z.Beading Circles Round Metal Rings

February 12, 2020 by Helena Asmus Lim Filed Under: Beading Tips Techniques, CREATIONS, Earrings, HOW TO, Necklaces, Pendants

I have trialed a number of methods of beading circles round metal ring before.  Here I am trying not for a tutorial but a compilation of methods I am trialing. There will be a direct link to each tutorial, from various artists.  This way, I have a better chance of looking up how to bead circles using metal ring (or any other type of rings, be they metal or not!).

z. Beaded Weighted Blanket CH0525

February 8, 2020 by Helena Asmus Lim Filed Under: CREATIONS, Home Decor

Crocheted Beaded Weighted Blanket

I first heard of weighted blankets in May 2019.  It is now Nov 2019.  And I have started a big project to make a beaded weighted blanket – double sided.  However as it is taking so long and I have been diverted to other projects so often, I think I better start documenting what I can before I forget what it is I am doing!!!

Note: 8 Feb 2020 … while incomplete, I am publishing this post now but right now (and who knows for how long for!) … it is a Work In Progress.  A slow WIP at that!

z. Beaded Bezel Rivolis – How-to Links

February 7, 2020 by Helena Asmus Lim Filed Under: Beading Tips Techniques, Components, CREATIONS, HOW TO

I don’t have time to write out detailed steps.  So even though this collection of rivolis are not fully identical to the original tutorials on which they were based, I will just show my finished beaded bezel rivolis and a link to the original tutorials for diy referencing.

This sample below uses 14mm Swarovski rivoli.   And it starts with (superduo) x12.

z.Round Short Crochet Cape CH0523 (Crochet Pattern) – pattern listed

September 4, 2019 by Helena Asmus Lim Filed Under: CREATIONS, Crochet Patterns, PATTERNS, Wearables

Pattern for this round, short crochet cape is now available. This cape is worked in overlay crochet.  Perfect for avoiding chilled necks and shoulders when you want to sit up in bed to read or meditate.  But it is so lovely and flattering that it is also ideal to expose it to admiration in town or for a fun outing.

The short cape is easy to wear, much easier than a jacket.

Pattern Available at:

  • at ClearlyHelena: Round Short Crochet Cape CH0523 – Pattern Only
  • at Ravelry: Short Crochet Cape – Pattern

Short Round Crochet Cape CH0523 (pattern only for sale)

You can wear it with collar up or down.
