Companion reference books are a great way to keep crafting tips and techniques right at your fingertips. Whether you can't remember a cast-on method, need help when your fiber won't draft, or even want to add a bead to your project, the companion guides offer fundamental basics to advanced resources for your crafting needs.

Indulge yourself with easy elegance. This Supplies Pak contains enough mohair/wool yarn and beads in your choice of color combo to make a pair of Easy Elegance Mitts up through size extra large. When knitted, the beads sparkle amidst the soft halo of the brushed mohair.

Includes 2 - 50g/85 yd balls of Heirloom Aristocrat 12 mohair/merino yarn, small spool of tencel thread in coordinating color for supplemental beading thread, 15g pak of size 8/0 beads, and collapsing eye nylon needle to string beads. NOTE: PATTERN NOT INCLUDED. Please purchase downloadable e-Pattern separately.

Note: Colors are running out fast. You might want to add a "Note to seller" on your PayPal payment to let me know if you have a 2nd or 3rd choice. I am filling requests as received. First come, first served. Please use the remaining quantities as a guideline only for those colors getting really low. I will try to keep the listing as up-to-date as possible.

Beaded Winter Wonderland Socks are reminiscent of a winter scene. There are beaded stylized Norwegian snowflakes, snowdrifts, pine trees, and lightly fallen snow. The cuff is sideways knitted in garter stitch; the remainder of sock is knitted in the round.

This kit includes

• printed pattern instructions
• all the high quality yarns and beads you need to knit a pair of Beaded Winter Wonderland Socks:
  • top quality 80% superwash wool 20% nylon fingering weight sock yarn in color natural - enough to make up to the largest size (woman's shoe size US 12)
  • kid mohair yarn for the "snow" accent yarn
• silver-lined crystal seed beads for the stylized Norwegian snowflake and snow drifts
• beads in choice of 4 color schemes for the beaded trees:
• a nylon collapsing eye 'needle' to help you easily string the beads onto the yarn
• a clear drawstring bag to protect your luxury yarns and beads, and for carrying other small knitting projects later.

The beads are the Miyuki brand, manufactured in Japan, with consistently high quality that won't abrade the thread and the finish will not rub off.

Let this decorative woven dish towel find its way into your kitchen. Linen is special in a practical way. The naturally anti-bacterial fibers dry quickly, resist mildew and keep germs at bay. Approx 20" x 28".

Knitted with red yarn, these simple yet fascinating socks alternate blue and white beads in a simple knit and purl pattern. The stripes of beads in the cuff suggest the U.S. flag proudly waving in the breeze.

Supplies pan includes 2 skeins Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock yarn (total of 430 yards - 4 oz/114g), Miyuki glass beads in blue and white, collapsing eye nylon floss threader for stringing beads, and clear drawstring bag. NOTE: PATTERN NOT INCLUDED. Please purchase downloadable e-Pattern separately.

Make a colorful string bag for your next eco-friendly shopping trip. A bag that scrunches down to next to nothing until needed; then expands to accommodate more fiber stash purchases or whatever. It's a great bag to take to the beach or poolside, too!
