Beadz 'n Yarn Works


You have arrived at the blogspot of the Knitty_Prof.
I believe we can create art "out of anything."
Crazy about Beads and Yarns?
Obsessive compulsive about Beads and Yarn?
Do you keep adding to your stash, like a magpie lining her nest?

Me too!



In this place I will be posting creative works in Jewelry, knitting, art, and poetry.

Right now, I am excited about the newly published book, ONE SKEIN. I have joined in the One Skein Knit-Along project. Have you heard about that? We'll be knitting projects from the book, or other projects that require only one skein of yarn. It's a great way to use some of the lonely balls of yarn in your stash. Or, you can go buy only one skein of a beautiful new yarn, and then figure out what project you want to do with it.

For my first one-skein project I think I will do a scarf done in modular units using Mountain Colors, Mountain Goat yarn in a lovely pastel of pinks and blues that I just bought. I rolled it into a ball yesterday and will begin my project this weekend. What can you do with only one skein? Why not join the Knit-Along and find out?
