Interpretations Vol. 6 is another magical and heartfelt collaboration between Joji Locatelli and Veera Välimäki. Like each Volume before, the 6th Volume includes six themes, six words with two designs inspired by each word, showing a personal take on each of these themes.
This year the photo shoot was set in charming Barcelona and we had the honor to have Jonna Hietala taking all the pictures for this book.

This shawl is an irregular triangle that grows sideways. You start at the skinny tip (the white end on my sample) and you make increases at a central spine to make it wider and wider.
Using the word Scale as my inspiration, I played with the stitch pattern, keeping the same motif but making it larger and larger as the shawl grows. I also played with color… Since the first word that came to my mind when I thought of Scale was ‘Grayscale’!
