 Entrelac
Entrelac is one of the great tricks of the
knitting world. Is it woven? Does it involve
a lot of sewing? None of the above. You'll
work with self-striping yarn which creates the
illusion that each small section is made from
a separate yarn source, when in fact you'll
be working with one continuous strand. It's
also a great opportunity to try the option of
“knitting back backwards” so that you can
work with the right side of the piece facing you
at all times. Choose the wide shawl version
or a narrower scarf version and finish with an
elegant knotted fringe.

A brand new stitch dictionary is full of stitch patterns
that will get your fingers itching to start knitting
Japanese inspired lace patterns. Heidi will show
you how to translate a page in a stitch dictionary
into your own scarf pattern. Things to think about

the chart to make it more friendly to your own
style of knitting. You’ll also learn a great new way of
working the decorative “nupps” that are included in
many lacework patterns.
