Violet Blaze - Deluxe Merino Sock Assigned Pooling

Violets that bloom as you knit. This hand-dyed assigned pooling yarn creates a flower motif as you knit: the contrasting purple sections in the skein become blossoms when you work them in a special stitch. No colourwork, no stranding. The yarn does it for you.

This yarn is not directional, so you can start from either end of the skein and still get the motif. Here's a tutorial video that walks you through the Double Lobe Stitch step by step, even if you've never tried assigned pooling before.
