Patchwork Poncho (with Hood)

This poncho is very large, and very warm. Because of the way it was designed, it is more of a coat than it is a poncho. It looks a lot more complicated and time consuming than it really is. I took my time with it over a couple of weeks, working a total of maybe 30 or 40 hours on it.  I am only a petite 5’ 2” woman, this poncho fits me like any over-sized poncho would. My husband is 5’ 11”, and this poncho fits him as well.

One size - 62" (157.5 cm) wide x 46" (117 cm) long (excluding hood) - adult/teen (Although you could use a thinner yarn and smaller hooks to make a smaller version. The pattern is very easy to adapt.)
