Pink Beads 3 ply yarn from Ebay approx 60g 450 beads/br> 2.00mm N/A N/A Green Heath 90% wool, 10% nylon To fit UK women's 5.5 16 Dec 2004 21 Dec 2004 None Jacinta

It's a simple sock knit in record time. I strung the beads onto the yarn and knitted away instead of using a crochet hook to attach each bead.





Project Notes

1. I used a 70 stitch cast-on, on 2mm needles. The cuff was done, as Dawn had done hers, using a a 2 stich twist, every 3 row. Pretty and effective too



2. To work around the number of stitches, the beads were set on a 9 x 1 rib. I took the foot down to 66 stitches to give it a more snug fit.
