just the other day because I was astonished it didn't exist, which is how I got pulled into this project. I work as an apprentice vestment maker/restorer, and I also design and sew more usual clothing and do silk-shading and goldwork embroidery. I've done a little knitting, a little weaving, a little

I am an avid knitter, and fairly familiar with
Knowledge structures and procedures (just a spectator, not usually an editor!). I am interested in giving additional attention to work that is under-appreciated and/or not written about enough on Knowledge (e.g., "women's work", African-American history,

I'm a computer geek who also happens to sew. I enjoy complicated sewing patterns since sewing is sort of like a puzzle for me, and hard puzzles are more fun. I'm here since I found the articles on sewing to be lacking, and while I'm not a professional seamstress by any means I do enjoy it as a hobby.

I make a lot of my children's clothing by hand, particularly "fancy" dresses, which I love to design! Needlework has been my hobby since childhood. Although I knit and crochet from time to time, I prefer embroidery and needlepoint. As I've gotten older and my eyes aren't what they used to be so I've

For a number of years I have been interested in, and have practiced, various textile arts including tablet (or card) weaving, historical costuming, sewing, needle-tatted and bobbin lace-making and crochet. Up until recently, I maintained Web pages that were devoted to tablet weaving until I switched

Both of my grandmothers taught/supported me in crocheting as I was growing up. Since then, also learned to knit, so I could make sweaters. Haven't had time to make any sweaters yet. Still prefer crocheting, but I do both. I adore yarn and everything about these activities, looking forward to helping
785:
I am a lacemaker on a steep learning curve, and as I learn I like to add the things to
Knowledge so I can find them again later! I want to add new pages on lace and lacemakers, and other local history topics as I find things when I'm looking for lace tidbits. Familiar with other historical clothing

Hi. I've been knitting for over 30 years and have recently learnt to crochet. I've also worked on bobbin lace and am learning needle lace. I sew, embroider, cross-stitch. I'd like to help out where I can and I'm particularly interested in the Irish Fibre Arts, Irish-style knitting and lace making.

I am an academic librarian. I weave, sew, spin, embroider and am a novice at bobbin lace. I've been working on topics with a regional focus (especially

Mostly, I knit. I'm mostly self-taught, to a skill level somewhere in the vicinity of "intermediate" (but exactly where is debatable). I quilt a little, too, but am fully self-taught here and probably don't have a lot to say that hasn't already been said. And I'm teaching myself to spin.
213:
A good friend taught me to knit during Spring Break in 2003, and I've been knitting ever since. More recently I've learned how to crochet. I've been able to sew for some time—including making a peasant shirt entirely by hand—but more for utilitarian purposes than as a hobby.

I'm an academic with a specialty in nineteenth-century
British art and material culture, particularly the works of William Morris. Also a knitter, quilter, cross-stitcher, etc. Have been editing articles for a little while and now working up the courage to write them as well.

I go through phases of being more of a knitter or a crocheter but both are very special to me. I also have made one (1) patchwork quilt, and would love to have the time to do another one. I'm pretty new to
Knowledge but happy to help wherever I can make myself useful!

I am a knitter and crocheter, though I also do some sewing. I grew up quilting, a lot of my friends and family still do, I just don't have the space where I'm at now. I'm a library school student, and I'm really interested in expanding the scope and articles in the

I'm a published writer, award-winning editor, and avid crocheter. I also sew a bit and have tried my hand at cross stitch and embroidery. My first book of crochet patterns will be out soon, though I have published a few patterns here and there.

I grew up surrounded by textile arts- my mom spins, knits, sews, quilts, dyes, and weaves (to name a few) I've been a knitter for years, and have a great interest in the field... I would love to contribute the best I can!

I'm a knitter & a spinner, and am interested in a higher quality of articles surrounding the textile arts on

I am very interested in textiles and work with many different textiles, including recycling of used textiles such as denim from old jeans and jackets. I love to quilt, knit, crochet, and create collages.
