Knitting Mad!

Another type of weaving we had to learn for this project was knitting. Luckily, i was taught to knit at a young age and was excited at being able to experiment a bit more with my samples.

This was my first knitting sample. I used a crimson red wool  to relate to my chosen season.

For this sample, I used thicker needles and yarn instead of wool. I liked the bigger stitches created from the thicker needles, and it was quicker to do.

This sample was created using an orange yarn with the same thicker needles.  I was really happy with the outcome of these samples.

I wanted to experiment more with my knitting samples, and decided to use two colours at once. The final outcome was my favourite of my knitting samples as it was thicker and more interesting with the two colours. It did however, take longer to do than with the thicker needles.
