Half Doll Lady Coraline is dressed by Dot Wells of Devonport.
Dot has done a wonderful job,as this skirt is a very heavy skirt to knit up due to the amount of beads needed.
The pattern is call Monica from Anlaby Designs.
Dot has used bead no.588-RB and teamed it with D.M.C. cotton no.783.
This pattern uses 5 x hanks of beads.
2 x balls of Perle 8 Cotton.
Tip
When knitting a skirt with a large amount of hanks,use a stable table,or even a tray or a large book on your knee to support the weight of the skirt,while you knit.
I like the stable table as the padding beneath the stable table brings the knitting up closer to me.
Or sit at a table and rest the
skirt on table as you knit.
This will take the weight of the skirt off your wrist's and hands.
Also helping to keep your needles from bending due to the weight of the skirt.
