Book on CD - Zulu Meets Swarovski - By Diane Fitzgerald
Enjoy the techniques of the Zulus of South Africa with the bling and sparkle of Swarovski crystals. The effects are amazing! The CD contains instructions for the African Circle Stitch, the Popcorn Stitch, the Laceleaf Chain, the Zulu Ladder, the Flowerette Bracelet, Hexagon Netting, the Zigzag Chain and two new stitches: the Netted Tube and the Butterfly Chain. 42 page pdf. Most of the patterns are way less spiky than the one illustrated on the CD - there are lots of wide, flat crystal bracelets here, some very cool tubular stuff, and even a broad collar.
