"The Entrelac Hat"
Tamie Hageland
Tuesday March 13 & 27

Beginner II
$30.00
Demystify Entrelac! While the end result resembles "basket woven" strips of knitted fabric, the process requires no more knowledge than to knit, purl, and pick-up stitches. Instead of working one row of stitches after another, you work one row of blocks after another. Use a self striping yarn and the color changes are done for you! Let this pattern be your first adventure into entrelac, and have everyone asking..."How did you do that????
