The poncho, due to using two strands at one time can create a marled effect. For all sizes, 6 balls of Caron Simply Soft are required. It is marled, meaning two strands at one time. 3 of one colour, 3 of another. For visual interest, I used 3 balls of Caron Simply Soft Tweeds and 5 balls of Caron Simply Soft Ombre. Ombres are smaller ball sizes. I just needed a few inches of the 5th ball. You may need 6 balls of Ombre if you are doing the x-large size ahead.
My version turned out pretty awesome.

Anyone else having the issue of the neck opening being too large? I'v of thee made two of these thus far, thought the first one (large) was the issue, but the second one was a small and despite stretching the short edge when slipstitching the piece together, it still falls right off my shoulders (and I do not have narrow shoulders). On my first one, I had to do several rows around the neck decreasing my stitches to close up the hole some, but lost that nice V at the neck. Just trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance!

I made the poncho with Lions Brand Feels like Butta. I followed the tutorial for the XL and it was way too small. I gave it to my 9 year old daughter who loved it! I really love the look of this poncho but I am very nervous to try it again. Could it have been my yarn?

Yes I cannot get the neckline right, it does not line up like Mikey showed in the video. I am so upset, I have spent a lot of time and money on this project and it is useless now since I have sewed the seam, and the yarn (charisma tweed in cream) makes it very hard to see the stitches of the join. I followed exactly thru the whole pattern, was to be a Christmas gift for my daughter.

Hi Mikey,
I can not figure out the first fold. You are too zoomed in on the edge to tell how the fold looks before we start sewing. Can you send a picture of the entire shawl once you do the first fold before you sew?
