Oh boy, some easy winter patterns, go check them out www.bellaonline.com/site/crochet let me know if you make them and send me a picture .

Hi Eva
Seems I don't come here as often as I should. Just had a look at your latest newsletter (which I do check regularly). Just wanted to say the adult poncho is very pretty--quite different from any other I've seen. Do have all the lessons so far printed out as well. Thanks bunches

Thanks Mary, make sure to check in next week I am going to put up 2 ways to design your very own mobius scarf.

Hi Eva! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Just now had time to look at the winter items. They look great! I don't have children, but my daughter (she's 11 going on 30) wants a poncho & gloves in her school colors. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I want to make myself a poncho too, but since it is a size L & I'm a size XXXL, <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> looks like I have a bit of creative thinking to do. It looks likes I might be able to use a larger hook -- maybe an N......now where is that hook hiding? & perhaps add a couple of stripes????? <img src="/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> What do you think? Maybe two strands of yarn????

<img src="/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> What's a 'mobius scarf'????

Thanks again.

Great patterns Eva. Thanks for sharing.

Hi there, I will be glad to help you make it to your size, it will be easy. Go ahead and make the beginning chain required, now before you join it, slip it over your head, does it fit ? If it does then just follow the pattern as written and yes make a few more rows of stripes. If it doesn't fit over your head let me know and I will help you convert it so that it will. <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> A Mobius scarf ( I may be spelling it wrong) is one that fits over your head and has a permanent twist in it. I"ll go hunting around for a picture .
