Dazy Chains is a knitting project by Hayley Mortin based in Montreal, QC.
The project is named after a concept in computing known as "daisy-chaining", by which multiple devices are wired together to transmit a signal. 'Chaining' is also a term in crochet, which usually forms the foundation of a garment. Inspired by the influence that 18th-century garment-making machines had on the first computational devices, Dazy Chains is a gentle nod to the long interwoven history of computers and textiles.
I work with both a single bed knitting machine and by hand, often combining techniques from both.
If you are interested in working on a project together, stocking some knitwear in your store or having me at a popup/art market, please email me (hello@dazychains.ca) with your proposal and intented timeline and I will get back to you.
