Choose your yarn and cast on for Brooke Nico’s Wanderlust Shawl. Please bring a US 10 — 47″ circular needle, or size to obtain gauge, stitch markers, and tapestry needle. This is an easy beginner lace project done on larger needles and yarn to make it easy to see your stitches.

Knitted Beads

Topic: Knitted Beads — Terry Gentry
Using the pattern on Ravelry: “Julie”, I will show how to make a knitted bead for a necklace. If you would like to follow along bring #0 knitting needle and a skein of DMC embroidery thread (wrap floss around a bobbin or a small piece of cardboard ready to knit). You can also use fingering weight yarn and #1 needle. After the piece is knitted I will show you how to wrap it around a wooden bead and secure.
