"Bead Knitted Bags" features the historically rich technique of bead knitting. This is a method of knitting beads directly into stitches to create a dense but supple tapestry-like fabric in the style of vintage antique beaded bags. With detailed instruction and sequenced illustrations, the author provides a clear, step-by-step guide to the craft, complemented by 20 video tutorials on the accompanying DVD. Each of the 10 projects in the book contains a materials list, detailed knitting instructions and colour-coded graphs of the entire pattern or a repeating motif. Each project has a unique strap, closure, or edging and the author provides finishing suggestions and helpful hints throughout the book, making it an ideal introduction to this exciting and unusual craft.
