Work in Progress

Work in progress- weaving black bin bags. Having the black bags pinned at the back of the mannequin I have started bringing them around and weaving them from both sides to begin to shape a top. So far I am really liking the outcome and the texture and stretch the fabric has.

Inspiration - Gareth Pugh A/W 13

I am absolutely in love with this collection constructed using strips of bin bags, love the tight woven structures mixed with big pom pom shapes. You would never think it was it was made with bin bags!

Weaving Rubbish!!! ( Bin Bags)

Weaving black bags on card. I wanted to work out how to add in tassels and so I wove two rows and then attached them in and repeated. I like the effect and the movement it has and so want to repeat on a larger scale.

Plain weave with black bags, I like the way the light shines on it creating different tones and shapes.
