After mastering the art of wire-knitting, I decided to spice things up with my second effort and add FIVE! GLASS! BEADS! into the equation. Because I’m a total bad-ass like that.

Again, yet another Xmas present for the sibling, who - in recent months - has decided that black, grey and industrial gunmetal are her favorite colors. Oh, youth.

Strung on hemp cording, because, in addition to being a total bad-ass, I’m also a dirty hippie.

(Oh, and since it was asked: I cast on fifteen stitches using Size 6 (US) needles and knit in stockinette until it looked rectangular. The bead placement was entirely random.)
