mikey your your instructions are on the mark I love the way you wrote the pattern for all of the non pro's such as myself . as for the poncho being to short it seems simple enough continue adding rows and increasing mikey you're the best not many men crochet Lorene
Mikey you did wonderful job on your instructions I'm almost finished with my poncho used different colors but it turned out beautiful thank you keep up the good work .
I'm heading to Michael's this morning, watched this video this week and haven't been able to get it out of my head, it's gorgeous!!! Thank you #Yarnspirations and Mikey!!! #TheCrochetCrowd
I managed to sort the XL instructions out and almost finished making my poncho with UK aran and I'm in love with this project. Thank you for all your hard work with the tutorials and all that you do xx
Beautiful pattern, and, as always, wonderful instructions. The chain 2 in each row of the body made a noticeable seam down the poncho. Next time I will probably just go all in the round and mark the beginning with a stitch marker. Also, not sure if it was the skeins I got, but the Caron Simply Soft split like crazy, i.e. every few stitches. Otherwise, love your videos and information!
I’ve just been searching the comments to see if anyone else has complained about the back seam. I’ve just about finished the first part and I’m not happy with the seam and it travels. I was wondering if it can be done in the round. I’m glad you suggested it. I’m changing to the second colour tomorrow so I’ll try it in the round. I’m surprised Mike’s didn’t mention the seam.
I made the ribbed part of the neckline flat because I did not like the way the seam on mine looked when I did it in the round. Then I joined one end to the other in the last stitch and proceeded with the hdc increase row as per the pattern. I stitched up the back seam after I was done with the cape. If you don’t like turtlenecks, then do not sew the seam closed. Leave it open and it will look like a collar.
Hi there. Could you please post the calculations for the body for the bigger sizes. I've got the collar sorted ok, but making a mess of the body and had to start that part again. Many thanks!
now that I'm finished with my poncho washing it by hand seems to be a bit much given the size is there another way to clean or set the stitches let me know please ready to wear
Awesome tutorial . I can't crochet but with a teacher like you , I know I can make one poncho like your . I jus need to know how many chains for a extra large size and the increase for the rest of the poncho . please , please , please ?
I made this Poncho however I thought I was making it in a extra extra large, but when I finish it it looks like a small to a medium size and I used the chart for the large size
Evonne Bazemore I made the small one for my mom and it came out way smaller than I expected. She is a petite person and it stops at her just under her elbow. I'm not sure why. I feel like I missed something but I looked over the pattern several times. 😔
Ladies! I am glad to hear this! I am making the extra large size and am almost ready to switch to the second color! There is no way that the first will come past my shoulders! I have actually gone back to the collar and started it over. Something is not right!
Evonne Bazemore I'm having the same experience, but I figured my counts were off. On the cape part, I'm trying 5 rows of the 8 hdc before the double hdc to try to grow it out more. I'd like the first color to be able to cover my shoulders. The turtleneck part is snug but it stretches over the friends head I'm giving it too.
My daughter wants me to crochet her this beautiful blanket poncho, but without the turtleneck. How would I start this project? How many stitches am I starting with? Please help me.
for those of you that's coming up short on your roles you are not completing all the files in a specific color the pattern calls for that's why your work ends up short you must count,count, count
Just finished this and the neck is so drapey. ( I understand gage and went down a hook size). Just curious to hear feedback from those that have finished! I love it, but it looks very different.
I love this cape! I ve made two capes the exact same color. I also made the poncho tweed under wraps. Will there be any tutorials for capes and ponchos with hoods? Thank you so much for sharing this art.
I am just wondering for those of us who also knit if you couldn't simply go by the same stitch count and knit two purl two on circular needles then pick up and chrochet from there once you have the neck completed/
I am doing it right now and l am plus size... when collar finish ... first line has to be every 9 stitches (than 2 in one) not 8 ... shortly start from second line of the body... than it fits..❤️❤️
I LOVE following your patterns, you are my go-to guy. BUT I have to ask why do you make items in dark colors where we can't really see what you're doing? Please consider this when creating new ones because I really wanted to make this cape but I just can't follow you. Thanks! Oh, and I just bought your book from Amazon. Can't wait to get it and read all your stories!
Firstly thanks for buying our book. In time, this is an older video, the videos we have learned degrade in quality and darken up and I really don't know why that is. Somtimes I am required to use colours that is told to me even though I do protest about it. I try not using dark colours and have given away most of the dark colours in my collection because i know it bothers people in filming. I'll try to do better.
Hello, out there!!! I am making this in the extra large size and it is terribly small! What am I doing wrong? There is no way that my first color is going to reach past my shoulders! Help!!!!
Destany D I'm not sure if it'd work but maybe consider looking at the chart that he's making around 15:00. Maybe use one of those numbers as a starting point for the collar and then follow along from there?
I have a problem, i made this cape but didn’t finish yet i tried it to check if the size of the nick is right and it is a little tight. I used a different yarn. How can i fix it please help me 😖
Question: In the second round you said the chain counts as the first half double crochet. I see it says the same in the pattern. But the rest of the stitches in the round and for the rest of the collar are double crochet. Did they misprint?
Hi Mikey, you do not say how many grams are there in a skein you use? So, two for top and bottom colours and one each for the middle colours. How many grams is there in a skein and what is the weight of yarn? Thank you
if you follow the link, the pattern is listed which will give you the brand. You will be able to get that detail on Yarnspirations.com when you are over there looking at the pattern. Hope that helps. There are so many details about a pattern but most times it's right on the patterns themselves. See the video description for the link to the free pattern.
Hi!! First of all... thank you so much... i love this pattern and it’s just what I wanted. I’m a real beginner and I’m able to do it cause you explain it so well. But I’d appreciate a lot of you could help me with something... I’m using a different kind of yarn, it’s not as soft and stretchy as yours, and I’m doing a shorter collar, because I don’t want it to fold, I want it to be like a turtle neck. And it’s pretty good like this. I’ve already made it and it fits perfectly. The thing is. I started doing it with 58 chains because it goes through my head perfectly , but it is a bad number cause it can’t be divided by any other one (I don’t know the name of this kind of number in English). And I’m trying to figure how i can do the increase. I figured out that I did (because I went through the 11th round and decided do start over cause I made a mistake when I did chains after the round, leading to a triangle form in the encounter of the rounds) I did increase 6 sts, but unevenly, because of the number... and yet it was fitting perfectly. Is there way to continue with 58, increasing 6 but evenly? And if I start off with 60, could I keep increasing only 6? Oh gosh I hope someone helps me ♥️🙏🏾
Hello Michael and to everyone else on this channel, I have been a subscriber for many years and I have learnt so many beautiful projects from all your crocheting videos. And everyone else’s helpful comments Thank you very much 👏 All your easy instructions and detail, have helped me to be an intermediate crocheter. 👍 But in the last year (2017) I haven’t been drawn into doing much projects, as I have gone through some encounters in my personal life. I have come back though in a better spiritual understanding of life. Just today I received an email to check out this very pattern.(Which I will try and make one day) I know that this has nothing to do with crocheting far fetched but if you all can bare with me if I can share to you and anyone else who is going through tough times and hard times anything difficult in life that there is light at the end. Please seek life in Jesus Christ for he is the only way and truth and life. He has transformed my life and my families. And he can do the same for anyone else. I will uplift you and everyone else in my prayers🙏🙏 Many Blessings to you all Love and prayers Donna. ✝️IS❤️

