[Lesson 20] Chunky Knit

Let’s continue learning how to render texture, and in this lesson, you’ll see how to create chunky knit. This is also super easy and quick to render, besides, it’s quite similar to the light jersey 😉

Before Starting

To have a perfect learning-practice day, make sure you are ready:

  1. Gather all your materials, and set them in your favorite place to work with watercolors. Check out the materials list for this lesson below the video.
  2. You can use a square piece of paper like me, or you can use any kind of shape and size.
  3. Determine the colors you want for the fabric.
  4. Put on your earbuds with your favorite music on, and now you’re ready!

Let’s start!

Chunky Knit

Watercolor paper: I used 12cmx12cm 180grs/m2
