I actually had a 1971 poncho in 1971. It looked different than this one. It was red white and blue 😁
That’s awesome!! 🤗🤗
My step-mom and her mom made us so many different types of ponchos in the 70s. I never had this style. Nice to see them coming back.
I was born in 1984 so the 1970s was before my time
Me too! Mine was red, white, and blue too!
I had one with the same colors!!! Lol
It’s actually hard to find good poncho patterns from the 70’s. Thank you!!!! Brings back so many memories.
Thank yu :)
What a sweet retro pattern! Brings back childhood memories. We aaaaallll wore a poncho in the 70’s here in the Netherlands. It was a real vibe 😂 I remember having one my mom bought me in Italy during the summer holidays. I was the queen of the playing ground for a minute 😂😂
So cool! oh I bet that Italian poncho was super cool too!!
Fab U lous
You have quickly become my favorite crochet channel! I loved your history on the 70’s but you forgot the most important parts, hip huggers and bell bottoms and the HAIR! We had the best hair styles!
FYI, I’m making this poncho AND the antique baby bonnet! I love your channel!!
Yay! thank you! , I know I left out so many awesome things, I try to keep it brief and informative lol, yes the 70s are in my top 3 fav decades! :)
And we had the best music!
Um... she said, " platform shoes and bell bottoms "... and hip huggers were already here from the '60s, along with the bell bottoms and hot pants. She can't possibly hit upon everything... the energy crisis, the long long gas lines, and all the gas stations that had signs up that read "no gas" and the fact that listening to the news was not that the news was getting worse and worse as if the world was getting worse and worse, it was just that the news was Becoming more graphic because They were not keeping certain things so silent anymore, such as domestic violence, child abuse and neglect, kidnappings and rapes of kids and women 'n there seemed to be a run on nurses being raped and murdered as well.
These were days the late 60s/early 70s Public Service ads with the slyly worded anti child abuse campaign slogan, "children should be seen and not HURT", aimed sharply at the very parents from the old "children should be seen and not HEARD" generation who were quick to slap, smack, backhand, whip or beat their kids for any ol' reason, even their own Mercurial mood or temper after a bad day at work or a traffic ticket. News and TV was gettin' gritty.
It was a time when the concept of serial homicide was first discussed in a lecture in England and then the term, " serial killer " had began to be used on the news all around the world soon after. The more thorough you try to be about the '70s, the uglier it gets.
@@susanfisher4344 yes! We definitely did!
Back in the day, way back in the day, my mom made and wore this very poncho to all my brother's football games so he could find her in the stands. This brought back so much fun memories. Mahalo ( Thank you in Hawaiian).
oh, I love to hear that , thank you for sharing :)
Oh that poncho was absolutely adorable, as are you. I liked your choice of colors and I liked the green fringe the best! Thanks again for your teaching and time ❤ Nana
Oh thank you!
I am going to recognize this project when you are done! I graduated high school in 1974! Everyone wore ponchos! I may have to make me a new one!
Ponchos were big in ‘71 I loved mine😁This one turned out beautifully 👏🧶I like the green fringe best.
Thank you so much, I really like the green fringe too, and I say it's time to make ponchos a thing again , I wear one at times , I have made myself 3 , but I live in AZ so I don't et too many chances to wer them lol
As usual - great video and you look great in the poncho. My daughter maintains you have to be happy while wearing a poncho! (Note to self; Make a poncho)
thank you! , and make a poncho! hahaha
This really is a beautiful pattern and I love how you frequently have oops moments and make mistakes. It helps me feel better when I keep having oops moments. That being said, Row 16 wasn't done right...however it still looks beautiful and no one will be able to tell! Something that is great about crochet. If you start out doing it wrong, just keep doing it the same way. No one will ever know! ❤😂❤
that's my Crochet motto lol, no one will know lol
I would love to see crochet items of all kinds, blankets, ponchos, shawls from 1960s & 1970s. 😍
Your channel is my favorite to listen/watch while I'm working on my crochet projects! You are extremely talented thank you for your hard work on these patterns.
Wow, thank you! so much :)
@justvintagecrochet very welcome!!
