ARTIST INSPIRATION

Using a collaboration between Maharam and Paul Smith as inspiration through their woven samples helped with the layering of colours and textures. Combining set stitches on the Paff machine with a striped material and then using yarn sequences to pintuck over in places to create a formal structure, broke down lines and combined stripes with spots and a slight check print.
If I were to further develop this I would change the stitch settings - experiment with stitches onto the white and the black strip and also play with the size and surface area of pintucks.
