While I don’t know any designers from Pakistan or Pakistani diaspora off the top of my head, knitting has a deep history there! Especially in the northern areas of Pakistan where winters truly get cold, knitting sweaters and other garments was one of the big ways of being able to stay warm. Between imports becoming cheaper and I think lack of documentation of patterns (including by grandmas who swore their techniques to secrecy lol) the local wool industry became less sought after and isn’t really considered a lucrative business anymore to my knowledge. But my mom and dad and others in their generation would often speak of their mothers and grandmothers knitting garments with speed (and without patterns!) for their families.
So interesting, thank you. I’ve heard the same thing about Mum, Grandma or Aunty knitting fast and freestyle and I have a book of Folk Mittens that has a pattern for Mittens from Pakistan x
@@verylikecheryl That is so cool! It's nice to know that it's out there somewhere, I might have to take a deeper dive into knitting patterns and motifs from Pakistan sometime
My Nani was so speedy! I think once I get more confident in my design abilities I would love to release Pakistani inspired knitting patterns! Inshallah one day haha!
@@maheenbaloch96 Omg if you do I would love to see please! I've focused more on delving into sewing construction rather than knitting, but I'm always looking to learn knitting construction from others
I’m such a happy brown knitter today- beautiful to see our culture represented in the knitting scene. I found out recently that India was one of the largest exports of knitted goods to Europe during the. 50’s. There’s a huge knitting scene amongst the women in my family- most people know how to knit and knit their own clothes in Calcutta India . Knitting circles is also used as a gender equality and violence prevention work around India today- to help support women to leave and find support out of abusive relationships. Anyway- thank youuuu!
I'm from Vietnam, thank you for your sharing. Ngo Quynh is a very talented designer, she has created many patterns which are very detailed and easy to understand and, of course, easy to knit. The Ao dai is our traditional dress and actually its hard to sew so knitting the Ao dai is completely difficult, especially with the lace knitting. For me, making this dress is a huge project. Thank you for a collection with inspiration from different cultures and traditions to let me see their beauty through the stiches.
Super fun video! As a Mexican-American knitter, I often find myself searching for patterns that in some way echo traditional Mexican garb from different regions. It’s hard! Super fun seeing the different patterns that are borne out of Asian heritage and influence!
@@holaCarolina no pues por eso digo que es difícil hahaha. pero la dificultad sale en que históricamente textiles mexicanos son bordados y no tejidos iguales como los con cuales estamos trabajando. Si se encuentran diseños de rebozo pero son diseños comunes y no se puede realmente decir que los que se encuentran sean solamente diseños culturalmente mexicanos o que sean inspirados por ropa cultural. se puede encontrar aun más si usas ganchillo, pero yo todavía no e adquirido ese don!
I'm only pointing this out because it's even more fascinating than the description given in the video - Ikat fabric: to my knowledge, it's not a piece of fabric that is woven and then dyed, but the individual threads are actually dyed BEFORE they are woven together - making it a crazy puzzle to assemble and (to my untrained eyes) it seems like a miracle that all the dyed parts line up in the end to make perfect patterns!! Sincerely, a weaver (who does NOT do ikat weaving... yet)
The first thing I thought of when I saw that popular “porcelain sweater” by LeKnit was “…that’s not what it looks like!” Ofc I was thinking of the white and blue Chinese bowls that are at everyone’s mom’s house. I wish someone would make a “Chinese porcelain sweater!”
As someone who studies textile handcraft and comes from a Northern European country with a rich knitting heritage, I found this insight into knits inspired by traditional garments of cultures that are very different from mine super interesting. I also found a couple of patterns that I would like to try. Thank you!
Yeah! This is so awesome. Obviously, we love the Scandinavian and European knitwear designers and aesthetic but it's awesome to see the Asian designers and silhouettes be highlighted as well! I've knit the durumagi and really want to knit the tartan baeja but I still have a mental block when it comes to seeking 😬
Susan's Family has a lot of Chinese motif and clothing inspired patterns. They are all crochet BUT they are all free. I think they are gorgeous and definitely worth checking out.
that ao dai is just *chef's kiss* amazing. i've also been thinking a lot about traditional/historical chinese clothing *but make it knitting* in the past year, so love this video! there are a few chinese porcelain inspired patterns that are on my to knit list--one by athena liu and another by thepetiteknitter (weichien)--which are both fun!
