Waching daily Feb 20 2018

hi I'm Kristin Omdahl. Welcome back to my studio today I want to show you how

to make this beautiful and deceptively simple celebration poncho it starts with

a triangle you start at the top here and you work your way down increasing as you

go to make one solid triangle then you join a secondary smaller triangle to the

side of the larger triangle as you go on one side and then on the other to create

a rectangle then we repeat the entire process for the back and join them

together to make this beautiful poncho that you can wear in a number of ways

follow the links to my website where you can download this beautiful pattern as

well as order be so fine yarn you'll need two balls to make this project and

this is shown in colorway sangria let's get started I have one half of the

poncho completed already so you I can ship so I can show you what we're going

to be doing today first we're going to start here at the top Center and work as

a top down increase in construction for this Center triangle okay so this is the

original piece that we're going to make and then we're going to come and join

halfway up one of the sides and do a top down increasing triangle that joins to

the original triangle as we go for one side and then we're going to come over

here and do the same thing over here and by adding these two join as you go many

triangles to the original large triangle we then get this great rectangle for

making a beautiful figure flattering poncho the project uses be so fine yarn

which is fingering weight yarn but to show you the stitches a little bit

bigger on camera today I'm using my worsted weight organic cotton and bamboo

blend be so bold yarn and I'll be using a size H 8 5 millimeter crochet hook but

if you're doing the actual pattern with be self fine yarn

you'll be using an e 4 or 3.5 millimeter crochet hook depending on the look

you're going for because this is a top-down construction you could actually

do this project on any weight yarn you'll just want to make your first

triangle the length that you want your entire piece to be and the width you

want your entire piece to be and that's set and the smaller triangles will then

just fill in the gaps to make it a rectangle you're going to need two

rectangles to make the poncho I have one done already and now let's get started

on the large main triangle we start by tying our yarn to our crochet hook you

can use a slipknot a square knot whatever you prefer we're going to start

with a chain 4 and work 8 double crochets in the fourth chain from your

hook the fourth chain to count four chains you want to skip the loop on your

hook that is not a chain that's your working loop so we're going to go we're

going to count back one two three and four double crochet is yarn over your

hook insert your hook into the chain yarn over pull up a loop yarn over and

pull through two loops on your hook yarn over pull through two loops on your hook

there so the chain three that we skipped counts as our first double crochet

that's our second we want a total of nine so we have to chain three plus

eight double crochets for a total of nine double crochets in that last chain

you

and this is what the end of row one should look like Row 2 begins with the

chain seven the chain seven counts as our double crochet four three chains and

then chain four so it's a double crochet chain four we're going to turn our work

and double crochet in the first stitch yarn over your hook insert your hook in

the first stitch yarn over pull up a loop yarn over pull through two yarn

over pull through two so now that chain seven and double crochet counts as a

double crochet chain four double crochet we're going to chain four okay then in

the space after the first three double crochets but before the fourth double

crochet we're gonna double crochet in that space between the two stitches yarn

over insert your hook yarn over pull up a loop yarn over pull through two loops

on your hook yarn over pull through two loops on your hook okay so we double

crocheted in the space between the two stitches we're going to chain 4 skip

three stitches and double crochet in the space before the next stitch yarn over

insert your hook in the specified space yarn over pull up a loop yarn over pull

through two yarn over pull through two chain four and double crochet chain four

a double crochet all in the last stitch the last stitch was the first chain

three that counted as a double crochet in the last row so to double crypt so to

work into the chain three that counts as a double crochet you're actually working

into the third chain of that chain three space so we're going to yarn over insert

our hook in the top chain of that chain three which be the top of the double

crochet equivalent yarn over pull up a loop yarn over pull through two yarn

over pull through two chain four and double crochet in that same space

and this is what the end of row 2 should look like

you should have five chain four spaces Row three begins with a chain three turn

your work in the next chain 4 space we're going to work three double

crochets now you're not working on two into any stitches you're just working

into that large space

okay skip the next stitch and in the next chain for space work three double

crochets

the next chain for space is our center chain for space and then we're going to

work 9 double crochets

in each of the next 2 chain 4 spaces we're going to work three double

crochets each

then you want to work a double crochet in the last stitch well the last stitch

is well it would have been the first stitch at the beginning of the last row

which was a chain seven that counted as a double crochet chain four so if you

want to crochet into the double crochet part of it

you want to count up three chains and in the top of that third chain would be the

