KNITTING...

the never ending cuff.

Elann has this yarn on sale again. The colour is raspberry. In the list of compatible patterns is this beaded wristlet pattern.
I see these worn with denim. They'd have fitted into a Victorian lady's wardrobe too ! I think the sculptural twisted stitches and the beads give them a Rennaissance look as well.
I have 300+ beads to string. I am well aware of the method of adding beads with a crochet hook as you knit. I've even used it a few times. Totally unsuitable for this pattern. I might explain why in my next post.

I had a fabulous late birthday present [the best sort ! I strongly believe in extending the festivities] from Thomas.
