Things to Make: Pinterest Inspiration Customizable Crochet Poncho

Hey, Everyone!
This week's

was inspired by this...

Customizable Crochet Poncho

...found on my Things to Crochet Board.
I loved the way this looked...so I thought I'd give it a try!
Following the pattern linked here, I created my own!

I used Red Heart Soft yarn in Leaf, and embellished with some cool repurposed branch button I had purchased on Etsy, here. I LOVE the color; and it has lovely drape.

It was really simple to work up...it's soft and warm...but not too bulky! Perfect for Fall! The only thing I would have changed was the width of the neck opening...I love it!
What do you think?
