Notions:
- Seed beads in a size appropriate to yarn (size 6/0 or 8/0 for fingering weight)
- Yarn needle
- Small crochet hook or other tool to apply beads
- Kitchen or jewelry scale (optional)
To knit this shawl, you need to know how to:
- knit and purl,
- work knit front and back (kfb) and knit front/back/front (kfbf) increases,
- work a double decrease (sk2p), and
- place a bead on a stitch.
This shawl is intended to be knit until you are almost out of yarn or are happy with the size. A kitchen or jeweler’s scale can be helpful if you are trying to maximize your yarn usage.
