Flower Power is an entrelac cowl or scarf, knit flat. Why knit a round cowl flat? To learn all the elements you need to know for any entrelac project, and to avoid a huge game of yarn chicken on a long scarf or loop cowl knit from the side edge! Entrelac looks like it’s woven, but it’s just a lot of squares and triangles, knit one at a time. You’ll want to knit just one more square…

I’ve knit the sample with Berroco Wizard. This yarn is a hollow chain that is very light weight, despite the bulky label. I highly recommend it for this airy entrelac piece. One ball will make up to 54”/137 cm in length. Knit to the length you like, for a cowl from 20 to 54”, or a 54” scarf.

If you’re knitting with a denser yarn, you may need an extra ball to get the yardage you need for a long cowl or scarf.
