Poncho like a candy

This candy-color yarn was impossible to resist in a yarn shop I visited in Kallio (Helsinki) the beginning of summer. I bought a few grams in baby blue and a few grams in multi-candy-colors, and started crocheting flower-squares.


I made a few squares, 24 of each color, to be exact.


After that, a bit of sewing together.


And ... surprisingly, I ended up with a poncho. My favourite piece of cloth!


This poncho is a birthday gift for my sister daughter Lumi, who just turned 12. We did the fitting today and delivery will be next Saturday in the party.


P.S. The little model here is not the birthday girl.
