About Planned Pooling

Planned pooling is a technique whereby you use the colors of a variegated yarn to form patterns as you knit or crochet. I happen to like this argyle or diamond pattern, but there are many other variations out there, thanks to David, creator of http://plannedpooling.com who designed an amazing application to help us with this. It takes a little bit of thought at first, but once you understand your particular pattern, it’s pretty simple.

Written PDF Pattern

First, click on the below link. The pattern is a PDF. You will need a program that can read PDFs like Adobe Acrobat. Many web browsers can also access PDFs. However if you have any issues accessing the file, try another web browser, or Adobe Acrobat.
