ABSTRACT
Slow fashion is a practice that aims to recapture the manufacturing of the textile chain, valuing traditional crafts as means of creative design and slowing consumerism. It is a counter practice to fast fashion and it encourages learning traditional craft techniques, like knitting and crochet. This work focuses on how these traditional techniques are inserted in the current creative manufacturing practices. The creative practice used a brainstorming, the morphological chart and the Pugh method to experiment new fashion products using knitwear and circular knit waste. The results showed that the methodology can be used to develop more sustainable and innovative fashion products.
