Sleik-zine is an experimental knitting pattern manual that tells in an untraditional way with words and pictures how to knit so-called “sleik” mouths to decorate old jumpers.
The information is put up in a clear and visual way to encourage anyone, also un-experienced knitters, to try out the knitting pattern. The pictures are in continental knitting style (not the British style).
The project goes under the name #sleikmake and focuses on getting people to craft and upcycle their old clothes themselves or with help from knitter friends.
The manual is a collaboration between knit artist Ýrúrarí (yrurari.com) and graphic designer Greta Thorkels (gretathorkels.net) both based in Iceland.
The manual is 30 pages, international A5 size, first printed in USA February 2019 and now for sale as a online pdf to print at home.
