The Language Of Fans is a rectangle shawl combining the innovative technique of Assigned Pooling with lace knitting for an all-new stitch collab.
Assigned Pooling occurs when a new texture is isolated within a specific color range in a skein of specially dyed yarn. Classic Feather & Fan lace is assigned to the main color to create a backdrop of waves for multiple nupps in a row assigned to the accent color. It’s knit flat in two contrasting colorways; one engineered to work with Assigned Pooling plus one contrasting tonal.
