My favourites from 1st year

In my 1st year of university doing textile design I created several different pieces; some of my favourites include my cushion, a scarf, a ruffled top, and a textured skirt.

For my project, that ended around Christmas 2011, I looked at leaves.


This picture shows the printed side of my cushion using screen print, foil, hand and machine stitching.

The back of my cushion was knitted and then attached using hand stitching.

  

During March 2012 for my knit project, I created a striped scarf (pictured opposite). I love this piece and still use it today!

Even though it is quite a simple design it took quite a long time to make, as I had to count the amount of lines for each stripe.

The two pictures below this one are of a ruffled top which uses hooking up techniques and a textured skirt where I have plaited the knit and added twisted material. Both of these were also created in March 2012.
