Tyrian Loop, Knitscene Winter 2013

Tyrian Loop is a lace beaded loop that was just published in Knitscene Winter 2013! I'm really happy to be included in this issue along with two of my super designer friends, Dilettant Knits with her lovely pattern, Black Cherry Pullover and Rock & Purl was the featured designer with several patterns, Stereo Mittens, Hi-Fi Pullover, and Victor Shawl!

Here's my own photo of the loop focusing on texture...

And from the Knitscene site...

A bit about the Tyrian Loop:
It comes in two sizes 48 (21 1/2)” circumference and 7 (10)” tall; shown in size 48”
Yarn
Malabrigo Arroyo (100% superwash merino; 335 yd 305 m/100 g): #872 purpuras, 1 skein
Gauge
21 sts and 38 rows = 4” in Geometric Lace patt
Tools
• Size 4 (3.5 mm): 32 (16)” circular (cir) needle
• Size 10 (0.75 mm) steel crochet hook
• Marker (m)
• Tapestry needle
• 180 (112) 4 to 4.5 mm Rocaille beads with silver centers

This loop (or cowl) has a fun geometric lace pattern, uses an i-cord as a foundation and bind-off, and includes beads that add eye-catching pop.

And, just a bit of pride in my pals' work...
