The Raven Pullover is inspired from traditional Northwest Coast Indigenous art traditions, specifically from my people, the Tahltan. I’ve been looking for a way to incorporate traditional motifs without offering an appropriative design.
So much has been taken from Indigenous peoples all over the planet. Honouring and appreciating other cultures can be done with respect.
This design draws from traditional Formline Art (Formline is the term used to describe the traditional art stylings of the Northwest Coast of North America) with a Conceptual Art flavouring.
The Raven Pullover is an oversized, boxy cropped sweater with drop shoulders and an intarsia pattern on the front and back. The body is knit flat and seamed, the sleeves are picked up at the shoulder and knit in the round.
There are two sized intarsia charts to ensure similar proportions of the motif through all sizes.
