Textiles World: Week 3


 This week within knit my main focus has been developing in sampling aswell as sketchbook work. After getting much more for a feel for colour and line in my samples, I created a variety of samples using different techniques inspired by my visual imagery ( research, photographs and drawings).
 
Knit Sampling:
E wrap technique.
 
E wrap technique.
 
Two different yarns.
 

E Wrap with wire.
 
Looking over the samples I hae done this week I think they have overall been succesful. I like the E wrap technique samples especially as I like the patterns and lines that are made with this technique especially with the wire. I feel like these different techniques could be developed so much further if given the time or if I was ever to do knit again in the future.
 
Progression into weave:
Now that I have my colour palette as reference along with an idea in my head of what look I am trying to get across in my sampling I am ready and looking forward to transferring my ideas over to Weaving. I think that my colours, lines and structure ideas work really well within the weaving process.
