북유럽 전통 니트 문양을 활용한 트랜스포머블(Transformable) 니트 디자인 연구

Abstract

The objective of the study is to propose diverse knitwear designs by expanding the scope ofthe use and application of knit fabric. The study looked into diversifying the knitwear designs byusing different types of zippers and with the combination of the diversity given by the zipperused in attachable and detachable method and the traditional North European knit patterns. Oneway of contributing to the diversity of fashion design is to use the zipper, as it can be implementedas an attachable and detachable fastening system. Also, the combination of NorthEuropean traditional knit patterns with knit fabric can create a new and unique knit styling. Thecontent of the research focuses on the history and definition of North European traditional knitwearbased on the analysis of theoretical background, types, and characteristics of the knitpatterns. Case studies were observed to show the application of knit patterns. The methods ofthe study used are preceding research along with research, collection, analysis of data, informationfrom Korean and foreign literature, and Internet websites. During knitwear production,the two types of zippers were used in combination with four traditional Northern European knitwearAran, Fair Isle, Nordic, and Ropy. The knitting techniques applied in the process were cablefisherman (5GG, SES 124CS) and Tubular Jacquard (3GG, 7GG, SES 122CS) for knitting machinery,and the technique of whole garment for hand knitting.
