This updated version of the classic Folded Poncho is a blast to make! Developed by Kit Hutchin, she has us roll the dice to determine stripe placement and number of rows. This stunning beauty is available in two color options, rainbow and neutral using 6 to 10 colors of Felted Tweed. You can also view all Churchmouse Classics Patterns.
I knit English style, so this scarf took forever to do. But the colorwork was so much fun that I didn't mind. Great project to work on while you're chatting with friends (like, at knitting group ;->). Will be making more of these for gifts.
This is an easy pattern -- the only part that was a little tedious was casting on 648 stitches. Just make sure to use the markers ever 50 stitches as recommended. A scarf that is a little different!
