Entrelac Knitting - Surface Design with Yarn - Kathryn Alexander - DVD
What is entrelac?
Traditionally, this deceptively simple knitting technique creates small shapes using short row techniques that build upon each other. The overall effect often looks like basketweave as the shapes lean to the right or left and appear to be interlocking.
Kathryn Alexander has spent her career exploring entrelac and has taken the medium in so many directions—not only left and right, but up and out, down and around, swirling, whirling, and every-which-way. She finds that the possibilities with entrelac are endless and the surfaces she creates are whimsical and enchanting.
Learn Kathryn's tips and techniques with her video workshop Entrelac Knitting: Surface Design with Yarn. A fun way to use your handspun, you'll add depth and intrigue to your knitted masterpieces.
