WOODS OF YPRES - Keyboardist Launches Corpseknit Clothing Line; Now Accepting Orders
Posted on Saturday, January 05, 2008 at 05:04:10 EST
Jessica Rose, keyboardist for Canada's WOODS OF YPRES, recently launched her own line of neo-Victorian knitwear under the Corpseknit Clothing banner. She has issued the following update:
"As a designer, I create items that reflect my personal style. In turn, my pieces take on new life as they are infused with the stylistic vision of the wearer. My work is designed to be easily integrated into a wardrobe and enjoyed many times over.
I studied Fashion Design in Toronto, and graduated with highest honours in 2003. I am now working out of my humble home studio in Kitchener, Ontario.
My work is produced using a mechanical vintage Japanese knitting machine. Creating this way allows me to knit delicate yarn in intricate patterns that I would not be able to do by hand. With great patience and meticulous attention to detail, each piece is individually knit, blocked, and seamed.
Thank you for your support, and I encourage all Etsians to keep supporting independent artists and manufacturers. We can make a difference!"
