Surge is a single-skein triangle bandana scarf that uses the novel concept of assigned pooling.

Assigned pooling isolates texture changes within shifts in color in a specially dyed skein of variegated yarn. In this design, stockinette stitch is assigned to the main color, resulting in a smooth backdrop for the linen stitch worked in the accent color. Surge is a smaller, more compact version of my Mend shawl.

Yarn​​: One skein of Barker Wool Silky Solo in any assigned pooling colorway.
Shown here in Aurora.
