Knit in deep blue hues, a medley of two-color patterns—among them, hound’s tooth, chevron, pinstripe and garter mosaic—recalls the look of oriental indigo patchwork. Solid sapphire Silk Garden Solo #3 Royal anchors the blue, cerulean, jade and ocher shades of Silk Garden colorway #373. The poncho is constructed from six long panels, each consisting of seven pattern blocks; midway through the centermost panels, the blocks narrow, creating the open-front silhouette.
