What is freeform?

begin by knitting or crocheting virtually anything at all – here we have a small knitted square

add something else onto it – say a few random crochet stitches

…and something else again – like maybe a small crochet shell

pick up a few stitches along any edge, and knit a bit more

…and then make another addition somewhere else

crochet a separate, circular motif

…and attach it into place with a few crochet slip stitches

maybe add another

…and then knit on something else

add another different crochet motif

…and fill in some gaps

work a few fancy stitches in crochet

…and in knitting

and if you want to know more, see my book…

and learn to create garments like this!

of course, not all freeform pieces need to follow this
exact formula. for other ideas see the scrumble gallery
