Development: Foiled Knit

From using screen printing techniques such as foiling and flocking on normal fabric, I decided to try them on the knitted surface. Pulling the glue through a screen created a very fine effect on the surface, so there was only small amounts for the foil or flock to stick. However, if I painted it on by hand it created a better surface of glue on the stitches for the techniques to be applied.

I also tried forming patterns, such as stripes shown here.
