Developing my concept




In response to my research, I have decided to focus on detail around places such as the neckline, cuffs and trims of knitwear. To make my concept further sustainable I am going to make these detailed areas intricate and delicate, almost like jewelry. This way, when the main body of the garment has worn out, the shape has gone out of fashion, or the customer is no longer satisfied, they can return their garment so the main part can be unravelled and re-knitted but the detailed neckline, cuffs or trim arent re-knitted but are the only part of the garment that is kept.




To develop my work I have been experimenting with the cable stitch and different patterns surrounding it to make it detailed and intricate.
