April 23, 2024: Interview with Sasha Hyre - Teacher & Knitwear Designer
Sasha Hyre @veronaknits is a Montreal-based knitwear designer and teacher. She is known for her versatile designs that combine colours and textures, and her work has been featured in several knitting magazines and books. Island Vibes is not only a celebration of her Jamaican heritage but also a tribute to the meditative and relaxing power of knitting.
“Let this book be your guide as you knit your way through my vibrant and rhythmic world of summer knitwear, with Jamaica as your muse and the Caribbean as your backdrop.”
Island Vibes: Summer knit by Sasha Hyre, features nine patterns for summer knits: three tops, a cardigan, a shawl, a dress, a skirt, a sarong and a bag. Each piece is designed to be worn independently but can also be combined for stylish summer looks. This versatile capsule collection is designed mostly with linen, silk and cotton yarns that are perfect for warm weather. Decorative elements and techniques such as fringes, modular knitting and intarsia, are used in a modern and vibrant way.
Join us this and every Tuesday as we talk to interesting Black folks in the community, here in Montreal, across Canada and Internationally. Every Tuesday evening from 7-8.30pm on www.ckut.ca or 90.3FM
