David Bowie - Kidsilk Lace Assigned Pooling

This hand-dyed assigned pooling yarn pairs a soft lavender background with contrast sections in turquoise, purple, white and green. As you knit, the contrast sections form the motif for you: no colourwork, no stranding, just following the colour changes in the skein.

This is a non-directional yarn: you can work it from either end of the skein.

There isn't a dedicated stitch pattern for this colourway yet, but the Crescent Moon Stitch used for the Mist on Mt. Etna Shawl is a great place to start if you want to see this colourway pool. You'll find that free pattern on the blog.
