This is what I had been waiting for – an appetiser tray of fabric and fibre creations like no other.
So let’s say that you are looking for an idea for a sweater, perhaps and you take a look at Capucci’s museum pieces (he’s on display at www.philamueum.org/exhibitions) and you say – “Wow, I had never really thought of adding ruffles here or pleats there or….or….
There are a few designers who have created the ruffles, but maybe not added them to a sweater or vest. Others have worked with layers or psuedo layers to create very delicate garments.

There was even a dress by Roberto that featured a bodice trimmed in what looked like eyelash yarn. Sorry the picture was in the globe; but not on-line.

To see more designs by Roberto Capucci, just google his name and you will be amazed. Now take some of these ideas and apply them to knitting designs. It’s that simple 🙂
Enjoy Carol
