Crocheted poncho-cape

Preparing for autumn and winter I crocheted this easy cape or ponco(?) You  don't find it much easier than this. I always have something to crochet or knit when  I  watch the telly, travelling by ferry or bus, etc. This has been perfect. No fuzz at all.

I love the red colour

From the back

Here you can see how easy this is. I have no buttons, hooks or anything on it.

I had to crochet a litte bit of pattern - or it would have been a little dull

 Maybe I can use it over a coat aswell?

How I worked it:

I used woolyarn Superwash Sport, crochet needle nr 6. Here are som short guidelines to how I made it. (American terms first/uk terms)
I worked 175 ch/ch
1.row: all single crochet/double crochet
2.row: all half double crochet/half treble
3.row; 2 ch +1 ch, "1 hdc in every second hdc, 1 ch,"
4.row: 1 hdc, 1 ch, "1 hdc in next hdc, 1 ch"
I made 4 rows of hdc/htr and 6 rows of the the pattern from 3. and 4.row (little squares)

The gap/hole for the head is about 23 ch/hdc long made over 4 rows.
