## About

```text
At S.S. Battu Hosiery, I developed seasonal knitwear designs from initial sketches into physical prototypes based on market trends. I managed the design-to-sample pipeline, including sample fittings and garment construction refinements.

At R.D. Knitwears, I created mood boards, color stories, and fabric swatch books for seasonal collections. My experience also includes circular and hand-flat knitting, knit structure development, and apparel design internships at Octave Apparels and Amani International.