🤩 The 한복 ones are 🔥They are on my loooong To Knit queue, but like gold at the end of a rainbow, they are motivating me to get through my planned knits faster! 😁 Can't wait to see your FOs! I know they're gonna be RAD!
Thanks so much for an amazing video. Learning more about the inspiration for these patterns was amazing. Understanding the reason for certain colours used, flower patterns etc was so interesting. It's also great to learn about other designs.
What a wonderful idea for a video. I loved learning about the different types of garments and how they were translated or adapted into knitting patterns.
So fascinating, thank you, Jenny. There’s quite a lot of tabi sock patterns on Ravelry. I have knit the Jun socks by Yucca. I wear them with my Birkenstocks. Also am currently wearing the Flores sweater by Eri Shimizu. One of my most worn and favourite sweaters. I think her designs are exquisite ❤ I also think Karoline of Aegyo Knit is married to a Korean and that her Goreum bag is inspired by that complicated hanbok knot? Also have a book of Kimono designs by Vicki Square. I don’t know if she has any connections to Japan but she does write about the history and is inspired by authentic Japanese garments. It’s a really interesting book x
I love the appreciation for Asian influenced patterns. I am so drawn to Korean designers. Thanks for the work on finding more traditional inspired patterns ❤
so interesting/inspiring. I really enjoy these type of podcasts. Looking forward to seeing which pattern you can't resist (hopefully its the plaid tie vest with the fuzzy armholes, super cute)
Wow!!! What an incredible display of beautiful patterns. The nine nights shawl is stunning and the Ao dai diamond is simply spectacular!!!! Thanks for sharing these amazing patterns. ♥️
That was such an interesting and unique video! I really appreciate all the effort that you put into making it. I also thought of tabi socks, which are part of japanese traditional wear but have had a trendy moment recently 😅 There's lots of patterns on ravelry by non-japanese people, but the designer Yucca has a few tabi sock patterns :)
Love your pattern choices. It’s given me some inspiration for cool weather knitting. I love the thought of using a fuzzy yarn to mimic fur on the sleeve and neckline. I have knit angora into cuffs on a little fisherman baby cardigan with great effect. ❤
Vicki Square has a really good book of knitting patterns inspired by different types of kimono and their historical and cultural importance. It's very cool and contains lots of information about the kimono styles she's referencing
1. The only Greek patterns I can find on ravelry are stereotypical ancient Greece stuff and I'm talking about amigurumi or warrior stuff....not functional clothing 🙄. At least found some Greek designers I wasn't aware of. 2. Beautiful idea of a video. I think it is important as knitters of this generation to keep our traditions alive. 3. It is so fascinating to me that with the same yarns... brand and color we can create clothing from many different cultures. That can be a nice idea for a knitalong too. Like we all use the same yarn and color and make a piece of our cultures clothing. Thank you for the rabbit hole idea I was trying too find one !! 😂
This is one of my very favorite knit podcast episodes. I really appreciate the topic, the info, and the effort put in to put this together. I learned a ton from this episode. Thanks so much!
Thanks for this. I really appreciate you giving a voice to designers that we normally don't see on RUclips. I hate the ones where people are like 20 sweaters to knit this fall and it's 3 designers that we all know about already. Also, I really just love a pattern round-up video. I've added some to my favroites.
I'm so glad you brought up Sedna Knitting! She was who I immediately thought of when I saw the title of this video! Her designs are so inspiring and interesting! The 두루마기 pattern is definitely a bucketlist pattern for me!
Thank you so much for putting together this great video, I’m korean/Mexican/Italian so always interested in what the world has to offer for us! I really enjoy your content, thank you ❤
Yes, enjoyed this episode immensely Jenny. Thank you for doing all the investigating for these patterns. I am always interested in other cultures. 🇨🇦🥰Sharon.
