This has got to be the easiest poncho plans ever! Using fleece or another stretch fabric means that you don’t need to hem it. So all it takes is one simple seam and you have a gorgeous poncho you will love to wear!
You will need:
- t-shirt, sweatshirt or fleece fabric 25 inches wide by 70 inches long (64 cms x 178 cms long)
- sewing machine
- 2 purchased tassels (I’ll get working on a DIY for making a tassel soon)
- needle and co-ordinating thread
Start by cutting your fabric to size. Cut it carefully to be completely straight. We aren’t planning to hem the fabric so take your time to make the cut as perfect as possible.
Then fold it in half.
With the fold on the left, measure 21 inches from the right edge of the fabric and pin it together along the top edge.
Leaving 14 inches for your neck hole, sew the remaining 21 inches. This is the one seam that you need to sew for this awesome poncho.
Now add on the tassels-by hand stitching them onto the bottom right corners. This is completely optional. If you don’t have purchased tassels you can skip it. I will make a post about making a tassel soon and link it to this post.
That is all there is to it! This poncho will look great with jeans and boots or dress it up for fancy occasions. If your office is chilly you could have one of these in your desk drawer. You should make a few!
