Shine! is an exploration of techniques, textures and knitting with beads. Each of the 18 designs has been crafted with love and attention to detail. The garments use a variety of yarns, unconventional constructions and beading in creative ways. Each new cast-on will connect you to the deep joy that can be found in knitting. 

Pope Vergara, a knitwear designer from Chile, has always loved knitting with beads. To her, they are a way to paint, to draw, and to transform knitting into something unique, allowing even the simplest garment to stand out with a touch of sparkle. “When I began designing patterns, my intention was that whoever knits them feels proud of what they created — and that when they wear their garment, they shine!”
