This week I am refining my
development samples. With some of the samples I need more flashes of red and
pink, while others are lacking in range of colour. I aim to address this problem by adding colour through embroidery. The aim is to incorporate this technique once my
knits are off the machine when I can judge where and what embroidary might be required.
I have completed few black
based knits although this isn't what my initial research indicated. Therefore I
need to be minimising the black in my samples, changing the base colour to a
lighter yarn or monofilament to more accurately represent those colours from
the initial research.
Some of my samples are
still overly controlled and patterned. Consequently
I am adding more beading and inlaying to cause more disruption, showing
movement in alternative ways. In addition I have been making quite small
samples and will this week will focus my work on elongating my techniques to
create larger samples, to show how they will look on a greater scale.
Finally I will have to consider what works
well, similarly taking out what doesn't. Also I aim to lighten up my colour palette to
portray my sketchbook more accurately, whilst also bringing disorder to my
overly controlled pattern.
