Tunisian Entrelac in Oakland
Yesterday I left you with the words “while I’m busy retrieving class photos from my camera”. Although I taught six classes in Oakland at the Knit and Crochet Show, I discovered today that I only took pictures during two of them. My only defense is I get so involved in teaching and sharing my students excitement that I forget I even have a camera with me! I know my blog visitors really enjoy the photos so I’ll try to remember to take more pictures. If you are a student in one of my classes, please don’t hesitate to remind me!
Tunisian Entrelac in the Round was one of the classes I DID remember my camera.
I thoroughly enjoy this class. Students start off creating a base for their bowl from traditional crochet, then add Tunisian triangles to start the sides. At this point the project still lies flat in what I call the “starfish phase”. 
Color is so important in our lives, it is always fun for me to see the colorful parade of bowls take shape.
Equally enjoyable is to see my students creativity take flight. One of the students in Oakland decided to work her bowl in Tunisian Knit Stitch. The textural change resulted in a great design element.
I can hardly wait to see the variety of bowls the students at the Orlando Needlework Show will create in November!
Stop by tomorrow for a look at Crochet Illusions.
