This is my first Garterlac dishcloth. It is also my first attempt at anything resembling enterlac ! I have been wanting to try the technique, but not get too involved in a big project incase it wasn't for me. For the most part I enjoyed making the cloth. Definitely a little tricky to master, but I am happy with the way the first one turned out. Perhaps the next will be even better. This is not knitting for my knitting bag that I take everywhere with me for waiting around times. I do have to concentrate on what I'm doing, but I hope it gets easier with more practice. This is definitely a good pre- enterlac practice drill. Maybe now I may try to make one of those entrelac felted bags that I have been drooling over!
