Kniting: fashion, craft, art and technology by Sandy Blackk


Even though I have chosen print CAD as my specialization, I really like knit and this lecture was really interesting.

Knit, some aspects:
  • duality, universality
  • 2D and 3D
  • underwear to outwear ( 1st seamless knit: socks and stockings)
  • engineering knit
  • craft and technology
Some examples:

  • first punk knit by Vivienne Westwood
  • hand knitted Jean Paul Gaultier Collection (not found)
  • Julien MacDonald revolutionary hand knit and lace
  • Freddie Robins , the knitted wedding blog and Freddie Robins interview on knitting.

  • Louise Gouldin, very young and refreshing knit
