Entrelac is fun and fascinating! It is all about rectangles and triangles that are knit in a manner that creates a fabric that looks woven. It is a unique method of creating knitted fabric. It is also one of the few techniques when knowing how to knit backwards is advantageous. Students will learn and practice several units of Entrelac while knitting a Square (call it a potholder) and learning to knit backwards.

· Knit and purl with ease
