Unit X: Other Samples

 
As part of five of us in the group, three of us were the main contributors towards the final samples. Myself (who specialises in weave), Anna (who does textiles and specialises in print) and Lucie (who does fashion and knit).

Anna focused on the wildlife of the rainforest, mainly the frogs, where the idea for this print came from. Anna experimented with different types of print including puff, flock and pigment onto different materials such as denim, waterproof, and various sheer fabrics. I believe that these prints will work well along side and compliment my samples.

 
 

Lucie's knit samples are a beautiful mix of (dubied) ribbing and silver reed knitting. The colours are much more vibrant than the weave or knit, which adds an energetic edge to what will be the designs. The ribbing will work perfectly for bomber jackets' cuffs and collars as well as jumpers and quirky pockets.
