Entrelac is a fun way to play with colour. It’s not strictly speaking a colourwork technique, but rather a construction method that works well with use of colour. Entrelac works well with multicoloured yarns where each colour blends into another over a long length of yarn. This is ideal for when you want to use many colours but would rather have them already put together in a palette that works.
