Minerva is an entrelac cowl or scarf, knit flat. Why knit a round cowl flat? To learn all the elements you need to know for any entrelac project, and to avoid a huge game of yarn chicken on a long scarf or loop cowl knit from the long edge! Entrelac looks like it�s woven, but it�s just a lot of squares and triangles, knit one at a time. You�ll want to knit just one more square. Choose your length: short or long cowl, or long scarf.
