Round knot cables adorn the bottom and the top of this poncho. A high collar gives it a noble look, hence the name Donia; Celtic for rules all. The upper part is picked up and knitted from the lower cable panel and worked in stockinette stitch with shaping for the shoulders. The short sleeves in rib hold the poncho together. You can wear it with a belt or a shawl pin to gather it at the front or loose, just as you prefer.

Linda Marveng
I design knitwear that are classic with a stylish twist and a textural feel for strong independent women, who have found their style. I aim for an elegant style, but love seeing knitters giving my designs a more edgy, funky style. My garments can be moulded by you, to fit your style. As a designer I aim to create garments you can wear for work, leisure and parties or special occasions, preferably all in one garment which you can dress down or up as you wish. Challenging knits, is what I am passionate about. I want to share with you the sense of accomplishment as well as joy, the making and finishing of a knitted garment gives. So that you can be proud to wear your handmade knits.
