How to Make a Poncho

This is probably the easiest poncho you'll ever make that you'll actually wear more than once. It's made from a thick woven wool that I found at JoAnn's fabric about a month ago in a graphic herringbone print. I knew I wanted to make a poncho as soon as I saw it but it wasn't until I saw a vintage poncho on Etsy that I realized how I'd be able to do it best. All you need to be able to do to sew your own is cut and sew in straight lines. Easy!
 Some twenty years ago a poncho was just a rectangle with a hole for the head. However, in this season the designers offer various models, materials and shapes. Because of that, any self-respecting fashionista should have this stylish item in her wardrobe. Also, the designers offer many varieties of cuts and collars, pockets, hoods, clasps, arm-cuts, varieties of length, cut and materials. All this can help to choose the model which will be ideal for you specifically.

A poncho is a great accessory to wear on a winter’s day and even better it is really easy to sew as it is formed from one square of fabric.

  1. I have a woven plaid I want to make a poncho from. Maybe this is the year I'll get it done.

  3. To “unknown”. It’s too bad they didn’t list directions but...The plaid one is a length of 54-60” wide fabric with a hole cut in the middle for your head. You would then add a bias or twill tape facing to secure the hole.
