Incense Route
This 5 pattern collection of garments and accessories is inspired by the Incense Route which went through the Arabian Peninsula, crossing the seaside areas, as well as the mountains and desert. It includes two garments, a rectangular stole, a shoulder hugging shawl, and pair of fingerless mitts. It a collaboration with Malabrigo Yarn for their Malabrigo Freelance Pattern Project. Each piece is named after a particular stop on the route or a tribe that was involved in it. They are designed with certain features from the art, textiles, and even climate and terrain of these people and places. These garments and accessories have fairly simple lines, with more interesting construction, using color work and cables to communicate these design elements. The colors of this collection reflect the bright colors found in textiles and art throughout the Arab world, and specifically in these locations and tribes.
