Theresa and Eileen;
Sounds interesting, but if the yarn is coming off a scain, how would you get the bead on the yarn.  I could design something on plastic canvis and transfer it to knitting, oh my!  Letters or a shape sure would be pretty!
This sure is a mistory.

I don't have a pattern, and have onluy thought on it a little not enough to come up with definate ideas on what it would look like or how it would be worked.
