knit illuminated hoodie


Something that I do not have any of intention of steering towards, however I think this is a good example of taking knitting/knitted garments to a modern craft, incorporating modern technology.
skôn is a designed knit illuminated hoodie that changes the intensity of the light by tsomeone tugging and stretching the hood. (Designed by Paula Kassenaar in collaboration with Paula Segura Meccia at the Eindhoven University of Technology)
here is the link- you can see how it actually lights up- pretty cool!
