The idea for the Nocturne Poncho came from how much I love wearing my Nocturne Cardigan around the house. Sometimes, though, the sleeves would get in the way while doing everyday things, so I thought a poncho might be the perfect solution!
And since the hood felt a little plain on its own, I added a little twist, the goat ears and horns! Because honestly… who wouldn’t want to be a goat?

What this pattern has to offer:

• Made to measure - you can make it in a short cape size, normal poncho or a full “poncho dress”
• Step-by-step instructions with detailed photos at every stage of the project (US terms)
• Include instructions for adding:
  • hood
  • tassels
  • goat ears & horns (With few tweaks can be adjusted to other animals!)
• Photo & video tutorials for:
  • foundation single crochet (fsc)
  • chain plying (tripling your yarn)
  • linked double crochet (ldc) - optional; can be used instead of normal dc

After purchase you will receive two PDF files - Pattern and Lookbook with details about ponchos made by me and my testers

Materials needed:

• Any weight yarn - for this tutorial I used less than two skeins of Yarnart Flowers Merino 532 (2x 225g/590m)
• Crochet hook a little bigger than the hook recommended for your yarn (to achieve better drape) + optional smaller hook for the horns - for this tutorial I used 6.0mm + 5.0mm
• Yarn needle
• Scissors
• Something sturdy in a rectangular shape (e.g. a piece of cardboard or a book) for tassels optional
• Stuffing - for horns optional

This pattern is suitable for advanced beginners. The pattern doesn’t contain any complicated stitches, just the overall project might be overwhelming for beginners, if you’re up to the challenge go for it! :)
