some time back there in the past, i put up photos of entrelac pieces i'd knitted. they've been aging along with a couple of pieces of mitered square fabric, and i took them to BSG with me to get suggestions from Lori for what might be a good way to use them. she mentioned a scarf/shawl by Katherine Alexander in Interweave Press' "Scarf Style", and i looked at it and saw possibilities for this fabric. so, i picked up stitches at one end of one of the entrelac pieces and got started. there is a quite abundant stash of these yarns, from several sources (Lori, Lynne, me and maybe others). this is how it looks now, complete with abundant yarn ends which will have to be dealt with sooner or later. when it gets to the length i like, i'll probably put some kind of border on the sides, maybe 2" or so wide. i'm thinking a kind of varigated solid might be nice, but we'll see.....
