This is not my idea, bracelet designed by Lisa Olson Tune. It's a great design to try herringbone stitch. I was used other materials and modified the clasp. I love made beadwoven clasps like a loop and a button or a loop and a toggle.

beadwoven ring with Swarovski rivoli
I have read in different articles that beadwoven rings are very convenient for wearing. This my first ring with rivoli Swarovski. I wish to test it, how much it is strong and wearable. And this ring really is very pleasant, don't want to put it off from a finger. It does not press, flexible, easily to put on and off from finger, almost it is not felt on a hand. I'm happy with this ring.
Used Swarovski rivoli 14 mm, Toho 11/o and 15/o. Size of ring is 15.5 (I hoped get the size 16, but I did a mistake in weave, so I'm wearing it on a little finger now).

organize your knittings and crochetings
Photo by KnitterBag
Many thanks to Margit K. :) She has given me a reference to fantastic source: Ravelry.com. It's an ideal place for those who likes to knit or crochet. What there is remarkable? When I something knit, necessarily I do calculations, sketches, I write down the name and a thickness of a yarn, colour number (on a case if the yarn will not suffice), the name of schemes and sources. In the course of work any cunnings are born, which should be written down to take advantage of them in the future. All these notes exist at my house on the torn off leaflets, in any writing-books and on labels from a yarn which are constantly lost. And now I know that there is a useful site and all notes can be stored in one place :)
The personal page on Ravelry shares on tabs: projects (current projects - what you knit, what yarn use, what scheme, how many it is already executed and so forth, + the finished projects), something of warehouse type (it is possible to note available yarns and needles-hooks at your home), plans (what you are going to knit in the future, what date to whom, from what yarn and so forth), library (your personal schemes and books) and much more. Besides it it is possible to talk with other peoples in forums, to be connected to various groups, to exchange experience. All who like to knit or crochet, I invite to join and find me on the great source of Ravelry :)

stitch markers and holder, 2
It's update for my yesterday posting. I added a pin to stitch marker holder. So the Heart Marker Holder can be used as a shawl pin or a brooch.
Simple and cute :)

stitch markers and holder
Fot continuation of my project I need Stitch Markers. I never made them before, so I think that the stitch markers should be small, appreciable, bright and light. I used silver plated copper wire and small (4 mm) acrylic beads in red and green. Here are 10 stitch markers I made. Then I needed something to hold them together, on a case when I do not use them. This gently curving heart keep my stitch markers together and safe:
It's cute, isn't it? :) Wish happy Valentine's Day! :D
