Keeley is a poncho inspired by the well-known Easy Folded Poncho by Churchmouse Yarns and Teas. It is an example of what you can do with four colors making six marls.

To customize your own, choose four colors of fingering-weight yarn and make microswatches to explore how to order them.

You can also use the pattern as a framework to design your own marl sequence with a different number of stripes.

The yarn is John Arbon’s Devonia. Devonia comes in a beautiful palette of fourteen colors and has the classic luster of long wools.

The working yardage is 550 yards and the dimensions of the poncho are 16 x 23 inches (41 x 58 cm).
