Another "Coming Home" poncho



+Size "Coming Home" poncho pattern
from Lion Brand website

I used plus size pattern this time, but I made the poncho shorter than the pattern suggests.
The yarn is Homespun "Prairie", and the color is described as "Mixed medium cool browns with a hint of green", but I also see colors like red, blue, and purple.
I probably should have picked a lighter color.....

Our tree & "Coming Home" poncho

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving. :)
We had a little family gethering at my SIL's house.
I baked a 4-layer pumpkin cake, which I got its recipe from kraftfoods.com.
If you love creamcheese and pumpkin, this cake is for you!
It was a hit, and women at the gethering begged for the recipe. :)

By the way.....

Do you remember my crochet snowflakes I made in August?
Well, they are on our tree now! :D


I just wish I made more snowflakes...
I'm pretty sure I'll be making more for years to come.
I just LOVE how they look, and my son never wants to leave the side of the tree. :D
The information about my crochet snowflakes can be found here and here.

Also...

In an evening after Thanksgiving, I made the famous "Coming Home" poncho. :)


Pattern from Lion Brand website.

I used Homespun in color "Sierra".
I'm not sure if I picked a right color for my younger sister, but this poncho is very WARM. My sis is always cold so I know she will wear it. :D

I'm now working on another one in different color.
It's going to go to my mom. :)
