The Cornflower Sky Poncho is a modern Tunisian crochet design that combines beautiful texture with simple geometric construction. Worked in two identical triangles and seamed along the top edge to create a relaxed neckline, this poncho drapes comfortably while showcasing the unique fabric created by Tunisian crochet.
Using a soft DK-weight yarn in a calming cornflower blue, the design highlights a series of classic Tunisian stitches, including Honeycomb, Simple Stitch, Reverse Stitch, and Arrowhead Stitch. These textures flow naturally across the triangular shape, creating subtle interest and structure without complicated shaping.
Designed for confident beginners and intermediate crocheters, this pattern is an enjoyable introduction to textured Tunisian crochet. Each triangle is worked in an intuitive progression that allows the stitches to shine, making it a satisfying project for those who enjoy watching a piece grow row by row.
Whether worn on cool evenings or layered through the changing seasons, this poncho offers a timeless, handmade piece that celebrates both colour and texture. Pattern is written in English and uses UK terms.
