An Entrelac Bag is Knit Of Lion Brand Yarn

The weather yesterday was extremely hot, everyone feels tired but it is quite cool and comfortable today. It's different to the heat of a sunny day. This morning, I have finished a entrelac bag and now, I got myself some more free time to blogging

This entrelac bag is knit of lion brand yarn. (It is still missing a strap ^^').I especially love Lion Brand Yarn because it's so supremely soft and easy to knit, good in quality, various in colours and reasonable in price.

You can see topic to understand more clearly about entrelac knitting patterns and learn how to knit entrelac with video. Here are the instructions to complete a bag knitting. I hope there is no mistake
