This is a great beaded lace shawl, with cables along the top edge for added texture. You will use 946 6/0 glass beads and the beads are hooked on with a little crochet hook.

The Zauberball 100 is lovely to work with - gorgeous colors, great texture. The lace is not too difficult, as lace goes, with a short repeat.

I also made another in Malabrigo Sock, using metallic gold beads and another from fabulous madelinetosh Tosh Merino Light in Molly Ringwald. I used beads with a pearl-like sheen and added mother-of-pearl buttons in the center of each large lace section. I used needle and thread to add buttons….gorgeous!

Enjoy!
