Fashion Elective; Week One

On Tuesday we started our knitting project.  One of the swatches we have to knit is a colour study.  I based the colours of my swatch on this picture from my first semester project: 





Some of the spools of yarn I used to mix my colourstudy yarn.



Finished colour study ball of yarn.


I shredded calico fabric and used it to knit this swatch with 20mm knitting needles.  The thick strip of fabric and the bigger knitting needles made a loose knit which I liked.


I felted lengths of pure Merino wool with coloured yarns to make this felted yarn.  I prefer this type of yarn with the extra bright coloured yarn to the felt on it's own.
