Design
The design unit is the same for all Craft Skills and consists of 5 units
- Colour
- Line
- Texture
- Shape
- Form
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.
Craft - Hand Knit Textiles
The assessments for hand knitting are:
- A jumper with inset sleeves

Each item will illustrate different stitch construction(s). One item must use a mixed stitch construction chosen by the student. Each garment will show a different shape/style of neckline. Each garment/item will be made using a different yarn or yarn mix. At least one item will show the use of a minimum of two colours. Students will produce the patterns to their own original design.
