Experimenting with my pieces...

Posted by Zoe Fletcher on Thursday, April 2, 2009
Today is about experimenting. With all the knitting samples I have done cluttering up my room i've gone on an organising spree and got them all labeled and pressed nicely (tidy is not something I do well!!) and have been using my imagination to transform the pieces into unusual garments on my old mannequin - with some surprising results... some of the pieces i wasn't entirely happy with turned out to look quite nice once hung on the silhouette! here are a few of the results...





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.
