Introduction to Knitting for Oversized Garments

“You have reached the end of the course. Thank you very much for allowing me to be your teacher and accompany me on this adventure. I hope that now you can see the fabric in a new way and that you can use your emotions to create a unique and full of life garment. Let me show you an example of how I would like to see your final project: The first steps To start, make your sketch. Remember to use your emotions as inspiration to design your garment. Once you have it ready, take the opportunity to translate your sketch into points. My recommendation is that you also use points that represent for you the emotions that inspired you.

Start weaving Get to work and start weaving. Find a space where you feel comfortable and can let not only the needles flow when knitting, but also the emotions. You can start by knitting the back and the front, then continue with the sleeves to finish joining the pieces. You can also add a collar if you wish. Block the garment I recommend that you block the garment. Use the technique that you like the most, but do not stop doing it. This way you make sure you are giving the perfect finish. Even if you make a garment similar to mine, yours will be different. Not just because of the colors, but because the emotions you are using to help your garment come to life are different. For this reason, I ask you, in addition to your process, to share a short text in which you tell me the story behind it. Don't stop sharing your projects. Upload them to the forum, I'll be giving you feedback as soon as possible. While you wait, I invite you to see and learn about the project of the rest of your colleagues. Take advantage of the forum and exchange ideas and advice with them to continue learning together. Once again thank you very much for your company in this course. See you soon!”

“Final project Thank you very much for reaching the end of this course and congratulations. Now is the time to embark on your path in the world of weaving and in the interpretation of your emotions. But first I would like to remind you of some important information. Remember to look for sources of inspiration that allow you to connect with those emotions with which you want to work or enhance your creations. If you don't handle the technique, it is important that you practice the points you want to use. I advise you to create a sampler for you to use as a guide in your own fabrics. Define yo...”
