Back To Beads

It’s been really hot so I’ve been avoiding going out in the garage where it’s twice as hot as inside the house. Finally had to so I could get some orders done.

ChiliPeppers

A string of chili peppers. Red-TurquoiseBeads-JanetAnother set of red and turquoise beads. Used a Lauscha red on this set.

Another Scarf

I wish the weather would cool down a bit so I can get back to making beads. It’s WAY too hot in my garage to sit out there for even a short while. I’ve been staying inside out of the heat – knitting. Have some extra skeins of Rowan’s Kid Silk Haze that I bought trying to match/coordinate colors and ended up with some that didn’t work out. Decided to use the yarn for one skein scarves. Finished this one last week.

Another Knitted Project – Done

This one is called Reverse Psychology by Mindy Ross.

I have yet to figure out a good way to take pictures of shawls and scarves. This one is really long, no way I could take a picture of it laid out. Really fun knit!!

Dangling Conversation

This is a Mindy Ross design. I used a cotton yarn that is actually 4 strands of thread that change to another color after so many yards. This was a fun, easy project.

Organic Beads

These are about as “organic” as I get. I don’t normally do organic well so I usually stay away from it. I have been playing with silver glass more and had some thin stringers sitting on my work bench, thought I’d make a few beads to use them up. Ended up making a set.

Knitting Again

Finally got these two projects blocked and pictures taken.

Foolproof

This is a cowl. Interesting way to knit it. No seams.

Fluff-2nd2Used the Fluff pattern since I wanted a simple design since one yarn was fuzzy and the other a boucle.
