  5. 🧵 People often ask me, how they could test, if they like #stitching without having learnt #embroidery. I recommend #intuitiveStitching, it's like #doodles with a needle and you see quick success. If you like it, you then can start to learn simple stitches. Just be wild and play like a child!

  11. Vt Digger: ‘Craftivism’ makes a comeback as local knitters spin yarns about ICE resistance. “Knitted red hats have become a form of silent protest for those using handmade crafts as a form of political engagement in opposition to federal immigration policies.”

  16. My spouse is a sewist. Everything in this pile she made in the last 3 years. I’m sooo glad she hasn’t gotten into fast fashion 🫠 #TextileArts #Sewing

  17. HEY!
    Look at this cool animation about knitting and how it affects our emotional state.

    This is a cool bit of animation and just the kind of inspiration we need for boxing day.

  18. I've been trying to learn more about the history/origins of #NeedleFelting (making three dimensional objects with wool by tucking or "felting" the fibers together with a needle, often barbed for the purpose).
    Any #TextileHistory wizzes or #historian who knows more about this?
    It seems so new, but why?

  19. Hackaday: The 555 As You’ve Never Seen It: In Textile!. “The Diné (aka Navajo) people have been using their weaving as trade goods at least since European contact, and probably long before. They’ve never shied from adopting innovation: churro sheep from the Spanish in the 17th century, aniline dies in the 19th, and in the 20th and 21st… integrated circuits?”

  22. I deleted all my social & messaging apps when I traveled to the UK to speak at the Royal School of Needlework in August and I'm just getting back now.

    It was such a great trip and conference! I learned so much about textile arts from all over the world!

    Here's a few pics.

  27. I just had a series of conversations where I learned Home Economics classes are apparently not a universal experience for my peers. I think maybe it's part of why I've had such a hard time living with folks, because I thought we all had the same education on basic life-skills, and I was the only one who gave enough of a rip to wash the dishes the right way.

    I also didn't know it was considered regressive (when it was considered at all), as I thought it was part of an initiative to make sure folks knew how to do basic life-skills, regardless of gender.

    This video definitely was educational for me:

  32. Scored a really cool find at the thrift store yesterday - a 75x80cm crocheted Virgin Mary in a frame - for $15! I can feel the finger and wrist pain of whoever made it just by looking at it. There is no way I was letting her go anywhere, but to a house that fully appreciates the craft (not so much the lore though)!

  37. 🧵 Read the alt texts of the photos above about the #yarn's history. Here you can learn more about the history of this "more glossy than silk" patent: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayon

    This #emboidery #floss was a hype since 1905/1910 ... and we can imagine that some of the governesses who had the misfortune to be on board, used it for #embroideries in the luxury rooms of the #Titanic.
