Last but maybe most importantly,
trust your gut! More often than
not, you might not realize why
something goes together—it just
does! In the same way, you might
look at two patterns that "should
go together" but they don't. when I
look at two patterns that "should"
go together but just don't. If your
heart does a little flutter each
time you see them, then you
probably got it right. If your eye
keeps going to them over and
over again and you can't figure out
what's bothering you, your mixing
probably needs some tweaking!
Don't beat yourself up or give up
all together. Try swapping out one
of the patterns (probably the one
you like the least) for something
else until you find a combo that
works just right!
All in all, pattern mixing isn't an
exact science. But it can be oh-so-
fun, and the results can be oh-so-
worth it when you get it right.
