I used some clips to just hold the two layers together. Make sure to ONLY cut the top pieces of your poncho.
Now you can cut up from your 13″ marks, heading in a straight line towards the pin you place on the side of the hood. Place a pin on either side of the opening for the hood. From the top on both the left and right, measure down 13″ and place a pin or clip. Start by folding your finished car seat poncho in half so the front portion of the poncho is face up.

This is an easy update if your child wants to have their hands free.
