Circulate

Circulate is my latest beaded design that I am thrilled about.  It is a garter stitch lace moebius wrap with a really fun attached beaded i-cord. You will use and conquer many knitting skills while working this pattern, including chart reading (the chart is also written out ), provisional cast-on, knitting with beads, grafting, and a beaded attached i-cord.  The pattern includes two sizes, a Small/Medium and a Medium/Large, since we don't all have the same width shoulders.  I like mine to fit snugly on my torso.
