Magda Sayeg   Yarn Bombing inspiration

Magda Sayeg’s been knitting since she was small and in 2005 she founded Knitta, a collective of Yarn Bombers who took to transforming urban spaces with wooly grafitti. Since her first knitted door knob, Sayeg has gone on to gain commissions with companies such as Absolute vodka, Smart car and Mini Cooper and has even covered the air con ductwork of Etse’s head office with her multicoloured masterpieces. Patternbank loves the way mundane urban spaces and objects are given a surprising splash of colour, with handmade simplicity transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.

Missoni A/W 2012   Woven Textures catwalks

Missoni’s A/W 2012 Collection was an array of textured earthy yarns and  prints with references to nature. Their signature look was of course still evident but things looked more organic this time round. Earthy threads twisted their way around like contours on a map and knits resembled tree bark. A Collection that seemed to be heading in a great new direction. missoni.com. Images via vogue.com
