Flowing Curves Overshot Generator

Spring / Summer 2020

Spring / Summer 2020

Project Overview

• The web version of the generator.
• Git repository (GitHub)

This project started as just a quick tool I hacked to help me design the Ozone Safety Vest [project link]. I wanted a leaf-like, freeform overshot pattern on the body and I felt that I needed a way to quickly visualize the pattern possibilities in order to design the threading and some basic treadling combinations.

Credits/Reference

• Article on creating flowing curves in overshot - Bonnie Inouye - how I got started with the improvisational aspect of overshot.
• Handweaver’s Pattern Directory - Anne Dixon - where I got the original “leaf” overshot draft that started this all.
• The Processing Foundation and p5.js
