This unique dye effect creates a small blip of color in a section of the skein. Try my purposeful color pooling pattern for a reversible effect!

You’ll want to choose a yarn that will do a pooling effect. This is usually a skein of yarn that has a small section of color.

Notes
This pattern almost doesn’t have a “pattern”- meaning, you will work different stitches based on the color you are working with.
My scarf is working into a “zig zag” pattern, which was unexpected and fun! What will yours turn into?

I also made a youtube video on how to work this technique https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FXcoclj9SQs&t=12s
