Experimental Knit

Experimental knitting? I'm thinking Sandra Backlund (who I've already mentioned), Mark Fast, and now Pringle, who have brought experimental knitting to something of the norm; sold in high street stores...yes and by that I do mean Top Shop. Just as a quick aside, people love to mention Topshop.


Mark Fast.



Pringle of Scotland.



Topshop.


Other than just experimental knit in fashion, I have come across some rather amusing knitted things. And when I say things, I mean really really random stuff.




Look how wonderful these knitted cupcakes are! I absolutely love them. I really do! I just think they're such ingenious ideas. What knitter would hate knitted cupcakes. But what does one do with them? I would definitely squeeze them. I reckon they'd be really a good stress release.



A knitted chair. Yep.




Yes, most certainly a knitted bicycle. Obviously. No not a scarf, or a jumper...a bicycle. One may think it's pointless, and I'll probably agree, but it is fun. And we like fun.
How long do you think it took to make? A very long time.



And if it couldn't get any weirder. A knitted digestive system.
It just goes to show, one can literally knit anything, in any way.
