Whatalottalonelies

My Lonelies jar was doing that overflowing thing again so I sorted out its contents into groups, cleaned and strung them all and now they're in my shop ready for rehoming. All of the beads are first quality - they're just leftovers from sets that weren't quite the right size or whatever, or they're experiments or one-offs.

I've also got some new normal, not-lonely beads to show you.

There's this 'Festive Glow' strand of Luminobeads which are a remake of a set that I made in 2008.

These have cores of CiM Foam encased with Effetre sage green 019, Effetre dark topaz 016 and Effetre medium amethyst 042, decorated with spots in Effetre white 204, and then tumble-etched to a matt finish.

And there's also another floaty quintet, this time in green.

These are CiM Weeping Willow encased with Effetre super clear 006 with decoration in good old Effetre white 204.

All of the beads pictured can be purchased in my shop.

I'm off to continue knitting a sock now. Yes, a sock! It's been a while, hasn't it? I'll show you it over the weekend when I have daylight for taking photos.
