ENTRELAC

I have discovered the COOLEST knitting pattern ever. ENTRELAC.
It makes your knitting look like weaved strips, but actually it's just all one peice. I should have taken a picture of the wrong side. Oh well.

HOW COOL IS IT??? I'm obsessed. I started this little sample swatch just to feel out the pattern, but I loved it so much that I kept going, and now I am not entirely sure where I'm going with it. I might try to make it into a backpack somehow. It is just SO awesome. My eventual goal is to make an afghan with the pattern, but that would take many years, so I'm not ready to commit to it, but I'm in love with entrelac.
Mom's socks:
Finished them yesterday. I made a little mistake, I forgot one thing, which makes the leg a little looser than it should be, and they're kind of big on me but my mother has bigger feet than me so hopefully they will fit her. I really love the striping yarn.
IDEAS FOR FUTURE PROJECTS:
--Entrelac hat
--Sock-yarn skirt made up of geometric shapes
--Wedding dress.
