Bead Detail
Closeup view of the New Year's Shawl showing the beads in a single leaf motif. Beads were pre-strung onto the yarn prior to knitting and "dropped" at the appropriate stitch to form the spines of each leaf motif. The gold beads added a subtle hint of color to this otherwise plain shawl.
Line Up!
When insects got into my navy 100% wool yarn and destroyed several skeins of yarn, I sought complimentary colors to complete this simple pullover. When worn, the stripes on the sleeves align with the stripes on the body of the sweater.
