The little clusters of double crochet remind me of the granny stitch.The Secret Pathways Triangle Poncho is an easy crochet pattern that all crochet skill levels can make.My daughter has been asking me to make her a poncho. We have been searching for just the right one for quite some time. Some of them that looked really pretty; however, they seem a bit too complicated for my first poncho.Therefore, I settled for making something I had a little experience in making. This triangle poncho uses a pattern recently designed as a triangle shawl. Would you also like to start with a triangle shawl first? Then this crochet pattern is perfect for you.
