Flower Project Bag
FLOWER PROJECT BAG “Hønsestrik” (literally “chicken knitting”) is the rebellion of the 70’s against the contemporary understanding of knitwear fashion.
The garments were knitted with colourful patterns, and there were no specifications for pattern combinations and colours. “Hønsestrik” encouraged people to express their own creativity and experiment in a playful way.
And this joy of “free play on the needles” with colours and fun patterns is exactly what I want to share with this instruction.
If you can’t find the motifs you would like to use in this pattern, feel free to search on the internet or elsewhere. The possibilities are almost endless.
