I made this poncho with Lion Brand Ombre’ Happy. I used 516 yards (472 meters) and my size is a 2 to a 3. I used a 4.0 mm or a G hook for the neckline and a 5.5 mm or I hook for the body of the poncho. You can use any yarn and any hook you want. If you have any questions about this poncho, you can email me at crochetingwithleeann@gmail.com.
