My graduate collection nearly 20 years ago 🫣 Wow time has flown and so much has changed!
When I look at my work from back then I see how basic my knowledge and technique was, but also how much more experimental and free.
I had a lot more time to play around with ideas, but I had not yet refined my skills in knitwear. I am largely self taught so have made many more mistakes than necessary 😅 but also, learning through failure can make you more creative and open up ideas in a new way that old paths don’t allow for.
Looking at my work now I’m happy that I’ve become much more skilled and have an excellent knowledge base, but I do miss just messing around with ideas for a few weeks with no particular aim!
Head to my website and have a look at my blog to see a more in-depth article I’ve written about my degree, my graduate collection and where I’m at now with my work. Link in bio.
