Knit Stars Yarniverse - shiny silver letters in which the i is a crochet hook, and the v is a pair of knitting needles; there's a slight glimmer as if of starlight on the last letter and the background is black

Maxine the Mini: A JimiKnits Design!

22 April, 202324 April, 2023
Jimenez Joseph stands and leans happily against the bonnet of her beloved mini; she is smiling and relaxed, wearing a pair of blue jeans and her Maxine the Mini cardigan the predominant colour of which is a grey colour. There is stranded colourwork detailing on the sleeves, around the neck, and in the nifty steeked patch pockets in which Jimi has her hands

…of how a characterful and much-loved Mini Cooper inspired the creation of a magnificent cardigan design.

Wondrous Waltz

18 April, 2023
A Black model with locs - Faith Makawa - wears orange dungarees and a white t-shirt, which pick up on the orange in her purple and orange hat, and matching pair of mitts. In her hands she holds a record in an orange DECCA sleeve, she is facing towards shelves of music, as if looking to position or place the record somewhere on the shelf

…of a reversible hat and mitts set worked in double-knitting; bearing motifs inspired by the bass lines of two songs; and visibilising creative sonic practices.
