YARN STASH FEST

A festival for knitters and crocheters to bring their extra yarn and craft together. Crafters can either create their own projects, or do collaborative work, like yarn bombing or granny squares blankets. Every knitter/crocheter has a yarn stash at home, either of yarn leftover from a project, or skeins they bought and never found a use for. This will be a way for crafters to use up their extra yarn (or share it with other crafters), and create in a community. I named the festival, designed the logo, created the visual system, and applied the visual system to various print and digital mediums. The branding system and logo are based off of knitting symbols and knitting/crochet charts.

Collaborated with the Knit Together club leader, Pam Roller, to create social media posts for a Halloween yarn swap event. Designed graphics in a variety of sizes for Instagram and Facebook posts, as well as for event pages on the Creative Mornings and Library of Arts and Culture Websites. Evolved branding that was created for the yarn Stash fest project. Used knitting chart patterns from that brand, pulling the orange and purple colors from the palette to make it Halloween appropriate, and incorporated the Knit Together branding as well.
