Regular price $28.00

For several years, I have dyed Crocuses in Snow as a lovely speckled colorway in the early spring. This year, I decided to make a change and make Crocuses in Snow an assigned pooling colorway.

Three quarters of the skein is white with several kinds of purple speckles. The other quarter is a deep purple just like a beautiful crocus flower.

While this colorway can be used for any project, I made it especially with assigned pooling in mind. Assigned pooling is a new technique created by Dawn Barker that uses a skein of yarn with one quarter of the skein dyed one way and three quarters of the skein dyed in a distinctly different color or combination of colors. When you get to the portion that takes one quarter of the skein, you do something different. Take a look at Dawn Parker's beautiful patterns to see what I mean. I am also in the process of working up some patterns of my own.

I dyed this yarn on Squoosh DK yarn base using my Splashed and Speckled method, which means each skein contains the same colors but in different places, making each one unique.
