FIELD OF FLOWERS CRESCENT SHAWL - Knitting Pattern

Field of Flowers is a top-down crescent shawl that uses assigned pooling yarn to create a beautiful organic field of flowers.

Assigned Pooling
Assigned pooling colorways are made to be used with assigned pooling patterns. About three-quarters of the hank (loop of yarn) is dyed in one color, which is known as the main color. The other quarter of the hank is dyed in a contrasting color, which is known as the accent color. When you get to the accent color, you do a different stitch as specified in the pattern to showcase the accent color.

Yarn
You’ll need 2 skeins or between 800 and 1000 yards of fingering-weight yarn dyed for assigned pooling. That means about ¾ of the yarn is dyed in one color or color combination while the other ¼ is dyed in a different color or set of colors. The ¼ portion is known as the accent color, and that’s where the magic happens with assigned pooling.

I used Purple Lamb’s Monet’s Water Lilies colorway dyed on Sock Perfection for the sample.
