I've been knitting nearly every night for the last two weeks and this is what I've been working on. It's a new Black Sheep Bags design and I talked about it a little bit in my first episode of Stitch-Cast. It's an entrelac bag and I'm knitting it with Kureyon in colorway 170 which I am *loving*!!
The first bag is almost ready for felting, so there may be a picture as soon as Friday. I'm enjoying the entrelac and I'm already thinking of knitting up a second size of this bag. Even though it looks complicated, it really is mindless TV knitting. I'm having fun with this design :)
Ohh, that color is MUCH prettier in entrelac. I used it to knit a Booga bag and it was kinda...well, ew. :)

I can't wait to see the finished product! Entrelac is a lot of fun. I'm working on an entrelac stole and having great time with it.

Looks like that colorway is doing exactly what you wanted to. I love seeing unconventional rainbows come to life.

Oh, Kureyon does such lovely entrelac! That will be wonderful after it's felted.

One of the things I adore about you is your knack for tantilizing tease! ;-) I CANNOT wait for this pattern, I have been itching to try entrelac and somehow I just know this bag will be my 1st adventure in! Wanna share roughly how many balls of Kureyon it will take so I know how many to squirrel away? *S*

I love this bag already!!

Horray horray horray!
Yes, please tell, how many balls does it need? I have my birthday coming up, will I be making a booga bag or an entrelac bag with the yarn $$ hubby will give me? I need to know!!!

Oh how gorgeous! Wish we could've done the shop hop when this one was out! (Heather from the Tigard Knitting Guild Shop Hop, btw)
I guess first I need to actually master this technique, huh? I get horribly confused doing the side triangles.

I can't wait to see the bag! I've been considering an Entrelac felted bag for awhile now, but first I have to get through my Entrelac Lady Eleanor!
