Knit One, Bead Too: Essential Techniques for Knitting with Beads

Judith Durant introduces you to fun techniques that will perk up your knitted items with beautiful beads. Five distinct techniques fully incorporate beads into knitted items rather than simply adding beads as fringe or appliqué. The results are intricate works of art that you'll be proud to wear or give as gifts.
