To Knit/Sew/Crochet or *Buy* (my favourite)

Brrr it's getting cold these mornings & evenings and I'm perusing the big wide web looking for a easy to knit/or very easy to crochet "poncho" patterns. Has anyone got a favourite that they recycle year to year? Of course I would like it to have magical powers and make me look 10x slimmer (taller too would be nice) !! I'll keep looking - but if anyone can help I would love to hear from you.

April Fool's

"Pinch, Punch, 1st day of the month" is what I woke up to this morning. So to be fair I ran around the house applying payback to anyone slower than myself. To start the day off differently puts a slant on how your day will continue & mine got better and better. My car was finished earlier than expected, I found some gorgeous Japanese fabric for a table runner, I got home & put the dishwasher and washing machine on - thereby getting an early start on the weekend PLUS it turns out I won an on-line pattern competition for a dress! that my teenager daughter actually wants me to make for her to wear!! So today who was the Fool? Not me - I had a great day :)
