The Anti-Sample

  • Rosalie Oakman

The anti-sample, over 50hours, no idea of the actual time it took, 90x60cm What do you do with your samples? How do you make them live on? I am on a degree about sustainability and I want to raise the question of “how sustainable are our samples?” I decided to join in a big patchwork my samples that I was currently doing to teach myself the technique. Making them a whole and giving the possibility of endless growing. What do you think about sustainability and samples? What happens with you samples? Hand knitting and crochet exploration of techniques. Yarns used: a lot of acrylic and blends, lurex chain (@knitworkslondon), recycled yarns, ripe, and a piece of an old plastic bag.