You are an excellent teacher. Thank you.

I managed to sort the XL instructions out and almost finished making my poncho with UK aran and I'm in love with this project. Thank you for all your hard work with the tutorials and all that you do xx
Wendy Green can I ask how you worked out the measurements please
OMG!!!! Where have you've been all my life!?, I love this video, you might have a new subscriber
Beautiful pattern, and, as always, wonderful instructions. The chain 2 in each row of the body made a noticeable seam down the poncho.

Also, not sure if it was the skeins I got, but the Caron Simply Soft split like crazy, i.e. every few stitches. Otherwise, love your videos and information!
I agree. Continuous revolutions would be the best if you are going to improvise the pattern.
I’ve just been searching the comments to see if anyone else has complained about the back seam. I’ve just about finished the first part and I’m not happy with the seam and it travels. I was wondering if it can be done in the round. I’m glad you suggested it. I’m changing to the second colour tomorrow so I’ll try it in the round. I’m surprised Mike’s didn’t mention the seam.
Love this cape. Like to see more.

Great pattern from India
I made the ribbed part of the neckline flat because I did not like the way the seam on mine looked when I did it in the round.

If you don’t like turtlenecks, then do not sew the seam closed. Leave it open and it will look like a collar.

Thanks for sharing 🙏
Will this turtle neck border have the elasticity as in knitted borders, or will it be stiff?
I made this Poncho however I thought I was making it in a extra extra large, but when I finish it it looks like a small to a medium size and I used the chart for the large size

Can I make it without the cowl?
Complimenti per tutti i tuoi tutorial! Ti seguo da poco ma fai dei lavori fantastici ❤️ grazie per quello che fai 😍
I am just wondering for those of us who also knit if you couldn't simply go by the same stitch count and knit two purl two on circular needles then pick up and chrochet from there once you have the neck completed/
I am doing it right now and l am plus size... when collar finish ... first line has to be every 9 stitches (than 2 in one) not 8 ... shortly start from second line of the body... than it fits..❤️❤️
I love this. My next project. How can I download the printed copy of this pattern ,
The link is in the video description and there is a blue button that says “pattern” that will take you to the pdf you can download/print
Me encanta tu trabajo pero me encantaría que fuese subtitulado en español muchas gracias 😘
would it be possible to work this on circular needles and knit a two by two rib and then continue on from there?
The link in the description takes me to a rice pillow tutorial.....I'd like to be able to see the actual directions for this project.
I LOVE following your patterns, you are my go-to guy. BUT I have to ask why do you make items in dark colors where we can't really see what you're doing?

(Los quiero en español 😭😭) 😘
How many yards are in a ball ???????????
would it be possible to add arm holes for this poncho?
Do all the slip stitches line up in a row when you start the increase each row ?
This came out very short for me but was the expected width.
is there a way to alter the top so it's a bigger opening and no turtle neck?
Destany D I'm not sure if it'd work but maybe consider looking at the chart that he's making around 15:00. Maybe use one of those numbers as a starting point for the collar and then follow along from there?

Hi Mike ..
I have a question can a 8yr old Wear this. My grandson wants me to make him a poncho.. Help...thank you for all you do.
Would love a cheat sheet count for the plus size ..... 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Can I do this with the tweets yarn? 7 of them?
