Otter Creek Fall Knitting Workshops

Entrelac knitting workshop by Pam Mahany
Saturday Morning Sept. 8 10:00
Entrelac is a series of building blocks, one row leaning right and one leaning left. It's started with a straight cast-on, then a row of triangles for a foundation. Then alternating rows, starting with an intial triangle, then rectangles, and ending with a row of triangles. It is most easily done with short rows - increasing rather than decreasing short rows. Entrelac is wonderful with self striping yarn like Noro or Toas. You will knit a small sample to learn the technique. This is not for beginners but it is not as difficult as it looks. You will need to bring # 7 or 8 needles and one ball of Kuryon or Silk Garden or several colors of worsted yarn.
