The Knit Entrelac Workshop with Creativebug

Through the past two parts of my workshop you have learned the basics of knitted entrelac making a rectangular shawl. You have also learned how to do entrelac in the round with a cowl. In this section of the workshop you will learn how to shape your entrelac making a hat.

Now that you’re comfortable knitting entrelac in the round and working in tiers, learn how to shape entrelac to make a graphic hat. This project can be made in many sizes, and by playing with color, you can make your hat bright and bold or subtle and soft. No need to add a pompom to this hat – the shaping creates a beautiful mosaic-like pattern at the top.

Knit Entrelac Hat Yarn Choice for Patterns

Red Heart Soft Yarn

I designed this hat using Red Heart Soft Yarn. With 43 colors to choose from you will be able to find three colors that match together to make this warm hat. Through these three workshops you will have three new winter accessories to keep you warm until spring.

Shaping Knit Entrelac to Make a Hat

We will start from the beginning learning how to work the first color and then how to add the others colors that you selected. You can make the hat in shades of the same color or in three different colors that match together.
