JingWoo

Inside Designer’s Mind JingWoo means mirror house in Mandarin and is inspired by geometric origami squares. The rectangular shawl uses two basic stitches, knits and purls, in a clever way. The result is a 3-dimensional origami square that resembles symmetry and reflection in a mirror house. This piece is a fun and relaxing knit for anyone who enjoys creating fascinating fabric with simple stitches.
