Pooling

I love how my Urban Girl yarn pools.

fingering weight yarn, pooled on the spool
Urban Girl Yarns Poly

It pools on the spool.

Sorry.  I think I've had too many cookies and not enough coffee.

But no matter my diet, I love the way the yarn pooled when skeined.  Thankfully it's not pooling like that on my knitting.

  1. The skein looks great, but no, that's not how I'd like my knitting too (one of the reasons I don't like variegated yarn). I do love how your shawl is working out. Such happy colors!

  2. I'm always unreasonably pleased when I cake up a skein of yarn and I get a pattern like this.

  3. It's always a bonus when it doesn't pool weird on the knitting!

  4. That is pretty! I might had to have kept that as a "pet" yarn cake. In my experience pretty skeins end up being ugly cakes.

  5. It looks like an argyle-spool! :-)

  6. Very pretty pooling. I've never seen a yarn spool. How cool is that?

  7. I laughed out loud! one of my friends is knitting a "pooling cowl" - she fiddled with the number of stitches to get it to pool and she's done a great job. Many of the socks I made back in the day with fingering weight yarn pooled and I always loved the look.
