Assigned Pooling
Discover the magic of assigned pooling yarn ! This hand-dyed yarn is specially designed to create a pattern while knitting with a specific stitch. By using one or more contrasting colors in the skein, you can create a unique figure or color block in your work when following a specific knitting pattern.
Important: This is a directional yarn . This means the yarn must be worked in a fixed direction to achieve the desired effect. If you knit the yarn from the wrong side, you won't be able to create the desired pattern.
