All the Colors of the Wind

In knitting and crochet, planned pooling is where a skein of yarn is space-dyed in a specific pattern so that when you work a particular number of stitches, the colors “pool” together and create a pattern—magical!

Andrea Deck used this method to create a weaving pattern based on a beautiful sunset photo. But instead of using space-dyed yarn, she decided to spin a yarn for the weft that would magically change colors as she wove.
