This pattern is a warm-up for my winter 2012 SugarPlumFairy group. It can be made any size and with any lace weight yarn. It requires about 18 inches of strung 8/0 beads for every 400 yards of yarn you use. 8/0 beads are suggested but you can use other types too. Larger beads requires more (from a linear perspective) and smaller beads fewer! The beads are pre-strung. 400 yards gets a scarf and 800 yards more of a stole. The finished shape is a very elongated triangle. For details about joining the winter project, please follow the link. The pattern will be available as a down load once the winter group is complete (Spring 2012.)
