From the book: “One of the most exciting aspects of bead crochet is the possibility for texture and movement. I like my pieces to look organic—as though they have grown from nature, but without using “natural” shapes like flowers and leaves. We have made countless variations of this lariat, experimenting with length, proportion, and different bead shapes. My lariats are usually muted in tone and matte in texture; Dana’s tend to be brighter and blingier.”
