Macrame Poncho by Mary Jane Hall - my beautiful Romanian DIL Anca |
I was obsessed with Macrame in the 70's and will soon post some of my Macrame work, some of which are a Tiffany lamp, hanging tables, wall decor, purses and jewelry. I designed and created this very easy Macrame poncho in 2004. I actually had seen a crochet poncho online that was crocheted with the Lover's Knot Stitch, which is also called the Soloman's Knot. It looked so much like the macrame square knot to me and I was fooled by it. At the time I had never worked the Lover's Knot and thought the stitch in that crochet poncho looked almost identical to macrame! So I created this and even sold a bunch of the patterns on eBay back then. Macrame has begun to come back and you can even see many fashion designers show macrame garments on the runways!
If anyone is interested in purchasing my macrame poncho pattern, please let me know and I will put it up for sale here on my blog right away. Just get my attention by leaving a comment here, on Facebook, Ravelry or by email. I'm swamped with other things, but if you bring g it to my attantion, I will put it up for sale here with a link to Paypal. This is prettier in person!

UPDATE: several people have asked for this pattern here, through email and Instagram so it's been brought to my attention. I'll do my feet best to look for this pattern. I'm not sure it got transferred from my old computer to my laptop, but I'll keep looking.
