Transcript excerpt

My name is Yitai and I'm a self taught fashion designer and this is day six of me showcasing my designs. This is the hand crochet hoodie I designed and instead of a traditional hoodie, I wanted to reimagine it with different textures. My intention with this design was to make a basic piece of clothing a little bit more interesting and fun. No I think a good hoodie is based around three things, design, material, and fitting. So I added rank crochet granny squares to the hood, the kangaroo pocket, and the hem giving it more texture and dimension. It's also made from 100% cotton. It's designed in a crop fit no it sits right at your waist giving it a more intentional and elevated silhouette.
