Cruz-Diez
Cruz-Diez è un omaggio all’installazione contemporanea “Double Physicromie, 2005”, esposta nel campus dell’Università di Houston, dell’artista venezuelano Carlos Cruz-DIez.
L’ho ideata in occasione di MA-CIO, l’evento MAgliuomini & CIOccolato che abbiamo organizzato con l’associazione Magliuomini presso il negozio Filofilà: dall’8 al 10 aprile 2016 3 giorni di maglia, uncinetto, tintura e…cioccolato!
Più che copiarla pedissequamente ho cercato di riprodurne l’effetto abbinando un filato variegato con uno unito. Io ho usato:
- CP - Georgette di ChiaroScuro (330 m/ 100 gr, 75% lana merino extrafine/ 25% seta mulberry) Choco-TuttiFrutti – 1 matassa
Sulka Legato di Mirasol
(250 m/ 50 gr, 60% lana merino/ 20%
alpaca/ 20% seta)
- CC1 - 14, Kingfisher – 1 matassa
- CC2 - 20, Copper – 1 matassa
Per creare le “alette” ho combinato la tecnica dei ferri accorciati con quella per fare delle pieghe orizzontali che ho illustrato in un mini foto tutorial. Tutte le tecniche e i punti sono molto basilari (avvio e chiusura, diminuzioni, aumenti, etc…) ma li ho ugualmente linkati a video su Youtube.
Una volta apprese le due tecniche principali, lo scialle non presenta alcun tipo di particolare difficoltà e si realizza in un unico pezzo, senza cuciture.
Se i colori originali del modello non ti piacciono nelle ultime pagine del pattern puoi trovare altri diversi abbinamenti fra i quali scegliere. Buon lavoro!
Cruz-Diez is my homage to contemporary installation “Double Physicromie, 2005”,by Venezuelan artist Carlos Cruz-Diez, which is on display at Houston University campus. I designed it to celebrate MA-CIO, the MAgliuomini & CIOccolato event that we had planned with Magliuomini association, hosted by the “Filofilà” yarn store: 3 days of knitting, crocheting, dyeing and…chocolate!
I did not intend to copy the installation. Instead, I wanted to recreate its visual effect by using a variegated yarn with a solid one. I’ve used:
- MC - Georgette by ChiaroScuro (330 m/ 100 gr, 75% extrafine merino wool/ 25% mulberry silk) Choco-TuttiFrutti – 1 skein
Sulka Legato di Mirasol
(250 m/ 50 gr, 60% merino wool/ 20%
alpaca/ 20% silk)
- CC1 - 14, Kingfisher – 1 skein
- CC2 - 20, Copper – 1 skein
For the small pleats (photo tutorial included in the pattern) I have used a combination of short rows with the 3-needles bind-off. Once you have learned these techniques, this shawl will be quite straightforward as it is worked seamlessly in one piece.
All the techniques used are very basic (cast-on and bind-off, decreases, increases, etc …) but each one is linked to a Youtube video.
If the suggested colors are not to your liking, you will find more color combinations to choose from in the last pages.
Special thanks to 3owin for the english translation and to Flipbrat for the proof reading.