double crochet equivalent and you'll double crochet into that chain and this

is what the end of Row three should look like Row 4 begins with a chain seven

that counts as a double crochet chain four turn your work and double crochet

into the first stitch chain 4 skip the next three stitches and double crochet

in the space before the next stitch chain 4 skip the next three stitches and

double crochet in the space before the next stitch and this is what you will

repeat across to the end of the row skip the next three double crochet in the

space before the next chain four okay so in the last stitch which was a chain

three that counts as a double crochet which means we're going to work into

that top third chain we're gonna work double crochet chain four double crochet

so double chain four

and double

and that's what the end of row four should look like row five we start with

a chain three Turner work work three double crochets in the next chain 4

space

and we're going to repeat that all the way until we get to the center chain 4

space so in every side chain 4 space we're going to work three double

crochets then in the center one work 9 double crochets oK we've come to the

center chain 4 space so now we're going to work 9 double crochets there and then

we'll work three double crochets into each of the last 4 chain 4 spaces and

double crochet in the last stitch

remember the last stitch is part of that chain 7 the counter does a double

crochet chain 4 so you want to find the third chain that would count as the top

of the double crochet and work your last double crochet there and this is what

the end of Row 4 should look like Row 5 begins with a chain 7 if it counts as a

double crochet chain 4 turn your work and double crochet into the first stitch

chain 4 skip the next three stitches and double crochet in the space before the

next stitch and we're going to repeat this across the entire row and then in

the last stitch work the increase like we did in the first stitch with a double

crochet chain 4 double crochet

okay we're down to our last stitch now which is a chain three that counts as a

double crochet so make sure that you're working into the top or third chain of

that chain three to count as the top of the double crochet and you're going to

work double crochet chain four and double crochet all into that same stitch

and that's what the end of row five should look like you want to repeat rows

four and five for the desired length of your first triangle in the next section

I'm going to show you how to join one of the many triangles to the side of this

larger triangle as we go this is what it should look like at the end of row six

you want to repeat rows five and six for your desired size of your first triangle

for the demo we're going to be using a triangle this size which is rows one two

three four five six seven eight so we're working through rows eight you're going

to want to repeat rows five and six for whatever size triangle you're going to

be using at this point you want to mark the chain for space that is halfway

between the corner and the center so here's our corner here's our Center

chain for space so you want to count back from each side to find the center

so one each one each one each this is the center one this is the spot where

you're going to join your yarn with a slip stitch and begin one of the smaller

triangles to fill in this gap to create the triangle into a rectangle

okay so holding on to that spot so holding on to that chain 4 space we're

going to join our yarn with this slip stitch

chain 3 and slip stitch into the next chain 4 space now working in the first

chain 4 space we slip stitched into we're going to now work 9 double

crochets and slip stitch into the next chain 4 space this is what the end of

the first row should look like on the smaller triangle now we're going to

chain 3 slip stitch into the next chain 4 space on our large triangle chain 4

turn our work and now in the first double crochet on the first row of the

small triangle work a double crochet chain 4 now in the space after those

first three double crochets but before the fourth we're going to double crochet

chain 4 skip the next three stitches and in the net in the space before the next

work a double crochet chain 4 and in the last stitch we're going to learn double

crochet chain 4 and slip stitch into the next chain 4 space I'm the original

triangle and this is what the end of Row 2 should look like for the small

triangles we'll set this back so you can see the main triangle and you see we've

worked back and forth joining as we go we have two rows complete of our mini

triangle now we're going to chain 3 slip stitch into the next chain 5 chain 4

space turn our work and in that first chain 4 space work three double crochets

in the next chain for space work three double crochets in our center chain for

space work 9 double crochets

for double crochets in the next chain for space

three double crochets in the next chain for space and slip stitch into the next

chain for space I'm the original triangle this is what

the end of this row looks like that would be row three of our small triangle

that's joined as you go to the large triangle we're now ready to do our final

row here which is to chain 3 and slip stitch into the next chain 4 space chain

4 turn your work double crochet into the first stitch on the previous row chain 4

in between the first 3 stitches and the fourth stitch we're going to double

crochet in that space chain 4 skip the next 3 stitches double crochet in the

space before the next stitch I'm going to repeat this all the way across

in the last stitch we're going to work double crochet chain four no barely

gonna make it on this one and slip stitch into the next chain 4 space on

the original triangle ok and you can see we now have one of our small triangles

completed on to the large triangle so this half is now turned into a rectangle

and I'll show you what it looks like when you end up doing both sides you now

have a rectangle and then you're going so then once you have both of those done

you're gonna either sew from the shoulder to the edge or you can

crocheted them together or you can follow the decorative stitch that I used

when you go to download the free pattern on my website remember that this is a

smaller size version of the poncho for the demonstration you want to make sure

that you're repeating rows 4 and 5 until you have completed your small triangle

and you'll know when you're done because you'll have joined to the corner chain 4

space and the center chain 4 space on your original triangle I hope you

Can Going To Magic Kingdom In The Rain Still Be Fun? Don't Let Bad Weather Ruin Your Day At Disney! - Duration: 9:17.

Cohen, your Monorail is here! Are you happy? Uh huh!

Monorails are amazing!

You're right...they're amazing!

Oh, look there everybody!

There's the Castle!

There's the Town Square Theater. There's Main Street, City Hall, Fire Station.

