Popover Poncho Pattern Review + Giveaway

Hi sewing friends! I’m so excited to be on April Rhodes Popover Poncho tour! (and giving away a copy…see the end of the post!)Popover Poncho Review + Giveaway // Delia CreatesIt’s a super cute, super simple pattern just perfect for crisp weather. April has such a great eye for making patterns that are practical, stylish, and that flatter women’s bodies so well!

I am already a huge fan of her Staple dress pattern. It’s my go to dress to sew and to wear.

Popover Poncho Review + Giveaway // Delia CreatesI chose to keep my poncho casual, and sew it up in gray sweat shirt fleece from Jo-Ann. I added some interest to the collar lining with some black and white stripe Ponte De Roma knit from Girl Charlee.

Popover Poncho Review + Giveaway // Delia CreatesI also added some metal eyelets for the collar casing, but then struggled to find a safety pin small enough to thread my twill tape through them. So, I’m leaving them  empty for now.

I made my poncho about 1 1/2 inches longer than the original S/M and I think I like it just a titch longer.

Popover Poncho Review + Giveaway // Delia Creates Popover Poncho Review + Giveaway // Delia CreatesThis pattern was so fun to sew and to wear that I can’t wait to make another. I’m just waiting for the right fabric to come along… 🙂

I love how the hem of the poncho rises up to the wrist and then dips in the front and back. April sure designed a smart, smart pattern!

      Thanks Kristin! 🙂 It stuck for a while actually and then finally melted today. People have been telling me how it’s not normal for that to happen here, but it has actually been nice. I miss the snow! 🙂

    The stripes peeking out at the neckline are great! This looks really comfortable. =)

    You can use a bobby pin to thread the twill tape through the eyelets. 🙂

    Last year I made my own pattern for skiing, very similar to this one, but I LOOOOVE the cowl neck. I’ll have to purchase this one and see how different it is from the Luhkka patterns from Northern Finland. We use them for skiing to brush off the snow. This may be easier, and I can make more for my family! Thanks for sharing.

    […] choice.  Such a quick and simple pattern, a really joy to sew.  I had seen a number of these made up around the web and it looked like a winner.  I made up the M/L size in a Wool Blend Tweed […]
