Creative Knitwear Design: From Inspiration to Final Concept

Have ideas for a knitwear design but unsure how to make them a reality?

In this workshop, I’ll walk you through every step of the creative process—from gathering inspiration that excites you to building a fully fleshed-out design.

By the end, you’ll have a knitwear concept that’s thoughtfully developed and ready for the next steps in pattern creation.

Here's what we'll cover: 

Finding Your Inspiration

Learn how to draw out meaningful, creative inspiration—from colours to textures—that you can use to shape your design.

Building a Mood Board

I’ll guide you through building a focused mood board, setting the foundation for a cohesive and inspired design.

Sketching Your Ideas

Discover sketching techniques that bring your ideas to life—no need to be a skilled artist!

Exploring Swatching

I’ll show you how to test stitch patterns, motifs, and textures so you can see your design come alive in knitted fabric.

Selecting the Right Yarn

Understand how to select yarn that enhances your design’s look, feel, and structure.

Refining Your Design

We’ll go over refining each element, leaving you with a fully developed design concept that’s ready for pattern development.

A Skill You’ll Use Time and Again

This workshop isn’t about a single project—it’s about giving you a creative process you can return to for every new idea.

Whether you’re refining your existing design skills or just beginning to create your own knitwear, this workshop offers a straightforward path to develop your ideas into well-considered designs.

You’ll come away with the skills and confidence to shape your inspiration into thoughtful knitwear concepts, adding a valuable tool to your design toolkit.

How It Works

The workshop is a pre-recorded video you can watch at your own pace. I’ll also record a Q&A session based on any questions you have after watching.

When You Can Watch

You can access the workshop video from Friday, November 8th. I’ll record the Q&A one week later, so you’ll have plenty of time to submit your questions. The Q&A will be available to watch shortly after that.

Yours to Keep

Once you’ve purchased the workshop, it’s yours to keep. You’ll have lifetime access to both the video and the Q&A, so you can revisit them whenever you like.
