This is the front neck line.
And a closer view of the stitches.
I laced up the back (which can also be worn as the front).
So....here is the front. Like?
And the back! Like???
I'm not sure where to start about telling y'all about the pattern, because it is all in my head!! I am toying with writing it up for my etsy shop. The hardest part was weaving in the ends!!! Let me tell ya, I thought I was going to get a serious case of burnout from having to weave in those ends. But, the pain of dealing with all those ends was worth it in the long run, because those bands of colors are so worth it!
The crocheted flower choker is something I whipped up last night...After I finished the poncho I looked like a lost child!!! My hands had nothing to work on, so I picked up my crochet hook and a ball of this ribbon yarn (which I also used in the poncho) and cranked this out. I think it looks pretty with the poncho!I am off now...to make some snowmen!!! Yay!

This is beautiful! I love the colors you put into it. I do not like to weave in ends myself. Very time consuming.
Like? How about LOVE LOVE LOVE! What a fabulous piece of artwork! I love how the rectangles are joined and then the neckline is filled in. The lacing is a nice touch too. Very classy and stylish I would say!
Nice flower choker too.
