Marlais made from 2 strands of lighter-weight yarn that have been dyed separately and then plied together. When worked, Marla creates a marled fabric, where the colors are uniquely distributed.Sami, the semi-solid DK-weight sister to Marla, has a palette of 11 coordinating colors!

Stripes of semi-solid Sami remind us of Saturn's rings against a background of multicolor Marla. The shape is an asymmetrical triangle worked from one long point to the opposite short side, all in trusty garter stitch.
