Crochet Poncho Patterns

Crochet poncho patterns make loose, pullover garments with a head opening, often built from two rectangles joined into a V shape. Ponchos need very little fitting, which makes them beginner-friendly. Worsted or bulky yarn makes a warm fall layer, while lighter cotton ponchos work as summer cover-ups and beach wear.

How do you make a poncho from two rectangles?

Crochet two identical rectangles, each about twice as long as it is wide. Sew the short end of the first rectangle to the long edge of the second, then sew the short end of the second to the long edge of the first, leaving a V-shaped opening for the head.
