Athena Entrelac Neck Warmer: This pattern uses two 50 gm/128 yard skeins of Crystal Palace Taos. Taos is a variegated yarn with slow color changes. Gauge is approximately 4.25 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch.
Why Athena? Because after going to sleep trying to think of what to make for a friend for Christmas, the idea popped out of my head the next morning, like Athena from the head of Zeus! Here’s the scoop on how it came to be.
I’ve updated the pattern to include an optional bit of flat entrelac at the bottom. Enjoy!
This pattern is available through Ravelry.com; pay is through PayPal and it’s an automatic download. Just click the ”buy now” button and you’ll be guided through the process.
Thank you!
This is so cozy and fresh. I’m looking forward to trying it. It will be my first entrelac, which I’ve put off learning to tackle toe-up socks. I’m wondering if you had to plan for the colors to fall as they did or did you just leave it to fate? Also, this happens to be a great color combination for me, but I don’t see it in Taos unless it’s just a brightly lit “Mineral.” Discontinued perhaps?
