I totally adore the way the wool is used to look like a vein on the heart as it is so delicate. I also HEART the [knitted brain](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arty-knitwear) - I think it would look really cool on a knitted cardigan collar. On that note, I am totally in love with the pom pom outfit. Worth a mention too, from her portfolio, is the series of [phallic-shaped cacti](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sterling-silver-penis-pen) entitled ‘Viagra’. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.3/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Knitted Arts:** The use of knitted materials in artistic creations presents opportunities for unique and innovative designs. - **Organic-inspired Art:** Artworks featuring organic shapes and forms, such as knitted organs, offer a fresh and captivating artistic perspective. - **Humorous Artistic Creations:** Artworks that incorporate humor, like the phallic-shaped cacti series, have the potential to engage viewers and provoke conversations. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Design:** The art and design industry can explore the use of knitted materials and organic-inspired art to create visually striking and thought-provoking pieces. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry could experiment with incorporating knitted organs into garments, offering a unique and playful twist on traditional designs. - **Home Decor:** The home decor industry can explore incorporating knitted organ-inspired sculptures or accessories to bring a whimsical touch to interior spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Health Object Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/out-of-orifice.md) - [Anatomical Plush Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-skull-with-hidden-organs.md) - [Educational Anatomy Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-heart-with-hidden-cells.md) - [Human Hair-Made Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/range-of-pots.md) - [Intricate Fiber Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/threadwork-women-redefining-fiber-arts.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Felt-Made Novelty Shops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bourdon-street-chippy.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Knitted New York Subways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/straphangers-lounge.md)
