Comments: I forgot how much fun these are to make. I finished knitting it February 10, 2014. Usually it takes just a few hours for me to knit one of these, but I was knitting along with a class I was teaching on the subject.

For the chain, I used size 11 Japanese seed beads in black, and the leftover Czech beads from the bag. I also used an assortment of glass and sterling silver beads for embellishment. Stitch used on the chain was netting.

I will enjoy wearing this.
Important news: I am going offline for a couple weeks. We're taking a trip to Washington D.C. and Rhode Island with my brother-in-law and his family. I will get to see my daughter Sarah and my son-in-law Frank. I am very excited. You'll hear from me again mid April.
Live long and prosper. \\//
It is gorgeous!!! I love the black and the dark colored beads. Its really lovely. Love the embellishments too! 0000 needles - eekk!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! And have a great trip! Don't miss the C&O Canal--in the '50's, they were talking about turning it into a freeway till a member of the Supreme Court challenged all who were saying that to walk the entire length with him. Very few succeeded, many came for small sections of the walk, but the end result is that it got made into a national park instead. (It was near my home growing up, I miss it.)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous purse! Nicely done.
