I attempted this pattern. I don't understand how you can skip the first stitch every time you repeat row 2 and have a rectangle when finished. You are decreasing one stitch every 4 rows?

What a stylish poncho. I love the neutral color and look at all of the design elements. Like most poncho patterns is made with two identical pieces joined but all the bells and whistles really make this one different.

There are a lot of design elements to this perfectly Paris poncho from Bernat. From the drawstring to the intricate edge, this will get a lot of complements if you elect to create this poncho. Crocheting it in a neutral color will ensure you can wear it with practically anything.

This poncho is a timeless classic. That look with that beret totally has the French look. Just point me to the Eiffel Tower. Size instructions are given from extra small up to 5xl. So, everybody gets a poncho is what I could hear Oprah saying LOL. Looks very easy to make.

I love this pattern very much. I will make the larger sizes as I would like this to be longer on me, covering my arm more. Thanks for this pattern.

No picture comes up with the instructions. It would be extremely helpful if I could see what it looks like to decide if it is something I would like to create.

This is so beautiful!. Very chic, classy, and elegant. I will make this poncho and wear it exactly the way the model wears it. LOL. I appreciate the generosity of the author who published the pattern on the same page complete with different sizes an other relevant information.

Awesome! Would love to see a poncho with arm holes. I'm not much on creating.
