A quick fun knit for my daughter using a variegated yarn. No sewing involved.
The pattern is on Ravelry.

Lovely, well done! Very tempting to make…

Beautiful- what ply wool did you use ?

Ali23 Tue 22-Nov-22 07:25:49

That is beautiful! Love the way that the yarn has enhanced the shapes.

Great work- the yarn really works with the shape.

That looks gorgeous - I love the colours! I’m sure your dd will be delighted!

This is really lovely. I agree with everything above and I the the neckline looks very attractive. Do you mind letting us know where you got the pattern.

Thank you Cocopops
Lovely colours

I made a poncho for DD but it was a very wide, long scarf which was then sewn partway, easy, but yours is much nicer.

There are dozens, Ladyleftfieldlover!

It looks like Bernice Vollick’s 50 x 50 Poncho #075

Beautiful- what ply wool did you use ?

British, American and Australian yarn ply categories are all different which can be confusing.

It's an American pattern and mentions 3 ply and 12 ply.

* NorthFace* has posted the link to the pattern up thread. Thanks .
I bought the yarn here in Canada but if you can see British yarns that knitters have used when you look at related "projects"on Ravelry. James Brett marble popular.
