PONCHO WITH SLEEVES PATTERN LINK


This started life as a normal poncho and could be just that using the start of the pattern but i turned it 90deg, and added wrist warmer sleeves..wore it to death, still hanging in the wardrobe but not worn it for a couple of years now.



CELTIC CROSS SCARF PATTERN



This simple, 2 round motif makes a fabulous delicate scarf...another pattern that would use up all those tiny ends of yarn mix with a ball or two of a background colour to make a pretty little Lacey Scarf....resembling a Celtic Cross in a circle
