아프리카 직물 문양을 응용한 니트디자인 : 컬러 니트 자카드를 응용하여

Abstract

This study aims to develop knitted ware design to meet desire to express diversity in the modem fashion design so that we designed knitted ware by applying african geometric pattern and color to suggest new knitted ware design. We collect data about african texture pattern through technical books, publications, internet, and preceding research and visit and investigate the African museum. We investigate knitted Jacquard texture through preceding research and collect sample and data which is insufficient in the data source The conclusions in this study are summarized as follows: First, African textile pattern is formulated with animism based on their religious view of art for a basis and African regards nature like animal and plant as a motive and interprets nature in the abstract so that they can create symbolized geometric features that constitute African texture pattern. Those patterns is composed of extremely geometric figures so that they are fit to apply for color jacquad knit design. Second, color knitted jacquad can be distinguished by knitting method and status of knitting as 7 kinds of techniques such as Nomal, Bird'eye, Floating, Tubular, Ladder's back, Blister, Transfer Jacquard, and as a result of preceding research and knitting texture directly, jacquard technique makes different texture under same condition like consistent spinning rate and same crochet hook. Third, Bird'eye Jacquard used generally to make knitted ware and Ladder's back Jacquard, Tubular Jacquard used to make knitted ware light are fit to apply them to 7GG and 12GG machines. We design a cloak as a outer garment, a coat shaped like one-piece dress and a coat with hood by using Tubular Jacquard which can make thick texture and design a jacket, a skirt and a one- piece dress by using Bird'eye Jacquard, we make a light and flimsy one-piece dress by using Ladder's back Jacquard. Fourth, we apply the contrast of 4〜6 color and line and the contrast of texture and raw material to jacquard in order to emphasize texture property and visual property.
