Knit from the bottom-up, both in the round and flat, the Bodhi Balaclava is an excellent intro to the entrelac pattern. This pattern was written with scraps in mind! Choose 4 colors that pair well together. I suggest a darker color for the neck and face framing - contrast is not important here. Have fun with your color combos!

Tip: hand-dyed yarn that is dyed half-and-half will give you natural striping, as seen on the second row of the sample.

Video support is provided, and you get a coloring sheet to play with.

I created the perfect lil stickers to pair with your project. You can find them on my website.