The Emporium, my favorite gift shop. And we're in Magic Kingdom! Awesome! It's about time

for the three o'clock parade. They're starting to rope things off and tell

people to walk on the sidewalk. But we're gonna do something else while the parade

is going on. Sometimes it's a good idea, if you've already done the parade, and

then you can also ride rides while the parade is going on. And the wait is not

as long for the rides then. The castle is amazing every time I see it. So, what do

you do on a rainy day at Magic Kingdom? We knew it was gonna rain, but we weren't

about to miss a day at Magic Kingdom, since it was our last day in the parks.

So, we decided to find what we can do indoors, and there's actually lots of

things. If it's not raining very hard or just intermittently, the rides will run

whenever possible. The Carousel is still going now. It was raining earlier, and it's

probably gonna rain again, but for now you can ride the carousel. And they'll do

the carousel in the light rain because it's under cover, and the winds not blowing hard.

Nice and dry under here! "It's A Small World" is a great choice, too.

We've been excited for Cohen to try this ride for a long time! "It's A Small World",

and it's only a 15-minute wait. I think "It's A Small World" is gonna be one of

Cohen's favorite rides. One of those he'll get off of and say, "I want to do it again!"

Can I ride in your boat, me and grandma? Can we ride with you? Can me and grandma do that with you, and Matt? Yes!

There's Pinocchio Village Haus as you're going by.

It says. "Do the chicken dance", up there!

Wow!

I like those goats.

Mickey's Philharmagic is a great option when it's raining. It's a great show any

time, but if you need a place to hide out for 20 minutes or so, try it out. The show

is only about 10 minutes, but there is waiting time for it to start. And you

won't get wet!

Alright everyone, put on your opera glasses, because it's time

to present Maestro Mickey Mouse and the

Philharmagic Orchestra!

Philharmagic is a great thing to do on a rainy day in Magic Kingdom.

You can always explore the gift shops on a rainy day.

They give you cover for a long time. There's always lots to look at.

You can hang out in a restaurant while you wait for the weather to clear.

There's usually lots of room in most of the restaurants. If it's a brief shower, just

sit it out and wait for it to break. Princess Fairy Tale Hall is a good

hideaway.

Use your muscles Mister...pull it out! Pull up, Cohen, up, up, up! Maybe next time!

Would be a good time to spend some time in the Hall of Presidents.

If it's just a light rain, they'll go ahead and do Jungle Cruise. Here's our boat the Ganges Gertie.

Well, we begin our journey here the Amazon rainforest where it rains 365

days a year. That's like almost every day.

Right over there are some fake gnus. It looks like we're now in a dangerous

hippo pool, you guys. They can easily capsize the boat, so I'm

gonna try to scare them them away.

I love you!

I want a commitment!

Meet my parents! Well, that's never failed to scare anyone away before. Well, at this

point in our touring I would like to point out just a few of my favorite

plants that we have out here in the jungle.

Any questions? Okay! I really wanted to get you all some souvenir plants to take

home with you, but I just hadn't botany. Well, what did you guys do so far here that was so fun

at the Magic Kingdom? This!! That's a good answer - The Jungle Cruise was a lot of fun.

My name is skipper Ryan, and if you didn't laugh, thanks for leaving, it's been a pretty

long time ten minutes of silence with you just staring at me.

Check out the Enchanted Tiki Room. That'll keep you dry for a little while. You can listen to the chitter chatter of

little birds instead of listening to the pitter-patter of the rain.

One of the best places to spend a rainy day for a while is Pirates of the Caribbean.

The long queue will hold a lot of people and then the ride lasts a while.

And here's an idea I know that Disney would approve of...spend some time in a

gift shop and buy something, anything. You can hang out with the Bears

in Country Bear Jamboree. It's a wild and wooly good time,...and dry.

It's raining pretty good now so we're gonna go to the Haunted Mansion. It's got a covered queue

and a decent length of the ride. You're gonna ride it anyway, so if you

know it's gonna rain, wait to ride it until it does rain.

We'll call Haunted Mansion, "Screaming in the rain"!

It's raining pretty good now, so "It's A Small World" looks like a good place to go.

Winnie The Pooh is pretty busy now. The Mad Hatter's Tea Party. We'll call this one, "Spinning in the Rain".

It's under good cover. And a covered queue. And if you're wet, maybe you can dry off

a little bit here when you're spinning around. You can spin dry!

I'd say the rain isn't stopping very many people from having a good time.

We're in the "Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin" line.

It's dry under the queue. We are wet we are having fun. Donna's not too happy about being wet.

I hate this! But we're still having fun!

Don't let a little rain ruin your Disney day.

You have saved our lives! We are eternally grateful!

One of the most perfect places to be in the rain is the People Mover! But tonight we've got to walk through this

big old puddle to get there. There's some deep water. Wow!

"Monsters Laugh Floor" is a good bet, too.

Fortunately, the rain held off enough for them to do the fireworks. A perfect ending

to the day.

This is the end of our night at Magic Kingdom.

Here comes our monorail. It was wet but it was fun. We always have fun at Disney!
