What was your inspiration?

The tile motifs found in tiles used in Spanish Revival architecture and design.

What are you most proud of?

I really like the beaded motifs. I think they give enough bling to make this dressy if you want it to be, but it still works with jeans.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

This is a great mix of interesting & TV knitting! Play with the colors of the beads vs the yarn. Make sure to swatch your combination, though.

This is gorgeous! I've yet to use beads in my knitting, but this is quite inspiring!

Thanks! It's from my upcoming book, California Revival Knits, from Cooperative Press.
