KNIT: stencils

Here are close ups of the knit samples I used in the Sibling project. As my research was inspired my Basquait, Street Art and Haitan Voodoo I decided to use spray paints and fabric paints on top of the knit.




I knitted a plain grey sample and used a stencil with fabric paint so I could have this beautiful 2 headed beast on the knit.


I was influenced by Jean Michel Basquait and used his image of a crown that I made a stencil of, then used fabric spray paint. It washes very well which I was rather surprised by.
