I've recently been working a lot with Form and Structures within knit and weave. I feel like i've found my place in the world of crafts. These are 2 of my hand knitted pieces that I created over about a day and a half. I've worked with increasing, decreasing, stocking stitch, garter stitch, and change of colour. The work looks much clearer presented properly and mounted and I'll get some photos soon. I'd worked with 3D weave work before, such as making things like small baskets and shapes and tried to re-create these through knit. I think knit is seen too much as a flat surface pattern, a jumper or a pretty flower. Why can't knit be outside the box too?
