Winnie & Buck Love My Poncho
“Hey gal, how much for that poncho?”
That’s Winnie & Buck behind me at the Harrah’s Casino.
Las Vegas is definitely unlike anything else I have ever encountered (and a great place to show off my new poncho!). It’s so bizarre, this city in the middle of the desert. But it did not even seem like a city, more like a huge strip mall with gambling and shows.
We only had a couple of hours, before Darren’s gig, to check out the casinos. Darren and I started at Harrah’s, made our way through Caesar’s Palace, wandered through the Bellagio where I gawked at this amazing Dale Chihuly glass ceiling sculpture –
and then we ended at the fountain –
Oh look, Paris is right over the horizon –
The end of a long night in Las Vegas –
And here are the specs on the poncho –
- Yarn used is Reynold’s Saucy 100% mercerized cotton on US 7 Addi Turbo needles.
- Pattern from Tahki Yarns Cotton Classic Spring / Summer Collection 2005, designed by Rosemary Drysdale.

Lovely poncho! Did you see Venice and NYC? I got a big kick out of the fake NYC this summer…
