From that, I either try to<br \/>\nreproduce it in color (which is rare), or communicate the idea of it<br \/>\nthrough cables or lace or texture. Sometimes I see a stitch pattern<br \/>\nthat inspires me and I hold on to that idea until it seems to fit an<br \/>\naccessory or garment. Most often, I scribble and sketch a loose idea,<br \/>\nand do the basic math for what the stitch count(s) need to be and<br \/>\nstart to knit from there. If the yarn and needles don&#8217;t work, or if I<br \/>\nsee something on the needles that makes me want to change my mind, I<br \/>\nwork from there, taking notes in my design book and working out the<br \/>\ndetails both on paper and in my knitting.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #737373;\">What influences your style?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My designs are themed, in large part, on Western garments and<br \/>\naccessories as they might be interpreted by Middle Eastern<br \/>\nsensibility. As someone who grew up in the US, of Arab parents and<br \/>\nfamily, my life has always been about making my culture match up with<br \/>\nthe world around me.

The challenge of<br \/>\ndescribing the process in a way that is easy to repeat and comprehend<br \/>\nis one I enjoy, as well. Grading is always a little more difficult<br \/>\nfor me, and the actual writing of the pattern from my notes can be.<br \/>\nUsually, I have a name for my project before I start or soon into the<br \/>\nprocess, and the last minute edits when a pattern has returned from<br \/>\nthe technical editor are not that hard.

One<br \/>\nof the most valuable things I have gained in the four years I have<br \/>\nparticipated as a designer is the camaraderie both with other<br \/>\ndesigners and with the crafters.

It really depends. Sometimes,<br \/>\nlike with a sample I am working on right now, it is the yarn. The<br \/>\nyarn for this one made me exclaim that it was a cloud, and even the<br \/>\nyarn name was cloud in Quechua. My goal was to give the impression of<br \/>\nclouds with the yarn, cables and the stitch patterns. Sometimes I see<br \/>\na pattern I love and search my stash for the right yarn that will make<br \/>\nthe project shine. Sometimes I experiment with whatever leftover yarn<br \/>\nI have on a technique or stitch pattern and save that idea for later.<br \/>\nWhen I buy yarn, I do tend to have a type of item in mind, so I will<br \/>\nsometimes check my patterns for a suitable match. There is a shawl<br \/>\nthat I saw in a documentary that I am still trying to figure out how<br \/>\nto reproduce.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #737373;\">Does anything intimidate you in knitting or crochet?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Steeking. I feel a little nervous just thinking about it. Also,<br \/>\nthough I am sure I could do it, I have never done intarsia. One day I<br \/>\nwill tackle both of those.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #737373;\">When you want to learn something, do you look it up in a book, on U-<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #737373;\">tube, or seek a real person to teach you?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A little of all three. I do have good technique books to look through<br \/>\nat home, and seek out good ones periodically, but if I need to see<br \/>\nsomething in person, I like to have a friend or teacher who can show<br \/>\nme. Failing that, I will look for videos, because I can play them<br \/>\nback over and over.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4438\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4438\" style=\"width: 530px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4438 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_8064-1024x851.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"530\" height=\"440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_8064-1024x851.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_8064-300x249.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_8064-768x638.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.christineguestdesigns.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IMG_8064.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4438\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Amira<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #737373;\">Any repetitive motion disorders due to knitting or crochet?

However, sometimes I like a particular<br \/>\ndetail, and I will buy a pattern for that alone. Many times, I buy a<br \/>\npattern just to see how a designer worked out a challenge that I am<br \/>\ndealing with, or shaped something I have been trying on my own. If<br \/>\nthe pattern is absolutely intended for me to make, and not just to<br \/>\nstudy, it has to be something that I would both enjoy making and<br \/>\nwearing (or that someone else in my family would enjoy using\/wearing).<br \/>\nMuch like with my own designs, I am drawn to interesting texture and<br \/>\nconstruction. I love cables, so am immediately attracted to those,<br \/>\nbut intriguing texture or lace are also interesting to me. While I<br \/>\nfind colorwork beautiful, I am more likely to make something with<br \/>\ntexture and one or two colors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got to interview with Ran\u00e9e Mueller, Arabianknits on Ravelry,\u00a0 also arabianknits on Instagram You as a designer questions: What is your design process?
