Say "I'm thinking of you" with a hand-knit hat of lace hearts. Thinking of You Too Hat reflects the bonds of friendship symbolized in HeartString's signature stitch design of cascading interlocked lace hearts. A portion of sales is donated to cancer research.

Knitted with red yarn, these simple yet fascinating socks alternate blue and white beads in a simple knit and purl pattern. The stripes of beads in the cuff suggest the U.S. flag proudly waving in the breeze.

Complete kit includes A175 Patriotic Bead Striped Socks pattern, 2 skeins Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock yarn (total of 430 yards - 4 oz/114g), Miyuki glass beads in blue and white, collapsing eye nylon floss threader for stringing beads, and clear drawstring bag.

This ornate cross is knitted flat as a wide lace strip of just 4 rows, then shaped using an interesting seamless construction. Instructions are provided for making with or without beads. The Lace Cross can be used as a bookmark, communion or Easter gift, mounted and framed, or a thoughtful Christian token of friendship.

This crescent-shaped shawl begins with a strip of lace edging worked on only 19 to 23 sts with an 8-row repeat. The cabled lace stitch pattern suggests the slightly oblong shape and seeds of the loganberry. The short-rowed body of the shawl is an easy, very lacy one-row stitch pattern that works up in a jiffy.

Sparkly beads glisten like raindrops, greeting the awakening of Spring's first leaves.

Includes 30g size 6/0 seed beads in color choice plus 2-ounce/215 yards skein Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock in color Forest, a hand-dyed soft and durable fingering weight yarn in 80% superwash wool/20% nylon yarn. Green-lined Crystal AB shown right in main photo; Ice Blue-lined Crystal AB are to left. NOTE: PATTERN NOT INCLUDED. Please purchase downloadable e-Pattern separately.

Attention: Scarf photo on sample pattern cover page was knitted in a hand spun yarn and therefore is different than the yarn included with this supplies pak. Please hover over the first 2 thumbnail pictures for knitted sample showing how the Forest hand-dyed yarn included in this Supplies Pak works up.

This shawl is knit in one of those lovely laces based on the Shetland feather and fan stitch. There is so much movement and interest in the pattern that it may look more difficult to do than it really is. Starting at the tip of the shawl and increasing to whatever width you want, it becomes a lovely fan-shaped neck scarf, shoulder wrap, or full-size shawl. The bound-off long edge can be finished in your choice of dramatic points or graceful scallops.
