Your Clarus is beautiful with the beads - what a special touch. That will be my next challenge. Looking for yarn. I would like it to be an off white or ivory, but need to find something without wool. And that is a challenge for me.

I am currently knitting a sweater with Berocco Lindsey, which is cotton and linen. It behaves great for lace work: however it is thicker than fingering. I think it is dk weight.

See if there is a cotton/linen in fingering.

Laura has a tutorial on her website about adding beads to knitting. You apply the bead as you knit using either a crochet hook or dental floss, It is easier than I thought it would be, but time consuming.

Were the beads added after the fact or during the process. I know she does the Clarus with a bead teaching video, just wondered

Congratulations...just lovely!. Makes me anxious to start Clarus too. Your yarn choice really shows off the stitches. It's making me rethink my choice of yarn...hmmm

Beautiful. Looks like you mastered the Lace Shawl quite nicely. The beads add a lovely touch.
