Finally back in stock! Whew! This one took a while longer than expected -- but well worth the wait. :-)
We are thrilled and delighted to be able to offer the full kit for Sivia's marvelous Heart to Heart Beaded Scarf, complete with silver lined megatamas and a 100% cashmere lace weight yarn, in your choice of two colors, a soft pink and a delightful sky blue!
And yes, you read that right -- we were able to find a wonderful and high-quality pure cashmere that is perfect for this design -- at a phenomenal price! And so we pass this wonder on to you.
This is a lovely 100% Pure Mongolian Cashmere with an incomparable silky soft texture in a 2-ply, with each two ounce skein giving 400 yards, exactly like the original cashmere that Sivia used. The nicest thing about cashmere is that it is very warm, yet very light and soft. It gets softer as you wash it.
Here is data on the design itself:
Sivia writes, " This stunning crescent shaped scarf, fetchingly strung with beaded hearts, is as sweet as pie!
"The scarf consists of the heart border, an easy garter stitch body, and a tubular edging, and is worked sideways from one narrow point to the other."
And we have gotten in two beautifully soft colors --choose between a delicious baby pink or a delicate sky blue -- see the photos below.
In each kit will be be pattern, one skein of the cashmere (400 yards) and a container with at least the needed 174 of the 4mm silver lined megatamas, which are exactly the beads that Svia used in her original.
The beads are placed with the crochet hook method throughout, so don't forget this marvelous tool if you need it (it is not included in the kit)-- we generally carry a good selection on our "hooks & needles" web page of these ultra-thin crochet hooks. You want one about 0.6mm (email me if you have any trouble finding them).
The original used size 3 US (3.25mm needles)(also not included in the kit) -- just so you have a good starting point. Everything else that you will need is included.
Don't forget to elect the color you wish from the drop-down menu before you check out.
A stunning knit -- delicious to make, wonderful to wear.
