‘Knitted Armour Dress’ is a hand-crafted project that reflects the slow rhythm of making and the beauty of textiles. Using traditional knitting techniques, the work is inspired by the protection of mother love, transforming fabric into armour patterns. The 'armour' is not only about literal protection, but also embodies the identity of mother love and its resilience. Each stitch becomes a record of care, healing and warmth, carrying personal memory and highlighting the unique connection between storytelling and knitting.
