Why choose Rico Creative Make It Perlchen?
  • Glass Beads Twisted In: Make It Perlchen is a 100% lyocell thread with small glass beads worked into it, 255 m on a 25 g spool. Knit or crochet it together with your main yarn and you get beading without threading a single bead.
  • Beads Stay Evenly Spaced: Because the thread is plied, the beads can only shift slightly along it, so they settle in an even scatter instead of bunching. Rico notes your pattern needs no changes, since the thread simply runs along.
  • Gemstone-Named Shades: Crystal, Rose Quartz, Amethyst, Jade, Gold and Olivine Multicolour add a fine glint and texture to collars, shawls, tops and hat brims. Rico specifies hand wash, with no tumble drying or ironing.
Description

Rico Creative Make It Perlchen – Glass Beads Already on the Thread

Rico Creative Make It Perlchen is a fine 100% lyocell carry-along effect yarn (25 g / 255 m) with real glass beads pre-strung along the thread. Hold it together with your main yarn and the beads settle into the fabric as you knit or crochet — a delicate, jewellery-like shimmer for cuffs, collars, hat brims, shawl edges and evening accessories, with no bead-threading and no sewing afterwards. The gemstone-inspired shades pair beautifully with neutrals and pastels.

💡 Mix & Match: Prefer petals to pearls? Make It Blümchen scatters tiny flower sequins instead — or add all-over shimmer with Make It Tweed Glitz.

Why choose this beaded carry-along yarn?

  • No Bead-Threading: The glass beads come pre-strung and slide along the thread as you work, so you place them exactly where you want them — the fiddly part is already done.
  • Jewellery-Level Finish: Real glass catches the light in a way plastic sequins can't, turning a plain knit cuff or collar into something that reads as designer.
  • A Little Goes a Long Way: With 255 m on a 25 g ball, one ball carries you through an entire accessory project held along with your main yarn.

TIPS & TRICKS

Yardage Tip: The bead thread is used at the same rate as your main yarn, so one 255 m spool beads about 255 m of knitting. For a whole shawl or top, buy enough spools to match the main yarn's length, or carry Perlchen only in yokes, borders and cuffs.

About Product

What is the difference between Rico Make It Perlchen and Make It Rocaille?

Both are 100% lyocell carry-along threads with glass beads, but Perlchen is the finer one: 255 m per 25 g against 280 m per 50 g for Make It Rocaille, so Perlchen weighs about half as much per metre. Perlchen gives a delicate glint suited to fine shawls and mohair; Rocaille's seed beads give bolder beading on sweaters and hats.

Which main yarn goes well with Make It Perlchen?

Fine, smooth or softly haloed yarns show the small beads most clearly, such as kid mohair, fine merino or a sport-weight cotton. Alize Kid Royal 50 makes a light, sparkly shawl, and DROPS Safran a crisp summer top. Very chunky or fluffy yarns tend to swallow the beads, so stay between lace and DK weight.

Can I use Make It Perlchen on its own?

Yes, for small pieces: worked alone it makes beaded edgings and jewellery-style pieces such as bracelets, chokers or a picot trim. On its own it is a fine thread, so use a small crochet hook and firm tension, then sew the finished edging onto a garment or pick up stitches along it and knit straight on.

Does Make It Perlchen change my gauge or needle size?

Usually very little: keep the needle size your main yarn calls for, since the thread is fine and simply runs alongside. The beads and the second strand can make the fabric slightly firmer, so knit a 10 cm swatch with both strands held together, wash it the way you will wash the finished piece, and adjust by half a size if needed.
