Persian Tiles - a tryout


I have long wanted to translate some real Persian tiles into crochet hexagons. My folders are full to the brim with pictures of these lovelies, and not until I decided upon one, did I realize what a paramount task that would be.
 
Nevertheless, I had to get it out of my system (and brain!), so I created the one above. Then, as it always happen with me, I got tickled by the idea of using self-striping yarn to see how the same pattern would go, mainly because I got bored with changing the yarn in every new round, and I also wanted chunkier yarn so that it would grow bigger and faster, and let me tell you, I was not disappointed. Not at all!
 


Here I stopped the project, but I guess I will return to it at some point as I am not done with the Persians.

They came out so pretty and it's a lot easier using the self-striping yarn. Have fun crocheting Maya.

I never knew that something made with self-striping yarn would look like this. Beautiful!
