Bead Knitted Pendant Bags
by Theresa Williams

Publisher Bag Lady Press
Edition Paperback

Theresa Williams, the BagLady®, has written a series pattern books enabling the beginner to create extraordinary beaded knitted bags in a relatively short amount of time while at the same time enabling the experienced knitter or beader to either create what she has designed or to use her patterns as solid starting points to experiment with and create their own unique designs.
Many of the patterns available to date have been either remakes of particular antiques (where the parts and/or supplies are no longer available) or the more tedious bead knitting approach which necessitates charting and individually stringing thousands of beads.
All of her patterns use readily available materials (Czech glass seed beads on hanks, #8 perle cotton, and currently manufactured metal frames). Most of the bags require only the skill to perform a basic knit stitch with several of the bags requiring the skill to perform an increasing stitch as well.
