Entrelac

I've been completely fascinated with Entrelac lately. Something about how you create a fabric that looks woven but isn't, I guess.

I started Lucy Neatby's garter stitch entrelac scarf last night, and it's amazing how quickly it's working up.

My next entrelac project will be Julie Anderson of blacksheepbags.com's Dorothy Bag.

There's also a neat entrelac scarf on Knitty called Danica. They also have a scarf they call "cheater's entrelac" called Argosy.

You can save a ton of time knitting Entrelac by learning to knit back backwards. I taught myself to do it using this Knitty article.
