Christmas yarnfall ? Yes , of course ! Where there is no snowfall , there is a yarnfall !! :)
I am in my piling-up frenzy mode , adding yarns and more yarns to my stock . I received my latest stock of crochet threads through an online order from Pradhan stores . Thanks to Rajeswari from diapermum who introduced me to this store and made me a yarn addict ! :)
I am working (telling lies? Yes , to myself) on my WIPs :) Crochet table cloth seems to be taking ages to complete . I have also attempted my first beaded crochet project too . But first , let me welcome my new friends .

I enjoyed all the blogs very much and they have lot of ideas to try for . I would like to make a special mention about Katia Missau - I was bowled over by her crochet jewellery; and Nima who is doing needlework since her childhood days .
I always wanted to use tiny beads in crochet . Here I am trying to use seed beads with size 20 Anchor red heart crochet cotton.
There is no size mentioned for these knitting cottons neither does the store owner is sure about .
This is what I deduced after trying each of these . Correct me, if I am wrong .
Red Rose knitting cotton : size 10
Anchor knitting cotton : size 5
Laura knitting cotton : size 3
Enjoy your weekend !

I found Laura knitting yarn too thick. My favourite so far are Anchor threads :)

Lovely collection! must remind self to order some more!! What are you planning to do with all the collection?? The beaded crochet looks very dainty and elegant. I tried it once but somehow stopped, it does look very pretty in your blue doily/motif :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful collection of yarns. The beads look really pretty on the doily, I'll look forward to seeing it finished :)
ReplyDeleteThe colorful yarns are a feast for the eyes :-). And I like how the beads make the doily so bright and festive!

Preeti, thank you for the mention. I have posted an easy way to thread seed beads to the crochet thread...try that if you haven't...I loved your blue thread and golden bead project...it is already looking gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteGolden beads and royal blue look nice together, giving a royal look! Even I am not sure about the sizes of these threads. But I am so glad I found this online store. These threads are not easily available. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful! And I love the color :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful assortment of colors! I love how you work the beads into the crochet.
ReplyDeleteThe the beads added!
