Notes

Doing an all over lace version. Beads are Miyuki TR 5 1804, silverlined smokey amethyst.

Changed garter tab to cast on 3 and knit 7 rows = 9 stitches. Knit four rows of stockinette after setup row = 23 stitches. Continue with row 7 of chart A.

Change to 4.5mm needle for third time Chart B. Work another half of of chart C after three times.

Doing 2/4 picots.

This is a DO NOT imitate, unless you have more yarn than I did! I used ALL of my yarn and was only able to finish because I skipped the picots for the last 30 stitches or so…
