Used materials of copper wire, sisalana, electric wire... etc, I had manufactured the work of formative textile arts by knitting technique.
After this work , the conclusion that I get is as follows.
First, a comprehension of materials is as important as technique. For the harmony of artificial material (copper wire, electric wire) and natural material(sisalana), it have to bring into relief strength after grasping character of materials and complement weakness.
Second, for expression of the color sense of variety, it must have been dyed systematic colors by several stages. After this, for effect of natural gradation using several colors, it have to use sisalanas that are different density followed thickness of needles, But this work is very complex and request some patience.
Third, the weaknesses of knitting technique are an appearance of curl up and character of fraying. But it bring into relief as strength for natural shape and it is possible to correct by mixed with copper wire.
Forth, during keeping, it has some changed of shape by press and this point have to be studied more. The experienced knitting technique getting through a course of formative work of this kind have a possibility of limitless development as a tool of creative expression, getting out of a traditional concept.
A case, accompanied analysis and exploitation of new materials, accompanied creative, new and development-oriented pose and continual investigation, the formative textile arts will be shine.
