Ponchos are a wonderful accessory for Fall weather! And this Silver Lining Poncho crochet pattern is pretty and easy!
Ponchos are such cozy accessories and they are a classic edition to your wardrobe. Our crochet poncho today is very easy to work and fits a variety of sizes.
This design is worked using basic single crochet, double crochet and chain stitches. It’s worked from the top down which makes it easy to adjust the length as you go!

What materials do you need to crochet the Silver Lining Poncho?
When crocheting my poncho, I used a fingering weight yarn called, Palette™ by Knitpicks® Yarn. This yarn is 100% Highland Peruvian Wool. Each ball contains about 231 yards and I used a total of 10 balls for my poncho.
Along with the yarn you will also need a size E/9 (3.5 mm) hook. And to finish off my poncho I added a few of my favourite beads to a tie at the front. I show this in the video tutorial below. They really add the perfect finishing touch to it.
