Is it not possible to crochet a cowl neck poncho without using circular needle,i am just a beginner.
wonderlust:
this poncho is knitted, not crocheted, and you would want to use circular needles to hold all of the stitches.
The crochet needle is used here to easily attach the fringe. I hope this helps...let me know if you have any other questions. Marlat1112
