This pattern is available as a free Ravelry download

A string of asymmetric beads joined into a circle to make a fluid shape that is fun and somewhat compulsive to play with. You can twist and turn the beads into a flat flower shape or into any number of three dimensional forms.

The beads are made from 4 cm polystyrene balls covered with knitting. The knitting is simple garter stitch and is worked flat. You will need about 25g in total of thin 4 ply yarn for all eight beads.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them,
please consider making a donation to the British Liver Trust where
the money will go to fund research and support the families of
children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my
fundraising page here

Happy Knitting!
