Scarves


Another second year project…





A few pages of development in my sketchbook and some of my knit samples…this was a collection to be used for scarves, lots of ruffles, petal details, and laser cut fabric.








Ikebana

A few images from a second year project that was inspired by Ikebana, a Japanese flower arranging art form which focuses on emphasising the stem and leaves of the plant rather than the flowers. I was aiming to produce some knit fabrics with print detailing; suitable for use in interiors …I continued the theme by including some lotus flower origami embellishments made from squares of Fair Isle knitting.

As I'm new to this and its usually best to start from the beginning...



I was very excited to recieve a commendation in Bradford Textiles competition with my first knit module samples.



A selection of Print, Weave and knit.



Second module of weave, an accessories project inspired by Samurai Armour...a couple of samples and my little clutch bag.


Second module of print, A Project inspired by Aesop's Fables.