It must have been at the end of 1968/1969 and I was in elementary school. My parents had a friend coming over wearing this kind of poncho very often. She was named “little crotchet blanket” behind her back, in German: Häkeldeckchen :-) I loved this poncho and asked my grandmother to crotchet me one. What she gladly did.
that's so awesome :)
Hi I crochet ponchos in the 70s for children and sold them to a boutique to save money for my wedding.this has brought back happy memories.thanks for doing this.💝💝
I LOVE this pattern!! And your tutorial was wonderful! I'm not generally a big fan of ponchos but I love this one! Maybe because I was a teenager in the '70s and this reminds me so much of that time. Maybe it's because you look so pretty in it. Either way, as soon as I can use my hands again, I'd really like to make this poncho. And I really enjoyed your little history lesson at the beginning of the video! Well done! Thanks so much for this video. I can't wait to watch the next one! xx
Thank you! 😊I really think you will love this poncho! Im so sorry to hear that you are unable to use your hands at the moment, I can't imagine, so I hope you get better fast and get t crocheting sis !! :)
I love this. I was 2 years old in 71' 🤔, it was a great time to be a kid (at least for me). It looks fantastic all put together, I can't wait to make mine with some groovy colors . Thank you for another fun tutorial 🧶, have a great week.
Glad you enjoyed it! I wanted to make this one with brown and scarlet , but that would not have shown very well on camera , and thank you !! :)
@@justvintagecrochet Oooo that would have been stunning. You're welcome 🙂
I was a teenager in the 70's thanks for the memories. The poncho is fab. Looks great on you. Thanks for sharing. Best wishes x
Thank you! You too! , I was a kid of the 80s myself but a lot of the 70s was there :)
I'm almost through with my 1865 shawl, and thought I'd do the 1941 baby bonnet next (have two babies coming later in the year to make that or a blanket for), but now I have to put this on my list. I grew up in the 70's and used to have the coolest poncho and have mentioned it to my daughters often. Now I can make one and show them how great it was!!! Thank you!!! More please!!
Wonderful! That's so cool :) and Thank you
I love your channel & seeing you bring these older vintage patterns back to life. Im almost done watching it through first & will watch again as I make it along with you. Im a visual learner after my TBI so I really appreciate you going step by step. I also just learned about the stacked single crochets from you on the ends & I agree, it looks so much nicer. I'll only do that from now on. In the 70's I was a little girl & I can still see my ponchos I would wear all the time. I think in a box I still have my store bought navy blue one that had rows of flowers. Mine had slits where you could put your hands through instead of the sides lifting up when you needed to use your hands or lift your arms. Ive not seen anyone make ponchos current day that has those slits. Im curious in your search through old patterns if you've ever run across one like that. Id love to someday see a tutorial on that. I dont trust myself creatively to put that into a pattern myself. Sorry for the long comment but have a question out of curiosity. Do you knot your yarn ends together after a color change before weaving them in? I do knot them first, just concerned after many washings & wear the ends might start coming loose. I know I'm probably committing some kind of crochet sin. 😂 I hope you continue your channel with these vintage patterns for a long, long time.
PS- If Im a "fluffier" person shall I say 😉 do I just go up some hook sizes or increase the original chain, therefore increasing the length of each row?
first, Thank you so very much your your kind words :)
I do not knot the ends, but I also don't believe in crochet sins lol, I believe that Crochet has a theory but no rules, we are free to do things how ever we want and how ever works for us :) I think knotting them if 100% fine
I'm happy to look out for a poncho just like that , and will be very happy to make it :)
I thank you so much for your continued support by the way ... you take care
My favorite 70's poncho had the hand slits too! It was awesome.
my 70’s fav with arm slits was a cape rather than poncho pattern. My sister knitted it for me. I would think that Tunisian crochet would be fantastic to bring back
@@gin9562 that sounds great!
I tie my ends after a join. Like you, I don't want something to come apart after I've spent time and money to make it. The poncho with arm holes MAY BE (or may not be) called a cape or capelet rather than a poncho.
That is a beautiful and very current looking pattern, yet so simple!
It really is! I totally agree!! :)
Love it!
Oh what a lovely poncho, and I love the green colour choice so much. And! And it looks lovely on you! Just perfect for this time of year.
Being quite tall myself I'd likely would have to increase the pattern a little bit widthwise, and also break up the granny squares stitch pattern section with an insert of part of the green repeat section to lengthen the number of rows. Sadly the cheap yarns available in larger stores here in the UK are just that, cheap, and look even more so after a couple of washes. Thankfully I found a lovely recycled acrylic yarn in a local fabric shop, in a nice range of colours, a great feel to it and not at all splitty. I will give this poncho a go after the filet café curtains I'm halfway through for my kitchen curtains. I did wonder what to do next, this will be a nice and easy break from the fine cotton thread yarn, and something practical for the British summer 🌞.
