About me

Hello! I’m Nora (aka Beatriz)

I’m a transplanted Canadian now living in the sun-drenched hills of southern Spain—where the winters are short, the food is divine, and my knitting habits remain entirely unaffected by the climate.

My true love is sweaters: classic, comfortable, everyday pieces that feel like a warm hug and look effortlessly pulled together. I design with clarity in mind—my patterns are both written and charted, professionally tech edited, and test knit to ensure a smooth experience from cast-on to final stitch.

When I’m not knitting (or thinking about knitting), you’ll likely find me exploring whitewashed mountain villages, snapping photos of crumbly doors and orange trees, or deciding which tapas best suit my mood.

Here, I share patterns, musings, and glimpses of Spain through my lens—with the hope that you’ll feel inspired, welcomed, and maybe just brave enough to try something new on your needles.

Find me on Instagram at @NoraBeaKnits or browse my patterns on Ravelry, LoveCrafts and Payhip. And don’t be shy—I’d love to hear what you’re working on.
