Brentrelac is related to entrelac knitting. Brentrelac units are worked with brioche stitches. As typical for brioche, the shawl is reversible, and the fabric does not curl at the edges.

This pattern is for triangular shawl, started at the lowest tip and worked towards the longest edge. One skein of fingering weight sock yarn will make a smallish shawl, but 3 skeins will be enough to good size wrap-around. Size is easily adjustable.

Any weight yarn can be used to make lighter or heavier shawl, but the needle size will need to be adjusted according to the yarn weight.

Being familiar with both entrelac and brioche knitting is helpful with this pattern. The pattern has no technique tutorials, but has a detailed photo to describe the construction of the shawl. Pattern uses loop cast-on and has picked up stitches.
