Make a No-Sew Fleece Poncho by Kimberly Danger

 

One of the characteristics of fleece is that it won't ravel, therefore no sewing is required!  Best of all, it's cheap.  With one yard of fleece you can make two adorable ponchos.  The fabric I found was a little over $5/yd at Wal-Mart, making each poncho just about $2.50.  There are dozens of cute fabric patterns and colors available too. 

These ponchos are not only stylish and snuggly, they'll fit your budget just right!

 

You'll Need:
One yard of 60” fleece of your choice (this will make two ponchos for a  small girl; if you have a toddler you can get by with 3/4 yard). 
Scissors
Large beads (optional)

Instructions:

1.  Cut your large piece of fleece in half.  Trim so that the pieces are perfectly square (approx. 30" x 30" for a girl; 27" x 27" for a toddler).  The two pieces should be large enough to make two ponchos for a toddler or young child.

2. Fold fleece in half diagonally

3. Find center of fold

4.  Cut a semi-circle around the center 5” inches across for neck (I traced a small bowl to help with this).

5. Cut fringe all the way around the bottom

Optional:  Tie a knot at the base of each fringe tassel

Optional: String one wooden bead on each fringe tassel before tying the knot
