I was ask to make a poncho for a friend of a friend. The lady uses a wheelchair and needs assistance with taking her coat on/off. So I was thinking of making a cape type poncho with side opening for arms, but not really any type sleeves, for easier on/off. Also. I'm considering just fringing it all around with a cape type front opening. I need a idea of measurements for fabric needed ,along with any directions on how to make/assemble. I am considering using a fleece blanket type fabric and need information on a good fleece(warm) store/web site.
