Item# 46

Mix-and-match ensemble of hat, crew socks and fingerless mittens to knit in two colors of DK weight yarn of your choice and size 6/0 seed beads.

Although the colorwork might appear involved, the slip-stitch color knitting is simple because you only need to handle one yarn color at a time. The beads give an added depth of color and look of complexity to an otherwise simple beaded knitting technique.

Here is a beautiful small lace piece in the shape of a leaf of the majestic Oak tree. This project is rated as "mindful knitting", i.e. it will take careful attention as there is little repetitiveness to the rows. But otherwise the knitter familiar with basic lace knitting can expect to have a fun knit with this pattern (and probably will not want to stop at making just one). We've seen these oak leaf medallions used in a variety of ways: small doilies, coasters, tasseled bookmarks, fall holiday decorations and appliqué embellishments. For what will you use yours?

You'll get the materials you need to make one Bitty Beady Christmas Tree. NOTE: PATTERN NOT INCLUDED. Please purchase downloadable e-Pattern separately.

Your choice of yarn and bead colors.
A floss threader is included if you want to string your own beads OR you can purchase the upgrade option to get the beads already strung on the yarn ready to start knitting right away!

This yarn pak includes a 600 yard center-pull ball of Jaggerspun Zephyr wool/silk in your choice of colors. The center-pull ball is cradled in a squishy mesh sleeve that helps keep it tamed while you knit. Afterwards, you can use the mesh sleeve when washing small delicate items or keeping socks sorted.

This yarn is a favorite for lacy scarves and shawls. Also for Luxury Lace Socks as shown. (e-pattern available separately)

Alternating light and dark accent beads add sparkle and stylish class to the scultped lace silhouette of this wide fashion scarf or shoulder stole.

High quality Japanese glass seed beads (a.k.a. round rocailles) by Miyuki in size 11/0 (2 mm diameter). Use this size bead for stringing on lace weight yarns and fine threads like size 8 perle cotton, size 10 crochet thread, and size 5/2 tencel thread or finer.

Beads are packaged in clear zip-top bags for easy handling; no tubes to roll around or tops popping off and spilling beads. Approximately 1550 - 1650 per 15g bag unless otherwise noted (mixes come in smaller 12g bags).
