KNIT - JAQUARDS I am just addicted to designing jaquards and fairisle, knitted in a combination of different yarns (hairy/boucle etc) or in a combination of different gages. This can be used in allsorts of articles. Here are some ideas.
LACE KNIT Knitted in any gage as long as it is in a soft yarn ,can be nice and light to wear. I have a special laceknit machine and can try out alsorts of swatches. Here are some stitches I love.
KNITTING NORDIC Some patterns I designed in EASYKNIT (computer = changes technical stitches in to yarn knitted stitches). For years I worked (still do) by hand, but no factory wants to work like that anymore...I still have archives full of hand drawn designs. These I am now transporting into this EASYKNIT program...just a few samples.
These are (what I call) Knitties. Made out of knitted or crochet material, combined with printed paper or textile (with embroidery).It can be used as inspiration (summer or winter). For me a way to start designing a collection in a non conventional way . More later....
As knitwear designer I have made, bought and seen many beautiful, special and fun knits. My favorite will always be Charlies jumper. Well done Mr Schultz!!
