Use for holiday tree trimming, as a sachet filled with herbal mixtures or potpourri, as a gift box decoration, etc. This is a good starter project if you've been wanting to try knitting with beads. I bet you won't be able to make just one!
Approximately 4 inches long overall. 20 yards fingering weight yarn, size 8/0 seed beads, optional jingle bell. Size US 2 / 2.75 mm needles suggested.

All these colorfully beaded Mini Socks were knitted by Nancy. Aren't they adorable? |

Jean Moss featured "Bells On My Toes Mini Holiday Sock" as one of top five knitted Christmas gifts in her Q&A column in the December 2008 issue of UK magazine Knitting. Not having a high resolution photo for Jean, and not even having a sample model to photograph (since these make such great little gifts to give away), I quickly made one (takes hardly any time, yeah!), and voila I have a new photo to share. Enjoy! |
