yes, I would do it differently now Sandy. I filmed these back in 2017 when I was learning about filming and all. There are photos of this on the pattern link (in video description).😊

@@BonnieBayCrochet thank you for getting back to me. It looks beautiful from what I see. Happy belated Mother’s Day 🌹❤️🙏
