I love knitting with beads! Plus, the other day I found myself between projects so I trolled the house looking for something to knit on. I found the bare start of a beaded bracelet. I made a number of these years ago…but gave them all away. The pattern is Lucy Neatby’s Diamond Beaded Bracelet:
The new one looks much like the old:
Now I have one of my own with more to come! They are a quick knit and fun to wear!!
We went to the fair with our oldest daughter — really fun! She saw a hat hanging in the Creative Activities Building and loved it…so, mama had to knit it! It was easy to find on Ravelry: Beeswax Hat. I had yarn in stash (Madeline Tosh DK) in a perfect gold color.
I admire clever designs and this one truly is. You think the honeycomb is continuing along its merry way, but in reality it becomes the perfect shaping for the crown, which ends in a beautiful flower motif. Lovely!!
Here is the one we saw at the fair. If it’s yours, let me know (I couldn’t see the name!):
Enjoy your Labor Day!!! 🙂
