knittingThere is a scarf pattern that someone posted on their FB page and I picked it up.
I have been wanting to learn Entrelac for some time and this looked like a great simple project to start with. The pattern page included a link to Very Pink where she explains how to make this scarf in simple easy to understand terms.
Yesterday I completed the first pattern repeat for the scarf. It is loose and messy, but I get it! I understand how Entrelac works now!
And to make things even better, I get how to pick up stitches! This means that heel flaps for socks suddenly make sense to me!
I have 5 projects that I want to get done first, but this scarf will be sitting in the sidelines waiting and I have ALL these sock patterns that now do not seem so daunting anymore!
