I am a fashion designer (minor Open Design) and interested in sharing knowledge about knitwear. Therefore I initiated a project focusing on sharing knitting knowledge. This led to the following question: Which ways of sharing are possible using various knitting techniques, and how do these ways of sharing make it possible for other people to participate?

Website: www.exchange-knitting.com

The knitted patchwork collection

From a collection of knitted patches with different techniques, shapes and materials, to what will eventually become a collection of clothing based on shared knitting knowledge. This way each piece of clothing will consist of many different styles and techniques. The techniques and crafts are all documented and described so that the making process is shared on the project’s website. This project is endless and therefore patches are always welcome. Curious? Take a look at www.exchange-knitting.com and knit along with us! Yvonne Swiers is a graduate student of Fashion / minor Open Design

-De gebreide patchwork collectie: kleding gebaseerd op gedeelde brei kennis.
-Yvonne Swiers is een mode ontwerpster (minor Open Design) en is geïnteresseerd in het delen van brei kennis. Hierdoor is ze een project gestart over het delen van deze kennis. Dit bracht de hoofdvraag: Welke manier van delen is mogelijk door gebruik te maken van verschillende technieken en laat mensen hier in participeren?
-Door middel van verzamelde brei lappen met diverse technieken, vormen en materialen, zal er uiteindelijk een kleding collectie ontstaan. Hierdoor krijgt één kledingstuk meerdere stijlen en bestaat uit verschillende technieken. De brei werkwijze van de lappen zijn gedocumenteerd en beschreven zodat dit maak proces wordt gedeeld op de website van het project.
-Dit project heeft geen einde, waardoor brei lappen altijd welkom zijn.
-Geïntrigeerd? Bekijk de website www.exchange-knitting.com en brei mee!
