Part of my Stitch Collab series, Nona’s Waltz is a bias triangle shawl with a stitch pattern that mimics the look of embroidered flowers on a field of contrasting blocks by combining the innovative technique of Assigned Pooling with slipped stitch colorwork. Assigned Pooling occurs when a change in texture is isolated within a change in color within a skein of variegated yarn. Simple slips and knits are assigned to the contrasting tonal and background colors to create a checkered backdrop for the Aster Stitch assigned to the accent color.
