freestyle knitting














I've been working endlessly on a project I'm calling freestyle knitting! It is a 3-dimensional investigation of common characters from my paintings and drawings. All knit and embroidery, no sewing and no pattern. Just one constant form. For now, they are supported by a wire armature. The piece I've shown is on a stretcher measuring 16''x16''. When the series is complete I will stiffen the yarn and remove the wire. This is not the finished product, but I wanted to post the progress. Many more to come!
