Just came across your tutorial. How fun! I only do one wrap instead of two and it closes up the eyelets on either side of the florette stitch. I recommend you play with the stitch to see what you like. Definitely make a gauge swatch so you can play. You're a great teacher! I will be directing more people to watch your tutorial.
Can’t believe this showed up in my recommended! I just saw a video last night about the Aster stitch but it didn’t provide any patterns. I so wanted to make an Aster stitch shawl for a friend, and now I can! Thank you!
That's really cool. Funny how the internet knows.... Best wishes on your project. The designer contacted me and told me the way to minimize the holes is to only wrap once. I sure appreciated learning that and want to pass it on.
Yes, it's Dingley Dell by Isabell Kraemer, www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/dingley-dell. You can find the pattern on revelry. Also I did a show on it. ua-cam.com/video/bCJVgwKmEqI/v-deo.html Thanks for watching. ~Shiree
So when you get to the color in your yarn and are doing the double wrap...i thought i saw that the color section was not long enough but you continued to do the double wraps....am i correct?
The yarn I was using was dyed for the purpose of assigned pooling. Start the floret when the accent color starts, if it runs out before you're done with the floret just keep going till the floret is complete. The length of the dyed accent color may vary a little. Have fun doing it. I loved the color pop when it came along. ~Shiree
The pattern I did called Float by Dawn Barker of Chasing Rabbits Fiber Co., has you cast on 4 sts. Every time you reach your assigned pooling color you make a floret. My first floret happened about three rows up, with minimal stitches worked so far. Hope this helps. ~Shiree
That's a good question as I bought yarn that was dyed for assigned pooling so didn't have to think about it. Try some different things: maybe start the colored portion a few stitches before the assigned pooling, or try an adding extra stitch in the middle of the assigned pooling cluster. Good luck. I'd love to see how you work it out and what it looks like. rehashfiber@outlook.com. Thanks for watching. ~Shiree
Test knit a square first and experiment with the number of stitches that works best. You might find you need to do a 6 stitch cluster instead of 5. Cluster stitches can also come a little tight which is why the holes in this video are so visible, so when you wind round twice don't pull them too tight, try to keep them slack. It'll make it easier to increase 5 from 5 or 6 from 6 and those holes won't show anywhere near as much.
@@pamelasapia3790 Another thing I do is catch up loops and knit them together with the first and last stitch in the cluster. It works an absolute treat. I'm not sure how to describe it but I hope this makes sense. RS cluster: work cluster as normal; before you knit the next stitch pick up a stitch as if you were going to M1, then catch the bar under the next st; then knit them together with the next stitch after the cluster. On the return row, when you get to the last stitch in the cluster, repeat but purl together or purl together tbl. Brings in the following stitches really nice and tight. The stitches before and after look a little elongated but that disappears with blocking / against the contrast of the cluster and I infinitely prefer that to the holes. Hope this helps. Happy to share the info but please give me credit if you do xx

@@rehashfiber Thank you. I'm not sure how I feel about the holes yet. Once I get the yarn I'll have to play.
Thank you so much for this great lesson!
You're very welcome! ~Shiree

Im nit a knitter. Is there a way to do this in crochet?
Not that I know of.
Hi, Yes. Assigned pooling is available for crochet patterns too. "Stop, Drop, and Pop" by Joanne Scrace is a very cute crochet small shawl.
Do i have make 220 stiches before you start making the floret

What if your colored section is longer than the little blossom area?
