Design

The design unit is the same for all Craft Skills and consists of 5 units

Based on these Design Elements design ideas are developed using a variety of design techniques. The visual sources for design development can be drawn from primary (actual objects) or secondary (photographs, pictures or images from the web) sources.

Hand Knitting
