Knit this Oh-So-French pillow using the intriguing ENTRELAC (French for interlace) technique. Pattern can be knit in any yarn and any size. Directions are included on how to make larger or smaller.

Schematic clearly shows sequence of triangles and rectangles. Designed to relieve the intimidation of a knit that looks complicated. Following the clear directions makes the woven appearance easy and fun.

Pillow top can be sewn to a readymade pillow….or knit the back in stockinette stitch and seam three sides then stuff with an insert.

Knit in two colors, as is classic.
Knit in a gradient or ombre, with very little finishing
Knit in one color for a more subtle and elegant effect.

Warning: Knitting entrelac is ADDICTING!
