After messing around with stranded colourwork I decided to try combining that with a gradation of colours. Good for practice in maintaining correct tension when changing colours.

You can use any combination of colours in your favourite fibre, but this pattern will work best with DK/8ply yarn.

You can swap out the button at the top for a pompom if you like, I just got tired of trimming the pompoms I make into spheres… It takes so long to get it just right!
