This might be the most versatile poncho/shawl/wrap you ever crochet. It can be any of these things and be changed as the mood takes you. The photos show some variations. You will probably think of more.
This garment is so versatile that, should the need arise, you can, in two minutes, split it into two pieces so you can give half to a friend. It is very easy to make and can be made to any size, using any yarn, although it is not recommended for very small children.
These three photos show basic shawls made from the same pattern, in a variety of yarns.
