This was a fun use of Lily Sugar’n Cream cotton yarn (color: ‘Batik’).  All knit stitches, with increases and decreases, plus picking up stitches.  I addd the loop so it could be hung, but it really isn’t quite thick enough for a potholder.  Here’s an edge thickness comparison photo:

I think if I can ever find an affordable, long color stripped wool blend yarn, I would like to make myself an entrelac scarf which is pretty much the same concept but with knit stitch.  It’s such a clever use of basic stitches and looks way more complicated than it is.
