Simple
Beaded Cuffs - #S14
Four easy styles of beaded-garter
cuffs that give you the freedom to explore a myriad of color and bead
placement combinations. The basic knit stitch and an easy beading
technique make these simple and fun for anyone to make.
These cuffs can be worn on your
wrists as mitts, pulse warmers or bracelets, and on ankles as a dress-up
over plain socks. A single cuff even makes a chic holder around your water
bottle, serves as an eye-catching coffee cup cozy, or as a dress-up to any
other place that begs to be cuddled by yarn and glint of beads.
The garter stitch fabric in these
beaded cuffs is stretchy and can accommodate a range of sizes. Adult
medium, 75-100 yards fingering weight yarn per pair, 7-½ stitches/inch
over garter stitch, size U.S. 1-2/2.25-2.75 mm needles suggested, size
8/0 seed beads. Shown in Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock yarn and Miyuki
beads.

Shapely
Sandal Socks - #S05
The bold lines of textured diamonds
play against tweedy multicolors in these socks featuring a delightful
patterned heel. Shapely Sandal Socks provide snuggly warmth even on cool
days in sandals or open-backed slippers.
The tweedy variegation is created by
knitting two strands of fingering weight variegated yarn together as one.
Select the same variegated colorway for each strand, or even choose two
different colorways for variety and fun.
Adult small [medium, large]. 2 strands
of fingering weight yarn are knitted together as one for an equivalent
worsted weight yarn. You will need 175 [210, 245] yards of fingering weight
sock yarn in each of two different variegated yarns (i.e. total of
350 [410, 490] yards). You can either choose two yarns of the same, a
variegated and a compatible solid color yarn, or two different variegated
colors with compatible color palettes. 5-½ stitches per inch over stockinette stitch using two fingering weight yarns held together, size U.S.
4/3.5 mm needle suggested. Charted instructions.
