Now that I finally get how to do tunisian entrelac, I decided to put some Patons Satin Crimson & Snow to use and make a patchwork scarf.
.
.
I used an H hook -- and yes, tucking in those ends did get tedious -- but it made for some mindless handwork while watching tv.
.
The edges curled fiercely until I added the triangular block to the edge. And then after steam blocking it --- oh my. It is one of the softest things.
.
This booklet was key in helping me understand the whole concept of constructing the entrelac blocks.

Oh My Goodness! That is just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to try this but have been afraid it is beyond my abilities. Someday in the future though I will give it a whirl. Yours is just too perfect for words.
ReplyDeleteLove the way that scarf turned out! I've just got to try entrelac crochet sometime in the near future.
ReplyDeletejust beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWOW, looks very involved. Not sure I have the patience for all those ends.
ReplyDeleteLove the look though.
Trying today to visit all the followers on Sandy's Space, don't know if I'll make it; but am trying.

I just tried Entrelac this week, after receiving my "A TO Z" book from Pammy Sue. It was so much fun, but I wasn't sure how to finish off the sides. I was thinking it would make a neat-looking scarf, and VOILA, there it is, in my favorite red and white! AWESOME!!! I'll have to check out out to make the side triangles. Keri
