STITCH GLOSSARY
P-B
Purl, pushing a bead into the stitch as it is made.
K1tbl Knit one through back loop.
K1tbl-B
K1tbl, pushing a bead into the stitch as it is
made.
K2togtbl
K2 together through back loop.
SPP
Sl 1 purlwise, p1, psso.
SKPtbl
Sl 1, k1tbl, psso.
NOTE
Begin scarf at center, work in k2, p2 rib and
bead pat. Then pick up sts at the center of the
scarf and repeat the process in the opposite
direction.
BEAD KNITTING
The number in parentheses, following the row
number, is how many beads are needed for the
row. Slide that number of beads up near your
knitting before beginning each row. About
every four rows, it will be necessary to slide the
remaining beads away from the knitting to have
enough yarn to knit with. To do this, keep the
skein in a basket and slide about 4 to 6"/10 to
15cm of beads at a time along the yarn, until
there is about 4 feet of yarn without beads
(except those for the current row) near your
knitting. It is important to keep your tension
tight when bead knitting, so that you can slide
the bead into the stitch as it is made.
SCARF
Cast on 50 sts.
Row 1 *K2, p2; rep from * to end.
Row 2 *K2, p2; rep from * to end. Rep last 2
rows for rib until scarf measures 17≤"/44.5cm,
end with a WS row. Thread the beading needle
with a 10"/25.5cm strand of pearl cotton and tie
to the end of a new skein of yarn. Be sure to tie
the thread around the yarn, so the yarn is sim-
ply folded in half, not knotted, or the beads
won’t slip onto the yarn. String the large beads
onto the yarn to measure seven feet or 722
beads. Attach the bead strung yarn to the knit-
ting and work the pattern as foll:

Weave in ends.
With a new skein of yarn, pick up 50 sts along
the first row of knitting and rep the
17≤"/44.5cm of rib pat and the bead knitted
pat, so that the cast-on row becomes the center
seam of the scarf. Block the scarf so the edges
lay flat and the ribbing is almost as wide as the
beaded area.
Fringe
Using the pearl cotton and beading needle,
attach the pearl cotton at one edge of the "V" of
scarf. String 37 small beads, one large bead,
and one small bead. Skipping the last bead
strung, pass the needle back through the large
bead and the 37 small beads. Make a small knot
through the edge of the scarf and bury the pearl
cotton in the yarn, coming out about µ"/.5cm
away along scarf edge. Make a small knot and
rep the process all along scarf edge. Finish
opposite end of scarf in same way.
