Tried to reduce my stash again and made a two corner poncho using the virus (without granny this time) design. I used two machine knitting yarns together and mix the colours a bit.

Very nice!

Thanks.

Great work - I love this pattern and I'm tempted to use it again, but the Fiber Spider has so many more videos!

The first shawl I did was the South Bay pattern - I loved it but the Virus (with or without the Granny stripes) is a lot easier to remember.
I'll have a look at others to get some variation.
For mindless crochet I started another Corner to Corner cot size blanket.

This is gorgeous and if it hasn't already been claimed, I'm sure it will be very soon. Great job!

Thank you. And I'll let you know how long it takes...

What a fantastic pattern Martine. I love all the purples, pinks and soft pastel colours in this Poncho. I'd love it myself! I bet it won't last long in your hands! Love Chris

Thank you. I've got a lot of purple left.

I love your color choices. Funny I am currently using two threads together of machine knitting yarn to crochet the "Virus meets Granny". Just one color though. The last "Virus" one found it's way out of my home.

They have a tendency to find their way out, don't they.

Wonderful design and colors!!! Whoever ends up with it will love it!

I just love the fact that it is actually crochet!!!! That I can do....knitting, not so much.

Love the pattern and the colors! I haven't crocheted in a very long time. Maybe it's time to get the hooks out again!

I picked up my hooks two years ago,after what must have been 30 odd years of neglect. Well, it's like swimming and cycling - it comes back instantly albeit at lower speed to begin with.

Wish it were mine. Beautifully knitted and love the colours

Thank you. If you were closer (geografically) I'd love to give it to you.
By the way, it's crochet, not knitted.
