Product Description
I designed the Brenna Poncho to be worn in a more stylish way than a typical poncho. The addition of a belt adds some shape and flair, and with the back loose, you get the look of a cape. As you can see from the photos, you can crochet the belt which is included in the pattern, or you can add your own. Plus, it’s super warm and soft in Lion Brand Heartland yarn. As written, the poncho measures 38” wide by 33” long, but it’s easily adjusted. You will need Lion Brand Heartland yarn in Mammoth Cave - 6 skeins, Sequoia - 2 skeins, and Grand Canyon - 1 skein.
Brenna Poncho by Tia Edwards
What is Being Made
The Brenna Poncho is a stylish crochet poncho designed by Tia Edwards that combines the comfort of a traditional poncho with the elegant silhouette of a cape. The design features a belted waist to add shape and definition, while the loose back creates a dramatic cape-like appearance. This garment is crafted to be both fashionable and functional, providing warmth and softness for everyday wear.
Crochet Techniques and Construction
This beginner-friendly crochet pattern uses fundamental techniques suitable for those new to the craft. The construction method allows crafters to build a structured poncho that drapes beautifully when worn. The addition of a belt element helps define the silhouette and prevents the garment from appearing shapeless, distinguishing the Brenna Poncho from standard poncho designs.
Yarn and Materials
The Brenna Poncho is designed to be made with Lion Brand Heartland yarn, a soft and warm fiber perfect for cozy outerwear. The pattern calls for a total of 9 skeins in a multi-color combination:
- Mammoth Cave - 6 skeins (primary color)
- Sequoia - 2 skeins (secondary color)
- Grand Canyon - 1 skein (accent color)
The yarn weight used is Aran and Worsted weight, which creates a fabric with good drape and structure suitable for poncho construction.
Tools and Notions
To complete this project, you will need a size J/10 crochet hook (6.00 mm) and stitch markers to help track your progress through the pattern rounds and sections.
Skill Level
The Brenna Poncho is rated as an Easy skill level project, making it an excellent choice for beginner crocheters who have basic familiarity with fundamental crochet stitches and techniques. The straightforward construction allows new crafters to build confidence while creating a wearable, fashionable garment.
