In this Three Minutes Max video, Kelly Vaughn uses her unique talents to create a knitting pattern in Illustrator! She quickly creates a colorful sunset pattern with individual “stitches,” then creates the artwork for the main object—a tree in this case—using the lasso and eyedropper tools.
Three Minutes Max comes from a fun—yet very competitive—session at our annual CreativePro Week conference. Speakers have three minutes to wow the audience with the tip and win a prize for a lucky conference attendee.
