A beaded rose can hide a hole If you discover one day that a moth, stain, or ciga- rette has eaten a hole in your favorite sweater, don't toss the sweater in the trash. Instead, consider covering the hole with a beautiful beaded rose. Even if repairs aren't in order, a beaded rose will work wonders on a sweat- er. It adds an elegant, ex- pensive touch that makes any article of clothing extra -special The rose requires noth- ing more than tiny beads, a skinny needle and sewing thread. An embroidery hoop is helpful but not es- sential All supples are generally available at craft, sewing, and special bead shops found in many cities. If you check your Yellow Pages, you're sure to find a bead source with ease. Here are directions for the beaded rose: PREPARATION: 1. Baste a samll piece of chif- fon, net or other light- weight fabric under the holes, if any, on your sweater. 2. Slide sweater into the embroidery hoop. Keep sweater taut, but do not stretch it. Otherwise, the sweater will get dis- torted when the loop is re- moved. ROSE CENTER: 1. Lightly draw a circle with pencil or tailor's chalk. 2. Slide four beads onto the needle. Stitch across the circle. 3. Stitch another line of beads across the circle, crossing over the previous line. 4. Repeat step three until you have a pretty cluster of beads for the center of the rose (a). INNER PETALS: 1. Lightly draw four petals around the center. 2. Slide three to five beads onto the needle, depending upon the length of your petals. Use one more bead than needed to cover the length of the petals. The result will be gently curving, rather than flat, petals. 3. Stitch lines of beads from rose center to petal edges. 4. Following step three, fill in all inner petals with beads (b). OUTER PETALS: (Op- tional): 1. If a large rose is desired, lightly draw extra Petals around the inner petals. 2. Using the same or contrasting colors of beads, fill in the outer petals with lines of beads. VARIATIONS: 1. Add extra roses as desired. Take care, however, not to add so many that you'll weigh the sweater down. 2. Add lines of beads at bor- ders, sleeves, neckline and hem as desired. 0 s s W 0 R 23. 24. $ 29. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 40. 41. 42. 46. 47. 48. 49. "Operator": hyph. cad.

Craft tal (1 By Louisa Rush Well now that the Christ- mas and New Year festivi- ties are all over and the household is back to a nor- mal routine, it's time to think seriously on how you can utilize the balance of the winter evenings. In many parts of the country there is still a good two to three months of winter to endure and not many of us can af- ford to escape to warmer climes these days. I myself use this time of year to finish all the items which were started and for some reason or the other, never finished. Perhaps it was an idea -for my maga- zine, or something I started to show someone how -to -do - it, and they lost interest. Whatever the reason was, I get out these "skeletons" and proceed to finish them. You've no idea what a sense of self satisfaction this gives you! As one lady has written. wool or yarn can be very pricey these days and she wanted to know if a garment which was too small now for her daughter could be un- ravelled and the wool recycled. This is possible and cer- tainly most advisable especially if your garment has seen very little wear. I do not advise washing the garment, rather wait until the wool is in skeins. First, you will have to carefully unpick the seams, and by this I mean unpick stitch by stitch, rather than snip a stitch of the knitting or crochet as this can be done very easily. The yarn from the seams will no doubt have to be discarded. I find it easiest when unravelling the work to wind the yarn into loose balls. From the balls it is neces- sary to wind, the wool into loose skeins.

It is advisable to tie the skein in four places, again loosely, this will pre- vent the strands becoming entangled in the washing and drying process. Using warm water, not too hot, and a mild soap suds, gently swish the skeins around in the water until you are satisfied that all soil is removed. Gently squeeze, then repeat the process two or three times in clear water. Now roll the skeins into a white turkish towel so that all the excess moisture is absorbed without wringing the skeins, as this would damage the fibres of the wool or yarn. I myself use a broom handle for the drying of the skeins. I simply pass them onto the long handle and leave to dry. One must take into account the amount of wool salvage in this way and if knitting another sweater, perhaps the addition of stripes to the pattern will help to accommodate a larger size. If the wool is only salvage for toques and mitts a considerable savings will have been made. 0--0-0 Just for fun crochet a Valentine made from scraps of fabric and a little crochet.

Falcon Crest's favorite redhead By COLE BOUCHEZ If redheand over theyouareage a ,of25; youad 're probably all too familiar with the fashion by-laws that once read: don't wear pink, don't wear purple and bathe your eyes in green, green and more green! Well, the rules are now out the window as a whole new and exciting breed of sharp and sassy redheads throws fashion caution to the wind and looks livelier than ever. One of these brilliant new trend-setters is seen each Friday night portray- ing Victoria Giaberti on the CBS heart -pounder, "Falcon Crest." Her name is Jamie Rose and she was very excited about answer- ing this week's reader question. Lee T. of Southern Cali- fornia writes: "I have red hair similar to actress Jamie Rose. Can you give me any tips about what's in for redheads this year?" Jamie doesn't claim to be an authority but she does have her very own special sense of style. To begin with, Jamie's eyes are blue -gray, flecked with gold; that gives them a hazel appearance, so for daytime she sticks to shad- ows that help to accentuate that color. "My skin is very pale and I have absolutely no tan, even in summer," says Jamie, "so for daytime I like the look of a soft brown shadow which en- hances my eyes and lots of peach blusher and rust lip- stick which blends well with my hair and skin tone It achieves a sort of 'Re- naissance' look," she says "and it doesn't look over- done." In addition, _Jamie fur- ther ehhanees her eyes by lining the Inside lower rim with a brown pencil for daytime and then adding a black or brown liner around her entire eye for night-time glamour. "I always use a soft - leaded pencil rather than a_.., liquid liner," she says, "as it's easier to control. You can make the line light or heavy, smudge it or leave' it clear. It's much more versatile. "Fashion has gone through a lot of changes," Says this bright and outspo- ken actress, "and" a lot of those changes involved do's and don'ts for redheads. People used to think we would look awful if we wore purple or red but I find that just isn't so. I've worn pink eye shadow, red hp and cheek color and a red dress and it looked ter- rific. Of course," she adds, "you REALLY have to have someplace to go. And be prepared to talk. A lot!" Just one peek into her clothes closet will tell you Jamie practices what she preaches! "I love lots of real 'high' colors, she says, "like neon blue, hot purple, deep violet and dark teal and, of course, black, one color that is both traditional and trend -setting. I feel that these particular colors have more of an impact. Rusts and browns are nice, too," she concludes. "But the overall look is less in- tense and less dramatic." The one color she sug- gests redheads avoid is orange because, "if you don't get the exact right shade, it not only competes with your hair color but often clashes." She also avoids eyeshadows in JAMIE ROSE ... Her own special sense of style shades off blue and -green. "There are really no rules anymore,"... says Jamie, "and that's just fine with me! Don't be afraid to experiment ... that's the best advice that I can think of!" SUPER BEAUTY HINT If you'd like to highlight your hair with streaks that look as if they were hand - placed by the sun you might want to try Tina Cassaday's .special recipe that you can make at home. Tina, whose Beverly Hills salon caters to some of the most glamorous women in the world, sug- gests you mix equal parts of honey with alum (a min- eral salt) and "paint" the mixture on your hair with a brush wherever you de- sire the streaking effect. Wait one hour and then shampoo and you will not only have highlights but your hair also will have lots of bounce and luster. For a more intensified streaking, place mixture on hair and sit in the sun for one hour. To add red highlights to strawberry blonde„ auburn or brown hair, simply brew one strong cup of rosemary tea and use as a final rinse.
