Sparkly...


November is flying along, so here's my little project. (Does anyone else feel like they have to do smaller project to keep within the time frame of a month? With 2 kids, a dog, husband, and work - knitting falls to the wayside!)

This project was an amalgamation between two projects from two different knitting with wire books. The gauge wire is 28; needles are 3s. The beads are just a mix of golds, silver, and clear. All materials came from the local craft store.

I thought the project was worth the try, although I much prefer working with yarn. You can't beat the feel of it. I also need to work on my camera skills.

For December I am waffling between an intrelac scarf and knitting with fabric (knitting rag rugs, pot holders, etc.). Gotta decide soon!

WOOT!! First knitted wire, beaded bracelet!

Thanks Samantha for the pattern and links! This is my first attempt at wire knitting and something I had been actually avoiding. It hadn't been appealing to me before but I am glad I tried it!
