This was a 4th-year project that came out of an open brief: Teach/explain something difficult. I was into knitting at the time and found a lot of knitting recipes to be strenuous to understand. I decided to make an interactive knitting recipe, that would make the knitting process easier and did this by piggybacking on an existing business: Witre Design.
In my proposal, I added functionality that common recipes do not offer. Through helping tools, such as process photos, videos, and notation explanations this recipe facilitates a better experience for both novice and expert knitters. I user-tested it with knitters, and got really good feedback:
“This answers all my knitting recipe needs!"
"These functionalities target the things that annoy me with normal recipes. I love it.”
Functionalities:
- recipe altered after size
- help modes for beginner to novice users
- step-by-step photos
- video tutorials
- zoom option
- bookmark function
- notepad
