Pearls on the Pulse
I completed this beaded cuff today. I've had these size 8 beads threaded on some extra Jitterbug yarn as my first beaded cuff attempt did not work out. I used 2.5 mm Brittany birch dpns and worked three repeats of the 14 row pattern over 25 sts. I wish I had used 2.75 mm needles to make the cuff a little bigger, but it is close enough as it is. A fourth repeat would have been too long. The grafting was quite a challenge and seemed to take nearly as long as knitting the cuff. This project was a pleasant diversion from sock knitting. I realize I will only be knitting socks once Sock Wars III starts on May 9.

Very pretty!
