From Knit and Crochet With Beads When a true, allover Bead Knitting project seems too daunting, think small. After all, good things come in small packages. A floral pattern is interpreted in three ways here. The plaited version is probably the most desirable, but choose the version that jibes with your own visual and knitting preferences. Or try two of the methods on seperate pieces, then seem them together along three sides. Add a strap, maybe a zipper across the top, and create a change purse!
