Description

[Prerequisite: FIBR/FIBRE 345] In this class students will learn intermediate and advanced level techniques to create fabric and 3-D forms by using the structure of knitting - an ancient technique consisting of a series of connected interlocking loops of yarn or fiber to create fabric. Students will assist the instructor by testing their previous knowledge in knitting and helping beginning students to learn the basic knitting stitches and techniques. Projects will build on previous knitting knowledge and will evolve by applying that understanding in solving problems in garment construction, sculptural forms or fabric yardage.
