Sonia Rykiel's Paris Fashion Week Show is a knitting sensation

sonia rykiel.jpgIf any more proof was needed that knitting is drop-dead cool, it doesn't get much cooler than the runway at Paris Fashion Week. And that's where this fabulous 'incomplete' garment, with giant knitting needles, went on show last night. It's part of a couture collection by Sonia Rykiel. The designer, who is known for her quirky and whimsical take on style, showed the dress alongside many other pieces a hand-crafted inspiration, including a series of pearl beaded tops. One model even appeared clutching a spooky rag doll as fashion and craft collided on the catwalk. I'd love to see more where that came from!
