Rock Garden Trail is a right triangle assigned pooling shawl inspired by one of my favorite hiking trails in the Palo Duro Canyon of Texas.  Assigned pooling occurs when a change in texture is isolated within a change in color in a skein of variegated yarn.  One skein of assigned pooling yarn is alternated with two other contrasting tonal colorways to create a simple yet striking three-color garter stitch stripe punctuated by nupps.
