7 Yaks Knitting Needle Gauge on YouTube.

7 Yaks Design has made the big time. (Well it’s a big deal to me anyway.)

My snowflake knitting needle gauge was part of the great package from PhatFiber and they put up a video showing all the neat things people will receive when they order a sample box of their very own!

Here is the video. It is about 10 minutes long, so if you just want to see the review of my snowflake knitting needle gauge just skip ahead to 8:19. But take a look at the whole thing if you have time. Lots of neat stuff from indie crafters.

Beth Grant makes lampwork beads.

Beth Grant demonstrates how she makes decorative glass beads by the lampwork method.

Using a propane torch, she turns different coloured glass rods into multicoloured beads by melting and turning them on a mandrill.

The beads are further decorated with small bits of glass called frit, and then finished in a kiln.

The finished beads are utilised to make jewellery and enhance small items such as pens and paté knives. Beth is based in Orton, Ontario. Recorded during the Hills of Erin studio tour in September 2007.

You can shop the many lampwork (and other) beads at http://www.sevenyaks.etsy.com
