Artist Research

One of the artists I looked at was Donna Wilson, she is a knitting artist and I have decided to try and replicate one of her cushions by knitting a square and stitching into it. I did Swiss Darning on this as I  didn't now how to switch between wool to do this pattern. I quite liked this artist and I think I did quite well. I did have a few problems at first as when I started my swiss darning I went into the wrong stitches and I realised part way through the white in the middle that I should have been working upwards rather than working down. This cause a few problems as I couldn't see where I was supposed to be going with the wool and I split the wool. For the next section I worked from the bottom and this worked better and I found it easier.
