The priority for this week has been to
sort a colour palette and yarn selection to work with and to begin
sampling. I have developed the colour palette I used for the Bradford
project. I wanted to bring in the indigo dyeing, as I am keen to experiment
with this natural process. I also really like the depth of colour that can be
achieved with it. There were a few images that I drew my palette from; I put
them together to work out proportion and composition.

I have also begun sampling, developing
some of the most successful ideas from the last unit. In the below sample I was
experimenting with the embellished lace technique I have explored previously. I
like the contrast between the metallic and softer wool.
I have also gone back to my photos and drawings,
dissecting them to generate new ideas. I thought the composition of the image
of the door below really interesting and wanted to put that into knit. I can
imagine how the combination of small and large ladders could be scaled up to
work on a garment.
