Beautiful, would love to have this work space!

Technical Development

I wanted to develop my technical skills and create more innovative knits for my Romeo and Juliet project.

I decided to use the back of Lace #1 and join it to the front of lace #2. To do this i had to transfer different stitches from the front and back beds so no holes were created.

The outcome was successful with interesting textures being created with both techniques.

I wanted to develop the colour development with different techniques and used my previous lace techniques to experiment with scale and placement of colour.

Colour development : Variation on Romeo and Juliet’s colour palette

10gg Dubied machine, single bed fabrics

I wanted to develop my colour palette for my Romeo and Juliet project and have 2 distinct collections to base my final pieces on.

I went back over my sketch book and studied colours and created several yarn wraps based on these. I then chose my favourite palette which i feel portrayed my conceptual ideas of Romeo and Juliets story.

Colour & Knit Development

Through research and development of knitted textiles and my own visual research i felt my work needed refining and key ideas and themes to be focused upon.

My colour pallette so far has been a little off, so i spent alot of time chosing specific yarns looking at quality and colour.

I made a collection of yarn wraps from my selected colours and began texting their knitted qualities and overall effect.

I began developing this into my previous knitted textiles designs.
