The Pooling-On-Purpose Project

Knitters who love working with hand-painted yarn will welcome the projects in this booklet. Instead of avoiding pooling (colors "pooling" into one area on a garment), Kathleen Valentine, author of "The Mermaid Shawl & other beauties: Shawls, Cocoons & Wraps" teaches techniques for forcing colors to pool. This booklet contains instructions on how to work with the yarn and three projects knit in stockinette stitch (knit on the right side, purl on the wrong side): a simple wrap, a ruana-style shawl,and a kimono.
