The story

Winter drop campaign

The brief

Polar Knit’s winter drop was three colours of the same jumper. They wanted a campaign that didn’t show a model, a mountain or a mug.

What I made

Three soft shapes in the three colours, knitted from a procedural stitch texture and resting on drifts I shaped by hand. Low sun, long shadows, and snow with enough subsurface scattering to feel like it would squeak.
