All in all, I used close to 1,400 yards of yarn for this thick and cozy poncho.
#CARSEAT PONCHO FULL#
I needed a full two skeins(3.5 ounces each) of each grey color and almost three skeins for the tan color since I used it for all of my trim, ties, and pom poms.

To see an example of these colors and lots of others in an aran weight, you can check out this yarn. I chose to use all acrylic just so I can machine wash this on the gentle cycle if I need to. This means that mine worked up very much like a super bulky yarn.Īll three strands of the yarn that I used are different colors: dark grey, light grey, and a light tan color. As I said, I used three strands of yarn for this poncho, and they are all aran weight. The first thing to do with this project is to pick the yarn you would like to use. Plus, I think the combination of neutral colors turned out really nice. Since just came up with a combination of yarns that I already had, this became a great stash buster.

To make it work up quickly and be nice and cozy, I opted to use three strands of yarn.

Inspiration and designĪfter seeing different types of car seat ponchos, I knew I wanted to make one for my son this year. You can use it to fill in the blanks with your own details(yarn, numbers of rows and stitches, and other notes), and keep track of your own special creation. However, if you would like a really specific aid for making this project, be sure to check out my Makers Crochet Vault for a downloadable pattern template that I’ve created for you just for the car seat poncho. I’ll be sharing the specifics of this pattern throughout the post, so that you can make one the same way. Hey there! Grab some of my best patterns FREE as a bonus for joining our list!
