Explore several nuances of a little known stitch from South Africa in this lariat class. Discover a versatile way of incorporating lampworked beads into your beadwork. Drawing inspiration from a lampworked glass bead by Nancy Tobey, weave three beaded beads that capture its likeness in seed beads and crystal. And better yet - Nancy Tobey will be at Bead Gallery with her collection of beads so you can choose your own bead! Weave a comfortable and conforming lariat that joins the original with its dopplegangers. Expect to attain familiarity and a fondness for a new stitch plus knowledge of transitioning to herringbone stitch. Don't expect to completely finish in class.
