Course Description

In this course you will use a variety of different fibres and materials to experiment to create new and different 2D and 3D effects. You will learn to identify commonly used techniques and apply your skills and knowledge to a variety of manipulation processes. Through considered exploration you will use a variety of manipulation processes as a tool to inform your design decisions and to make modifications to achieve interesting textile outcomes.

This Unit of Competency is clustered for delivery and assessment. The other Unit of Competency in this clustered course is:

  • MSTTX3008 Select raw materials

These units are clustered for holistic delivery and assessment.
