Illumination! Gotcha now, thanks for the pic.

I've been thinking more in these terms:

I'll figure something out...

Take a square piece of paper.
Turn it so it's shaped like a poncho.
Fold it in half.
Lay it down so there is a point at the front bottom, and the long edge (fold) at the top.
Cut from the front point straight up to the fold.

There it is!

In polar fleece, it is stretchy enough that you don't need a 'hole'.

Good point!

I kind of like the ones like I posted above, just a neck hole, no front opening, so I may just cut a sort of oval (not very wide, good point about stretchiness) right in the center of it.

Can't get more simple than that.

It might poof out at the shoulders, will decide if I'll tailor it at all. If it has enough drape it should be fine.

(Polar fleece!! Of course!)

Since I'm a knapsack wearer (vs. knapsack carrier), the no front opening versions don't work for me. I like to be able to move my arms - grab things ... the front opening ones allow me to wear my knapsack, do the stuff I need to do.

Polar fleece is good and drapey. In an emergency - like a cold motel room in northern Michigan - the item (shawl/poncho ...) can be used as an under-the-motel-room- comforter-blanket.

littlek, I think it's because the UPS truck has a more aggressive sound than the FedEx truck. My dogs (the smaller one especially) love a challenge.

In what religious faction does the woman wear a draped black sheet-thing from head to toe? Jainism? Maybe not. The man was wearing mostly white, kind of Arabian Nights attire with a white fez-type hat. The baby was dressed like any American child. The woman had glasses on over her sheet-thing, which looked really odd because her eyes weren't visible through the fabric.

They were shopping for body lotion.

I'm too busy and focusless to post in (or do justice to) any of the new topics, so I'll just keep my base of operations in this little corner for now.

Wearing soft very cozy pink pajamas with a purple wildflower pattern, pink chenille socks. But not for long. Watching the leaves fall outside my windows. Hey! Is that Seed dropping his leaf? He's going to get arrested for indecent exposure.

It's almost Halloween and I haven't decided what to ...be. We get almost no trick-or-treaters on my street, so if we buy candy, it will have to be something we like, but who gives out organic high-cacao content chocolate on Halloween?

Asbestos?
Look at the sidebar to the left of the post. Under your flirty avatar are the lines:
"Joined: 03 Apr 2004"
"Posts: <number of your posts at this time>"
At the timer that post was written, the number was 666. As I write this the number is now 668.
