Stay as warm and cozy as can be with this oversized poncho-style top which features a boxy shape with a boat neckline, dropped shoulders and cute cuts at the sides. The colorwork and unusual construction ensure a satisfying level of challenge while crocheting it up! The stitch pattern uses only two of the most basic crochet stitches: double crochet and chains. You will alternate two colors at a time, but use only one color in each round. The instructions are written out and charted. The photo tutorial on the last page gives you a better visual idea of the stitch pattern. The pattern also includes empty grid layouts for each size to colorize. Choose your beloved colors and use these blank templates as your sketchpad to create your own unique design. **MATERIALS** - Yarn: 100% alpaca, 182 yd (167 m) per 50 g skein. *Suggested yarn: Alpaca by Drops.* - Hook: US G (4 mm) - Two stitch markers - Yarn needle to weave in ends **GAUGE** * One diamond is approx. 3½'' (9.cm) tall and 1½'' (4 cm) wide. **YARDAGE** - C1 (violet) – 364 (597, 686) yd / 333 (546, 627) m - C2 (blue) – 400 (495, 743) yd / 366 (453, 679) m - C3 (green) – 426 (514, 626) yd / 390 (470, 572) m **FINISHED SIZES** S (M, L) - Width 24¾ (28⅜, 31 ⅞)'' / 63 (72, 81) cm - Length 21¼ (24¾, 28⅜)''/ 54 (63, 72) cm - Neckline 21¼, (24⅜, 27½)'' / 54 (62, 70) cm in circumference - Sleeve 15¾ (18⅞, 22)'' / 40 (48, 56) cm in circumference ★ The pattern has been professionally tech edited. ★ Language: English (US crochet terms) > ✦ **Subscribe** for new patterns, stitch > experiments, and insights into my > creative process: > www.cupofstitches.com/subscribe > >✦ You can also find me on: >[Instagram][2] ~ [TikTok][3] ~ [Facebook][4] [2]: https://www.instagram.com/ravliki/ [3]: https://www.tiktok.com/@ravliki [4]: https://www.facebook.com/crochetravliki/
