Knit! has designed the “Red in Rome” sweater . The pattern, available from knit!  calls for a combination of Beaded Plie and Plie yarns.   As described by Knit!:

 It is a super-simple first project pattern! The bottom portion is made with using a silk yarn “double” so it knits fast. The top portion is made with the beaded version of the yarn. No increases or decreases, just straight knitting and then sew the pieces together.  You can do it!
