The example to right above is knitted in Sterling Silk and Silver by Kraemer Yarns in color natural; the beads are Miyuki silver-lined clear crystal. Knitted in the fingering weight yarn (rather than a lighter weight lace yarn), this relatively wide scarf looks and feels more like a narrow shoulder stole. This sample in solid color is an example of choosing beads for a tone-on-tone look, whereas the solid color sample above in the camel color used beads in a contrasting color.
Also, you can download the sample cover page below to see this scarf knitted in Mountain Colors Winter Lace Junior, color Crazy Woman.
I think when an artist creates a beautiful thing that brings joy to someone, that artist should be acknowledged. I am an amateur knitter who is having a very satisfying and rewarding experience with your Beaded Lace Scarf II pattern. It is beautiful; and happily, easy to follow. Thank you very much.
Thanks to your fantastic pattern "Beaded Lace Scarf II" I've completed my first beaded knitting project. I had taken a bead-knitting class at my local yarn store but I never got around to doing anything with beads until I purchased your pattern...Your pattern instructions are foolproof. You provide more than enough information, hints, tips, etc. to make a project succeed. Count me as a very satisfied customer who looks forward to purchasing more of your patterns.
