Instructions
- Print out the sewing pattern. The test box must be 5cm x 5cm. Stick the pattern piece for the hood (A) together along the line at a and 1.
- Cut the poncho according to the schematic on the last page. The length of the poncho can be changed as needed. It should be around knee-length. The poncho in the picture is 60cm x 75cm. To round the corners, use piece B. To cut out the neck hole, place piece C at the centre. The front and back are the same. All pattern pieces already have a 1cm seam allowance.
- Sew the shoulder seams. Sew the hood seams at the front and back, then finish the edges. Now sew the hood to the neck hole and finish the edges.
- Encase the outer edges of the poncho and hood opening with bias tape.
- Your swimming poncho is all done.
