D.I.Y.Y. ( Do It Yourself Yourself) will exhibit the work of young designers, craftspeople and knitting collectives, including Edelkoort’s creative teams, Collectif France Tricot in Paris and Studio Chevalier-Masson from Belgium. Visitors will be able to see inspiring sample textile knitted objects in vibrant colours as well as a documentary featuring the samples, all choreographed into one stunning multi-media exhibition.
The highlight of the stand will be the Guerilla knitting event when students and staff from the Elizabeth Galloway Academy of Fashion Design will celebrate creative knitting with D.I.Y.Y. pop-up knitting sessions during the VIP preview on Thursday 1 March and on Saturday 3 March from 10:00 – 19:00.
