First Year - Second Semester Knit Work 'Fashion' (January - May 2009)

This project was from different artists such as Barbara Hepworth, Wassily Kandisky and Henry Moore with abstract and simple shapes that I have taken from them for inspiration. I have produced my own samples with punch cards and machine knitted my samples that they look very interesting. Yellow, Greens that I have used for this project.

I learnt to do fairisle technique (a combination of two colours and knitted together at the same time) and made some fantastic patterns and shapes of my samples. I really found it easier than the first time that I have used the knitting machines which that was very strange and so unreal. It just that I am more into the advance side of techniques that it keeps me going; I added some extra yarn on the needles to add a feature of my sample. I really enjoyed it a lot.
