Some Cool Crochet/Knitwear

My buddy Alysha is doing her Honours year in Fashion at AUT, focussing on knitwear, I popped by her studio yesterday and took some pics of the GREAT stuff she's doing..


This is hyperbolic crochet, you crochet to mathematical algorithms and end up with this exaggerated, coral-like form of crochet..



Which she is then using to construct this.. SO awesome
 


This is something she's been working on recently, the red is a big sheet of knitted fabric she constructed on the machine, the technician calls it the 'nipple' technique, through slipping stitches (I think!) you end up with the bumps in the fabric, it's all so inspiring!
