Forming is a playful accessory worked in one-colour brioche. Colourful abstract shapes are created by knitting increases and decreases, partially combined with the intarsia technique. The shapes transform in a modular way: knitted in both vertical and horizontal direction.

Forming is fun to knit, because every shape varies and is created slightly different by knitting increases as well as decreases, German short rows and the intarsia technique.
