Hello Lindy
I think that No 8 beads would mean size 8 seed beads. See the
Pandorian catalogue:

I've put a scan of a few of their size 8 seed beads with a ruler on

Hello Lindy and all on the list,
I although signed up for Mystera Stole 3 but had problems to find
suitable beads in Germany.
No bead shop owner could tell me what the beads No. 8 was. So I
visited several shops with my lace yarn and the crotched hook and
tried beads, bought them and tried a sample at home. Finally I decided
an rocaille beads 4 mm.

Hello Spiders
Susan, that is a wonderful document all about lace knitting! Thank
you very much for posting it for us to see.
I also have joined the Mysterystole3 Knit-a -Long. I am still
waiting for the yarn which was delayed by the floods in England but I
hope is now in the mail to me. I can't wait to start. I have knitted
in many waiting rooms and at hospital bedsides for years and it keeps
me sane! Have recently taken to knitting socks as they are very
portable and don't require much concentration. (Lace pattern socks,
of course!)
Are any other Arachne members knitting this stole?

Now that I finally have gotten my life back (Mom has moved to
assisted living, Gerri well enough to go home) it's time to get on
with things. Having spent most of the last year knitting,(it's easy
to take to doctor appointments or bring to hospital visits) the
mention of the knit stole KAL of course caught my attention. I had
to join it, have been wanting to do knit lace. What a group! There
are 6700+ of us signed up, most are actively knitting away. It's
fun, but also frustrating. It would help a lot if I could count.
It would help more if I could count the row more than once and get
the same number. It *will* work out eventually.
There is a fascinating link I just read, it's a PDF about lace types
and has some patterns. Enjoy!
