From zero to infinity“By striving to do the impossible man has always achieved what is possible.”

– Mikhail Bakunin

This book showcases the final collections of knitwear design students from Institute of Textiles and Clothing, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. All these collections, reflecting the uniqueness and passion of design, are the combined efforts of a group of yarn suppliers, knitwear producers, the teaching team and students.

Despite the tough circumstance we are facing this year, we overcome the difficulties and present the collections successfully, making something impossible to possible, from nothing to everything.

‘This is not a studio, but a place where great designs come to life.’

The Seeker Journey“A girl who fights for her dreams and future, starts the journey without hesitation by light clothes and luggage.”

Thank you for your support “The Institute of Textiles and Clothing would like to say thank you to the following companies for their contribution towards the knitwear graduation collections this year. We hope that the knitwear industry can continuously provide support to ITC and nurture the high-caliber knitwear designers with creative talents and global perspective.”BA (Honours)

Scheme in Fashion and Textiles Knitwear Design and Technology SpecialismKnitwear Design and Technology, in which students are trained to become competent in the highly specialised design profession. The essence of the training delivered lies in the merging of technology with design. Technology forms a solid foundation on which design skills are built. In this respect, yarn technology and knitting technology are two major areas that support and enrich the design curriculum. Design is the main stream in this specialism. The technological element of this specialism distinguishes knitwear designers from fashion designers. For the training of tomorrow’s knitwear designers, valuable advice, close collaboration and earnest support from the industry are essential factors. We sincerely invite you to support Knitwear Student Development (e.g. attending overseas trade fairs, summer school and study tour etc.) of Institute of Textiles and Clothing.
