Catalogue Note
"The patterns I use are...ones I come upon in knitting books, papers like Brigitte [a German women's magazine] and designs for tapestries, fabrics, etc. In fact the meaning of the concept ‘pattern’ is the model to be copied. These knitted pictures, then, differ from conventional iconography. If I knit a garment or sweater [with] the hammer and sickle, for instance, there is a depreciation of the ideology, bound up in identifying the logos for product propaganda and ideological propaganda." - Rosemarie Trockel