Awesome video Jenny. The designs are so beautiful. I've had my eye on the Xiao Mai for a while, just waiting for my skills to catch up to my ambition. Thank you for all the work you clearly put into this. It's so great to see a different perspective.
Great video! It was so interesting and it’s clear that you did your research and are very respectful! I really appreciate this video as a Taiwanese American knitter. Yay Asians :)
I'd love more videos like this one! I think it would be interesting to see more videos based around knits that the Western world may not be aware of, like these ones. Or maybe you could do a video about knits that suit different aesthetics like punk, romantic, or street style? I'd also love to see a continuation of this video! Not sure if I could break out the lace weight yarn myself, but I'll be stalking the pattern pages to see everyone else's!
Thank you so much for sharing all of these! I have one Korean designer to share: Okto Lee. My unknowing eyes don't see any huge influences of traditional dress in her patterns, but she has some lovely patterns. Lots of super cute vests and tops. I have knitted one of her patterns and have my eye on another one that I just need the yarn for.
Thank you for the wonderful roundup! I would potentially try to make a knit ao dai sometime, will definitely be a massive endeavor. BTW wanted to note that the Taj Mahal is not painted tiles, it's actually precious stone inlaid into marble... very very mesmerizing, you should definitely go see it!
The Xiao Mai cardi reminds me of Ming dynasty hanfu, rounded collars were a thing and the construction of sewn garments usually had sleeves in two pieces per sleeve for full length sleeves and one piece per sleeve for “cropped” sleeves. In this cardi it looks the shorter sleeve look was the goal!
안녕하세요! A few months ago I got into mosaic knitting (slip stitch colorwork technique by Barbara G. Walker) and thought traditional hanok window/door/fence ornaments (문창살) would be perfect to use for this technique and lots of patterns would fit onto small garments, like socks or spicing up a sweater sleeve ;)
Loved this concept, made me think of the Mongolian Olympic uniform that has gone viral. I would love to make that Xiao Mai coat, I actually spotted the book yesterday at my local yarn store and just thought "too hard 😵💫" ...I love the colour combinations that have been done online though...maybe...for next season ...
I recently watched a video from Belgian RUclipsr Christal LK about Japanese knitting and she talked about the history of knitting in Japan for about 10mn in one section. Apparently it came over with the Portuguese in the 16th century and some samurai took it up and even became professional knitters after the end of the shogunate (if I'm remembering correctly - I have the memory of a goldfish sooooo). The video is in French (LE TRICOT AU JAPON - Qu'est-ce que c'est + 12 patrons !), though RUclips does give you the option to turn on machine translated subtitles that aren't perfect but you can usually understand things ok enough. Some really nice finds here! being a non-Asian person though I would feel really weird knitting and wearing traditional-style garments from other cultures tho ahah I was born in Puerto Rico and there's nothing really on Ravelry from PR designers it seems. I would love to try to design and knit a jibara style top but I'm lazy so who knows, maybe one day. I know my grandma and other ancestors used to crochet and knit, but I also know that there's a lacework technique called "mundillo" that's from there. Never tried though.
i was sooo hoping that you were gonna find a knitting pattern of a filipiniana dress or a Filipino bolero, I've been trying to look for one, or even the motive designs they use in their inabel (weaving). if anyone has any luck finding patterns please share it with me. :-)
The Wacky Weave Ndebele crochet blanket by South African designer Hilda Steyn was inspired by the traditional colourful geometric designs painted by the Ndebele on their houses. They also known for their beautiful beadwork.
For Vietnam-inspired patterns you are better off doing crochet because crochet is very popular in Vietnam right now so you can find more ao dai or other viet phuc in crochet. But also Vietnamese people don’t use ravelry so everything is in one Facebook group or another 😭.
😂 I really enjoyed this! I'm new to your channel but I look forward to seeing more. Ps saw this and thought of this video so I thought I'd share: ravel.me/feng-huang--qilin

ikat blows my mind because the threads are dyed before weaving, so that when they're woven together they form the planned pattern.
