You will learn how to apply beads as you go to any lace pattern. This scarf pattern “Cathedral Windows” is deceptively easy. I had to stop many times just to feel the fabric against my skin!

Materials List:
You can start with a Habu Bamboo Laceweight Yarn. Pick your yarn ahead of time so that you can shop for beads. You only need about 1/3 - 1/2 of a tube of #6 seed beads - so you can share with a friend. (Legendary Beads, 2725 Santa Rosa Ave. or A Beader’s Dream, 442 Petaluma Blvd.)

#7 Lace Needles (yes, #7), #9 crochet hook, small plastic safety pin ring markers, small black or white rubber ring markers, scissors, pencil and paper, post it notes (large).

OR if bamboo lace weight yarn is too small or fine for your eyes, you may want to use Nature’s Palette lace weight which is a little easier to see. You can use the same #7 needle or go up to #8s.
