Reversible Undulating Waves
This reversible double-sided lace scarf features beads that graduate in color inside each wave of the lace stitch. The beads are prestrung in a sequence so that they fall in the correct place. You can use just one color bead, if you desire, and it will still be gorgeous!
Sometimes I look back on previous designs and suddenly see how to work them differently—not necessarily better, but maybe more resolved. In this case I turned to my first beaded design, Undulating Waves, and thought about how I could change the stitch to be reversible. Then (because who wants to be boring?), I threaded the beads to create color shifts in each wave. The pattern also includes extensive video tutorials to help you with the stitch!
THERE ARE ALSO KITS FOR REVERSIBLE UNDULATING WAVES!!!!
