Take a Stitch Tuesday 136 and 137 Knotted buttonhole band and Beaded Knotted buttonhole band

I had time....

to make the new stitches - first row is knotted button band

with perle 5 and on top a thick knitting yarn.

The light blue row is a shame - too long legs so it is looking wonky

with the beads - I used perle 8 which is too thin to my taste

- it is not effective.

The third row is made with perle 5 again and with short "legs" and the

beads are sitting in the right place.
