Sunspots Letterpress Text

For our knit print collaboration Katie Prescott of Woodshed Press was tasked with using wood type to represent the text of the pattern.

The full collaboration includes a knit swatch by @bookish_knitter completed pre-pandemic (not for sale), an etched copper plate (not for sale) and the resulting Intaglio print completed by me mid-pandemic, the wood type print by Katie printed this winter, and the final piece a graphic print using metal ornaments by @tina.a.art of @arquoisepress that represents the pattern chart.

You’ll be able to see the Sunspots collaboration at the Craft Council of Newfoundland and Labrador this spring.
