Design Development . . .





Currently we are working towards a final design from the material we gathered and created over our last module. Starting with pot holes, cracks in the road and knitted jumpers with holes in, i have created these few drawings slowly evolving and developing them.

Crochet QR - Code . . .


I really love the idea of a QR-code, a way of hiding information in a geometric design, i decided i would have a go at crocheting one, unknown what i will use it for, and i am very happy that it worked and can be read by a QR-code scanner on my phone. Can you see what it says?? I used this generator to create the code.

Monoprints and Crochet . . .



Using images of pot holes and cracks in the road i created a few monoprints on tracing paper. Putting them back to back in the photocopier creates quite interesting layers, and build up of line. Just a few images of monoprints and then one i crocheted on top of adding texture.
