Welcome to the Wearable Art Emporium!
For those of you who know me from my classes, welcome back. To those who don’t…just a little bit about who I am. I have had a love affair with fiber since I was a very young girl. I began to knit and crochet at an early age and when I was about 12 years old, I began incorporating beads into my work and the result was my ongoing love of bead crochet.
Much to my dismay, I couldn’t find any books that taught me how to change yarn in the middle of a project, so that became my first challenge. I also found a lack of patterns, and since I’m a big fan of playing with colors in my work, as well as dimensionality, I start designing the patterns that would work best for the pieces I wanted to design. The result was my book, Bead Crochet Jewelry and the many articles I wrote for Bead and Button Magazine. I also began teaching classes, at which many of my students fell in love with the patterns, and began asking for more! So, I designed a multitude of patterns, and am now offering them to you – new customers and returnees!
I will be posting more new patterns routinely along with a limited number of kits, and instructions for some of my techniques for changing yarn and the invisible join. .
Although patterns are for bracelets and bangles, you may want to experiment with turning them into necklaces (just keep going), or lariats, etc. Blend more than one pattern into a piece if you like.
And please, feel free to email me at WearableArtEmporium [!at] gmail.com with any special requests for patterns you would like to see designed, and I will try to honor those requests.
I hope you love creating and wearing the jewelry you create using my patterns. Please visit us often.

4 out of 5 starsI followed the instructions to set the colors on the yarn & all was well until I followed up with the baking soda bath. Foaming like crazy, MAJOR color loss. I resoaked the yarn in another vinegar bath & the running seems to have stopped but of course the yarns are paler. Any comments on what went wrong? Perhaps rinsing in plain water after the acid bath would be better?

5 out of 5 starsPattern seems very clear and easy to understand, with both written instructions and chart. I’m anxious to get started on this gorgeous shawl.

5 out of 5 starsSo far so good. I really like the pattern! I did need to adjust the cotton perle from 20 to 30, because after starting it I found there was too much showing from under the beads. I also switched hooks down from the suggested 1.40 to a 1.30, but in the future I think I would go even smaller.

Patterns that I designed so you can make
I have always designed all the items, be they knit, or beaded, that I make. I wanted to make those designs available to whomever wanted them. As a result, I opened this Etsy shop. Most of what I sell here are patterns, for both knit wear and for bead crochet.
