Oxford Texture Tweed Bookmark

Work Description

’Texture Tweed Stitch’ I am currently exploring texture & colours. I started with a photograph of the Sheldonian Theatre, Oxford, UK & identified the main colours needed for this bookmark. I love the combination of these colours, something I would never of put together normally. I have used camel, brown & blue. The stitches used are knit, purl & slip stitch. I have just finished reading a book: ‘The Mindfulness of Knitting’, by Rachael Matthews. I practised mindfulness when creating & knitting this piece. It helped me to unwind after a busy day & appreciate what I was creating. It is something I would thoroughly recommend to all who enjoy crafting.
