TOHO Bead Challenge Participant Lorraine Wolak

Lorraine Wolak
takes on the 2014 TOHO Bead Challenge

Lorraine Wolak was one of the lucky participants in the 2014 TOHO Bead Challenge during the annual Bead & Button Show in Milwaukee.  Each designer was given the same beads and asked to submit their completed designs in their personal style.  Lorraine was clearly up for the challenge, demonstrating here how her intricate beadwork controls the stretch of the #4000 Series lacy yet coarse style wire knit.  The cuffs irregular frilly edge delicately frames the beaded scalloped body design is a truly original and beautiful cuff!  Thank you for choosing to use WireKnitZ as the foundation and for sharing this with us, Lorraine.
