Assigned Pooling Patterns

I developed the concept of Assigned Pooling when I was asked to teach a class about the best ways to use hand-painted, variegated yarns. After many hours of research, trial, and error, Assigned Pooling was born. I currently have over 20 patterns available using this concept, but more are on the way! Look for Float, Mend, Sprout, Calico, Drift, Roam, Ramble, Swarm, Twinkle, Glide, Floriculture, Fizz, Pop, Bloom, Llano, Summerhouse, Eventide, Froth, The Language Of Fans, Wallflower, and A Murder Of Crows under the PATTERNS tab above and on Ravelry. Specially designed variegated skeins for use in Assigned Pooling patterns can be found under the HOUSE COLLECTION tab. Just look for the skeins marked “AP”.
