Just Found...

Just found this lovely piece of knitting...I love the way that the wearer has the power to portray how it will look on the body, the designer can only determine so much of the end product the rest is in the wearers control. Collection One of Haewon Shin.

In Wonderland...

Posted by Zoe Fletcher on Tuesday, March 31, 2009,
Today was a little surreal, my very talented fashion photography friend decided that one of the themes for photographing my UseLess Technology knitting would be Alice in (fashion)  Wonderland, so me being the dutiful friend agreed to dress up as the White Rabbit... although it was rather regretfully after the strange looks we got as we arrived at the park!! It was very very fun though and the pictures turned out great...i've posted a couple below but shall put more on a page on my website i ...

A collection of photographs from my Nanna and Grandad's past...i love the how aged they look and also how seriously they took posing for a photo - like it was a special occasion and something to treasure rather than a throw away snap shot in time.

Great illustrator's website - misprintedtype.com, it has lovely layered drawings with so much attention to detail and nicely laid out with an almost aged austere feel to many of them.



I love the worn aged look of this illustration...its quite ...

NEW WEBSITE!!!!

Posted by Zoe Fletcher on Monday, March 30, 2009,
After far too long i've finally got around to setting up a website...After i've figured out how to do some fancy stuff i'm sure i'll be a lot happier with it but for now i'm gonna go for the simplistic look!! I'm going to transfer the last part of my old blog over so it will hopefully run a lot smoother and everything will be in one place...But bare with me whilst i sort it out!! Hopefully this will give me a place to put my inspiration and show the developments of new projects!! Enjoy!!

ABOUT ME


Zoe Grace Fletcher Currently undertaking a PhD at Manchester Metropolitan University within the MIRIAD post-graduate department, I am beginning a practice based academic journey into British wool fibres and new technologies within knitwear design. Graduating with Distinction from a Masters in Fashion and the Environment at London College of Fashion, specialising in hand-knitting and the British Wool Industry, I have worked on a number of knitwear collections (personal and external companies), whilst freelancing and researching for a number of exciting projects. My work revolves around the idea of sustainable fashion from a knitted perspective and the different ways to achieve this incorporating the ideas of slow fashion into mainstream society. I love knitting. And wool. And double sided sticky tape.
