Breezeway is a large rectangle wrap combining the innovative technique of assigned pooling with slipped-stitch colorwork knitting for an all new stitch collab.   Assigned pooling occurs when a new texture is isolated within a specific color range in a skein of specially dyed yarn.   A repeating slipped-stitch pattern  creates a grid of rectangular shapes reminiscent of architectural breeze blocks punctuated with nupps assigned to the accent color.  Breezeway is knit flat in two contrasting colorways; one engineered to work with assigned pooling plus one contrasting tonal.  

I purposely kept the color contrast low and played up the texture contrast in this original version by mixing two different bases. I used New Hope on BFL Fingering for the contrasting tonal and Rusted on Silky Solo for the assigned pooling portion. The mat finish of the BFL lets the shimmer of the Silky Solo really shine. A high color contrast pairing would work beautifully too though.
