Ponchos are in Vogue®--and busy knitters will snap up these patterns for one of the most practical, good-looking, and easy-to-make garments ever.

Ponchos are among the most popular garments today, the cover-up of choice for those with style. And, with such a freeform structure, they're a friendly next step for novices who want a new challenge, but don't yet feel ready to try a fitted sweater or jacket. These 20 fashionable projects include both knitting and crochet, and offer a wide range of choices, from elegant mohair and mesh designs to more rustic cabled and fisherman fare. There are even some kids' ponchos to ensure that no one is left out of the fun. With Vogue's easy-to-follow instructions and patterns, it's simple, enjoyable, and satisfying to make a great piece you'll want to show off all the time.

I checked this book out of my local library and made one of the poncho's in four days. It was the red herringbone style poncho. The directions were strainght forward, however they asked for a seperate smaller weight skein of yarn, but didn't tell you what to do with it. I even took it to my local yarn shop to ask them if they could figure it out. I ended up using it in the frindge and when I knitted the collar. It came out beautiful!!!!!!!

I really like these vogue on the go books, they fit nicely in your knitting bag. My favorite pattern is the Bobble Poncho. It is knit with kid mohair and done in a delicate pink it's lovely with a sheer effect! There are poncho's with lace patterns, cabled ones, and one knit with ribbon yarn. There are 21 patterns to choose from, and one is a child's poncho.

Can You every have too many ponchos? Lovely patterns From modern Icelandic fairisle & chunky cables, to lacey mohair. Also a simple poncho for kids. Great photos and clear instructions ( at least for this intermediate knitter)

This book has some great patterns in it that I can hardly wait to try. The pattern I am working on now uses a chart for a lace pattern and it is very clear and easy to follow, though the pattern itself is very challenging.

About 20 ponchos. Two are for little kids. Mostly bulky type yarns on big needles. Good ones are: mitered poncho, entrelac poncho (definitely want to make this one), cabled turtleneck poncho, lace-cable poncho, cable and lattice poncho. Bad idea is the cape with the zipper. Unzip it and zing: it falls to the ground. Mohair poncho (or capelet) has pockets for some strange reason as it's much too short for them. The book might be useful as a stash buster to double up my regular yarns on the ponchos. So not the best of my poncho books but also not the worst. For that one see the Stork book.

This is a great deal. My local knitting store charges $6-7 for a single original poncho pattern, often the same when you search them on-line but book gives you many great ideas at a fraction of the cost for all of them. Great addition to a knitters library.

I love this book! All types of ponchos are illustrated here. There are elbow-length ponchos, like the one on the cover, and long, finger-tip length ones as well. Some are for more intermediate knitters and some for beginners. Every pattern is pretty, especially the cables.

Great little book (only about 6 x 6 inches) but plenty of patterns for easy, medium and advanced knitters. Some children's patterns too. I am sure to get lots of use from this book!

紹介されている作品数は21点。手順の説明に編み図はほとんど付いていないのですが、
簡単な指示の羅列なので、英語初心者でも編み物が初心者でなければ、
説明文をもとに自分で図を起こして、問題なく作れる気がします。
また、各作品には４段階で難易度が示されていて、作品数を難易度別にすると
「初心者向け：０」「初心者プラス：８」「中級者向け：１１」「上級者向け：２」
という感じになっています。表紙を飾っている作品は上級者向けに分類されています。
作品は１色の毛糸で編み目の美しさを楽しむデザインがメインのようで、
多色使いのものは４点でシンプルなものにとどまっています。

これだけ並べ立てられると、どれも作ってみたくなって迷いますね。しあわせな悩みです。
オシャレ好きの祖母が歳をとって肩や腕をあまり動かせなくなり、上着の袖に腕を通すのに
苦労していたので、ガボッとかぶっただけであったかいポンチョは楽で良いのではと思いつき、
この本を購入しました。
「年をとると目が悪くなってなぁ、なんでだか無性にあの色が好きになって…」
…わかったよばあちゃん。赤い毛糸で作ってあげる。

...als Strickanleitungen finden sich in diesem mageren Büchlein.Abgesehen vom überraschend kleinen Format war auf den ersten Blick die Anleitung meines Traumponchos auf der Titelseite schon unübersichtlich und auf den zweiten wirklich falsch.Es machte den Eindruck,jemand,der nur rudimentäre Kenntnisse im Stricken hat,hätte diese Anleitung geschrieben.Mich überfiel spontane Unlust.Schade.
Fazit:Fehlerhaftes aus der Welte derjeniger,die "Makellos" auf ihre Fahnen geschrieben haben.
Lohnt nicht.

この本は編物洋書購入二冊目にあたるのですが、ペーパーバックサイズでかさばらず、どこにでも持ち運べて、編物が楽しめる本です。内容も気さくな感じがあふれ出ています。難易度の表示があり、パターン表示です。日本の編物表示と違いますので、普通なら身構えるところですが、写真も明るくって、ついつい引き込まれてしまいます。これならできるんじゃない！って、気になります。第一、日本の編物本には、ポンチョの図案ってすくないじゃない。洋書ってこういうときに便利ですよね。楽しんで編めそうです。
