and I'm obsessed and I want one, now....but it is not to be as I have not located the required perle cotton. I've had to resort to mail order from EarthFaire, which is fine, except that I won't have it today and I'm leaving tomorrow. I guess I will need to practice some patience.
The cuff is by Marge Giralte and a visit to her Etsy page will show you lots of different colors.
I'm pretty darn excited, however, tomorrow a.m. I fly to New Jersey for my last teaching engagement of the year. And! I'm taking a class with Jean Powers. So it is likely I wont' be visiting with you tomorrow, but promise to have tales of New York city and classes at Blanches over the weekend.

Knitting is how I gained my bead addiction. My business in England had my team of hand knitters making my designs which I would then put together and embellish with beads. I also knit beads into some pieces....boy could I have used a bead spinner then! It was those trips to a bead store in Covent Garden that got me hooked on the little shiny things.
I love EarthFaire! They have beautiful things.
Wow Marcia, thanks for sharing all those wonderful sites. I'm just starting to knit a scarf (my first time doing the cable stitch), but when it's done... I'm going to make that using cut beads!!! I always liked those beaded bags but a knitted beaded bracelet, even better!
Have a safe flight and a wonderful time in N.Y./ N.J.
I'm looking forward to living vicariously thru you when you write about it.
You know my business name (Sand Fibers) came from my joint addictions to beads and yarn/fabric. sigh. Combining the two like this: danger! :D Lovely bracelets...thank you for sharing the links! Have fun with Jean - I am SOOOO jealous :D