Thank you so much for this video, it was such fun to watch! ❤️
oh , that sounds fantastic!! I would use a 5mm instead of the 4.5 as well to help you gain the right size :)
Too cute ,these were my favorite to make in the seventies. All the girls in the family had one. I'm making me one. Thank you 😊
What a cute poncho! I love it! And 1971 is a good year! It's the year I was born! 😄
oh! right on :)
Soo cute 👌
I Love it
It's perfect 😊
Yes I love it!
Wow that is gorgeous
I LOVE IT! ❤❤❤
Love it.
I'm firmly telling myself I need to finish the project I'm doing before I start another. I've decided that I'm going to make this one to go with it when I get done. 😁
So much dog hair! I'm always picking it out of my yarn lol.
Verry beautiful!!!
The poncho and the fringe are beautiful! I had thought the s+p fringe would be prettiest, but you were so right about the green, really lovely💗
Love this channel AND your other chanel! Thank you!!!
Pretty 🥰
That was fun!! Beautiful
Thank you!!❤❤❤❤
Beautiful
That turned out so nice love the color
This is a truly beautiful pattern.
This is stunning! It didn't look lacy in the original pic, so I was thinking it would be a very warm winter poncho. This would be perfect for a summer evening instead! Love your color choices, including using green for the fringe. Another intricate looking piece that you've shown how easy it truly is to make. Thank you for another excellent tutorial!
Thank you! 😊 and I agree , the drawing really didn't show off just how lacy and pretty it is, and yeah, it's perfect for summer!! :)
That is absolutely stunning! I said I would never make another poncho because they just look Grandma-ish... but this is completely amazing! I love the color choice as well, I have a bunch of the frosty green!!!! That looks fantastic with jeans!
Thank you so much!, Yeah, This one is a must make! I have worn mine out twice now and was complemented both times with one asking if I made it lol, I told her about the video :)
I have been so addicted to your channel, and love the poncho 😊
I have been crocheting for 12 years, and I know how to do most of the things. For some reason, I have never, EVER had to use or been shown a stacked single. It's just never come up as an alternative to a double or treble. I absolutely hate the way that the chains leave a huge floppy gap. This looks so much cleaner and fuller. Thank you so much for the lesson! I just found your channel last week and I've been making my way through some of your mystery pattern videos. The bag turned out super! I'm very happy to be a new subscriber. Hugs -Valeri
thank you so much :)
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
It turned out super cute and looks great on you!
So cute ! Love it ♥️
Thank you!! 😊
Oh wow. That turned out really cute and I agree with you on the choice of the green as the fringe. It's perfect.
Love this poncho!

Enjoy your poncho! it looks great on you, and you have an incredible smile. And as usual, I can think of someone who might like one of these. Why do you do this to me? Never mind the housework, there's crocheting to be done...I guess I can put the laundry off for yet another day...
Beautiful, thank you for teaching
You are so welcome
I'm making this with white and variegated satiny gold/silver/white. It's gorgeous.

Was a teen in the 70's love this poncho, I had one just like this. My grandmother made it for me.

This is so cute! I like the green fringe the most.
Me too!! and thank you
Tha poncho is so cute! ❤
thank you! :)
Awesome 😊thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊 and thank you
To change color I end of the row by breaking yarn and pulling through the loop. I start the next row, then work with both ends over the 'v' of the stitches. This secures the ends as I go. This makes each section secure. If one yarn snags and breaks, only one section can unravel.😊
Love it, I’m going to see what I’ve got in my yarn stash and make one. Thanks for the tutorial.
I love ❤️ it
I do too 😁😁, and thank you 🤗
Very cute. Looks good. Thanks👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️❤️🙏
Thank you!🤗
I have this book! My grandma gave it to me when she first taught me crochet. Haven’t made anything in it but that poncho has always intrigued me.
Oh, That's awesome! :)
Update I finished the poncho!! Used up old yarn so my sides are different colors but it looks great.
beautiful color selection
Thank you so much 😊
U are so informative ❤️ I don't get anxiety when following along with u & I appreciate that
In 1971 I was 13. I had a poncho ‘cuz they were so ‘cool’. Lol
This brings back fun and carefree times for me. Thank you!

Thank awesome! And thank you 🤗
I think I saw a pattern similar to this in my mom's stash of 100's of patterns.
In 1971 I was 8 yesterday old. Remember bell bottoms. My older sisters actually wore Elephant ear bell bottoms.
