This is a poncho I knit using one of those variegated cake yarns. The cake yarn has very long runs of one color before the color changes. This was an easy to knit poncho. It's kind of hard to photograph without a model. I donated my mannequin because I had no place to keep her and every time I would pick her up her limbs would fall off, so she was a pain to deal with. Plus having to drag her outside in the good lighting was also an ordeal, so off she got donated.

The opening is for the head. It can be worn so that the poncho points down like this in the front, or turned so that the sides are longer. |

You can see the color changes like a rainbow. |
The Sparks Avenue Poncho is a free pattern.

nice job, I've never knit a poncho before. I like the longer variegation its a really nice effect. I'm sorry to hear your lovely mannequin is gone but I understand the hassle of having her. She was a good model. great job as always
