Yet another...



....bead-knitted necklace. Hate to bore ya'll, but it's all I have to show at the moment. This is the one that I sent my friend in Indiana for her B-Day with the baby gifts. I am also working on the skull illusion scarf which I'm totally loving, but feel that I'm a week away from finishing. Take care :o)

Knitting in miniature


Not sure whether any of you gals have tried it, but I love to knit in small scale. One of my favs. is to knit these small bead-knitted necklaces. The pic. above is the 1st one that I made & keep as a sample. It was knit with black perle cotton strung with silver-lined crystal seed beads. There are approx. 1100 seed beads in the purse part alone not including the necklace's chain. It was knit using size 0000 knitting needles that are narrower in diameter than a toothpick, & about 6" long. You can find instructions to a similar pattern here.

This second picture is of the turquoise necklace that I finished knitting this week for my mother's B-Day. Have a great night & feel free to ask any questions that you might have.
Peace out, Boop

PS- would Lana please change my sidebar link to my blog to this new address? I don't think I can wait much longer for the Blogger beta to change it over on it's own, lol. Thx. a bunch!

Cable purse



I am working on my blogging, so I am going to post again. I made this cable purse in chunky yarn. It was super easy and quick, the hardest part was lining it-- I had to use the sewing machine, not my specialty. Anyway, I am making several for my children's teachers.
