Freelance Graphic Designer : Kids' Artisanal Folk Art Knitwear (Urgent)
Freelance Textile & Graphic Designer Wanted: Kids' Artisanal Folk Art Knitwear (Urgent)
We are seeking a talented freelance textile or graphic designer to create digital artwork for a premium children's capsule collection consisting of 5 flat-knit jacquard sweaters .
The ideal candidate must deeply understand an eclectic, artisanal design language rooted in naïve folk art and playful maximalism . This project is urgent, and we need someone who can translate organic, hand-drawn warmth into technical, production-ready digital files for children's knitwear.
🎨 Design Direction & Aesthetic
- Theme : Playful maximalism, whimsical storytelling, and naive folk art elements
- Target Demographic : Premium kidswear (fun, vibrant, yet sophisticated layouts).
- Motifs : Asymmetrical floral layouts, organic squiggles, hearts, spirals, and raw geometric borders scaled perfectly for children's panel sizes.
- Execution : Initial conceptual sketching by hand is highly preferred to maintain a raw, human, and imperfectly beautiful feel.
- Jacquard Optimization : The artwork must be designed with texturing and stitch translation in mind. You must understand how flat color shapes translate into knit structures.
- Knit Gauge : 12G
- Final Deliverables : Fully digitized, high-resolution, layered artwork (AI, PSD, or specialized knit software formats) mapped out for front, back, and sleeve panels.
- Clear Repeats/Placement : Production-ready placement prints or seamless repeats optimized for kid-sized knit setups.
- Scope : 5 complete sweater artwork layouts.
- Timeline : Immediate start. This is an extremely urgent requirement with a fast-tracked deadline for the final digitized handovers.
- Your updated CV .
- A link to your Portfolio , specifically highlighting any folk art, hand-sketched illustrations, kidswear, or engineered knit/jacquard designs.
- Your earliest availability to start.
