Here are a few of my favorite Poncho, Shawls, Shrugs, Wraps, Stoles, Ruanas, and Capes.
Shawls
Hairpin Lace Shawl- would make a great shawl for a bride
Sidewalk Shawl- I am not sure I like the fringe, but I love the pineapples
Center Square Shawl- has a large integrated square
Graceful Shell Shawl- looks comforting, yet light
Sunspree One Skein Shawl- small and simple shawl
Costa Mesa- a western looking shawl
Triangle Shawl- pretty and simple
Best Friends Shawl- I love the lace and diamonds and picot edging
Clapochet- a very narrow shawl that can also be worn as a scarf. It is done on the diagonal with an interesting stitch
Another Clapochet Shawl- would make a good stash buster
Mother of the Bride Shawl- very pretty shells
Comforting Shawl- pretty lace look to this pattern, and to me it looks like there are hearts in the lace
Paradores Infinity Scarf- this is a scarf that transforms into a shawl
Friendship Shawl- combined broomstick lace and square motifs- lacy and very pretty
Romantic Wrap- sophisticated lace
Diamonds Are a Girls Best Friend- lacy and elegant
Fall Shawl- nice plain shawl that would be a little warmth in the fall, but not heavy
Quick Crochet Fringed Shawl- looks like a nice project for a last minute gift.
Sangria Shawl- nice lacy look
Flamenco Wrap- I love the flower fringe on this and the way they show it wrapped around the hips of the model
Triangle Snap-Dragon Shawl- lacy and feminine
Holey Moley Shawl- I really like the multi-colored one that the model is wearing
Shrugs
Lovely and Easy Shrug- I made this one once and love it. If I ever make another I am going to make it a little shorter to make it easier to keep on my arms.
Crochet Magic Shrug- one size fits most women, finished size is 38" across back
Elegant Shrug- this is very sophisticated looking. It reminds me more of a jacket or bolero because it has sleeves and a collar
Cozy Shrug- this looks PLUSH
Simple Crochet Shrug- this one looks very cozy
Shrug- would work up quickly because it is done with two strands at the same time
Ponchos
Color Block Poncho- very teen trendy, but you could make it in more neutral colors for a sophisticated look
Multi-wear Poncho- looks great with a belt
Eastwood- this poncho and matching hat are in the style of the ones worn by Clint Eastwood in the famous shootout where he wore a metal chest plate under the poncho
Great with Jeans Poncho- simple but pretty (scroll down to see pattern on page
Leafy Green Poncho- very interesting texture from the stitch changes.
Pocahontas Poncho- I love the way the subtle changes in color tone create an earthy look
Collared Poncho with Flower- this is a nice warm looking poncho
Ruanas and Capes
Scarlet- granny square motif, victorian style Ruanna Cape
Sandi Marshal Cape- short, lacy cape
Wraps and Stoles
Purple Pizzaz Wrap- this is so lovely with different textures I just want to get my fingers into it
Vail Mountain Wrap- lacy, open squares
Zig-zag Shell Stole- this shell makes an interesting effect
Naples Wrap- very interesting stitch pattern that forms lace diamonds, very long with lots of options in how to wear it.
Shoal Wrap- blue with rippled edges
Shoal- pretty, warm looking wrap, with wavy boarder
Night and Day Wrap- I love the contrasting black and white colors and the textured design
Indian Summer Wrap- simple but very stylish
Oasis Wrap- this one is lacy and feminine but still has some weight to it. I love the way that they show different ways to wear the wrap on the model.
Sandals Wrap- very pretty motif but very open, making it more of an accessory than a functional wrap meant to keep you warm
Kigali Lace Wrap- colorful
Striped Wrap- could be done in any color combination
