Themed “Animal, Vegetable, and Mineral,” this issue is chock full of projects inspired by the wonders of nature—all woven using rigid-heddle looms, pin looms, or tablet weaving. In these pages, you’ll find scarves and shawls galore, kitchen linens, and even a sweet little bento-style bag. You’ll be amazed by Peg MacMorris’s elegant Sea Slug Silken Splendor Scarf (yes, that’s right—sea slug), Jodi Ybarra’s colorful Tarahumara Corn Towels inspired by a particularly bright species of flint corn, and Greta Holmstrom’s fabulous Mount Wilson Shawl, which pays homage to the striped mountain located in Red Rock Canyon. There are also articles that explore the nature of weaving—Bobbie Irwin writes about iridescence and how one can achieve it on a rigid-heddle loom, while Robin Lynde explores the design possibilities of clasped-warp weaving. You’ll also find tips on using different types of multi-colored yarns, step-by-step illustrations for different hand-manipulation techniques, and tips on wet-finishing everyday and extra-special fabrics.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWet-Finishing Without Worry by Christina Garton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIridescence in Weaving by Bobbie Irwin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeauty in Soil by Christina Garton\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClasped-Warp Weaving by Robin Lynde\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\nProjects:\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eButterfly Wings Scarf by Sara Goldenberg White (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLadybug Picnic Placemats by Anu Bhatia (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Bandit by Deborah Bagley (Pin Loom)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlumage Scarf by Angela Tong (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShark Mittens by Margaret Stump (Pin Loom)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSnowy Owl Runner by Jenny Sennott (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreen Pastures Scarf by Robin Lynde (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSea Slug Silken Splendor Scarf by Peg MacMorris (Rigid Heddle)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Lettuce Wrap by Sara C.

Ultimately unsuccessful, the company tried to counteract changes in consumer preference for ‘new’ textiles and the impact of globalisation. In Japan the designation of Important Intangible Cultural Property highlights vulnerable crafts, such as shifu, paper textiles. Complex techniques that were formerly widespread now rely on a handful of specialists to maintain skills. Eleanor Burkett has been fascinated by shifu for many years and introduces us to the techniques. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are two articles about traditional handweaving in India, the production of Jamalkalam rugs in southern India and the handwoven cloth tradition which falls within the broad term khadi. Undermined by British industrialisation in the nineteenth century, handweaving was once a mainstay of rural economies and handspun, handwoven cloth became symbolic of Independence. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor dyers there is a novel suggestion – use hair dyes! Easy to obtain and, as Jan Richardson shows, capable of producing exciting results. And who could resist Heather Galindo’s popsicle swatches?

Often pigeon-holed as craft (practical, utilitarian), weave can also be art (creative, illustrative). A Fine Arts student, she was surprised and pleased to have her weaving accepted for a contemporary art exhibition, and concludes that a weaver is both a craftsperson and an artist free to communicate ideas through weave.

The importance of role models can’t be overestimated, especially for emerging makers. As a new graduate over thirty years ago, I was fortunate to benefit from talented teachers and advocates whose belief in my ability far outstretched my own; Chrissie White and Mary Schoeser are familiar names in the textile world, but our community is peppered with such pioneers whose vision and tenacity have impacted society beyond their immediate circle. In this issue, we spotlight these unsung heroes: Jenny Tiramani, the principal of the School of Historic Dress, whose force of personality galvanised a team of enthusiasts to create a world-leading institution. Dan Driscoll, the founder of The Anou, developed a computer system based on pictograms to give illiterate artisans in Morocco agency over selling their work to a global audience. The founders of NGOs in Kutch, India, who have worked tirelessly for decades to elevate and preserve the region’s unique crafts and eliminate exploitation. Others, such as Her Majesty Queen Azizh of Malaysia’s Royal Pahang Weaving prison project, use their privileged platform to benefit others. We celebrate these individuals whose tenacity has turned their passion to good use. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOver the last decade, we have seen entrepreneurs and influencers take centre stage as the monetising of crafts has come to represent success in our community. Some early adopters have garnered a large following, as described by Beth Wingarder in her article Historic Clothing Come Back and we thank them for enriching our lives. It is a seductive ideology that declares anyone and everyone can achieve work-life balance by pumping their passion for profit. The trend exacerbated by the cost of living crisis, accessibility of platforms such as Etsy and Folksy, the romanticised version of the life of craftspeople portrayed on Instagram and the minimal financial outlay needed to initiate textile crafts. This is only part of the story. The labour innate to many textile crafts conflicts with the profit motive, killing the joy and leaving makers working long hours to fulfill orders for little remuneration. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI am inspired by Dr. Christine Millar, who states that sewing as a hobby allows her to engage in art on her terms. The idea that something beautiful only has value once sold makes me question the value our society places on making. I leave you with some food for thought – can textile crafts have value solely because they give us pleasure, define our identity, and make us feel fulfilled, or do we have to register a domain name every time we start a new knitting project?

One of my lasting impressions from this Selvedge tour of India is how inspiring it is to see a country embracing a new epoch that, with government support, has shaken off the shackles of the past. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis attitude is reflected worldwide in communities previously oppressed by colonial powers, who suffered the barbaric practice of enslavement, cruel segregationist policies and institutionalised racism but are now emancipated, self-confident, and taking centre stage. These makers previously excluded from the European canon are embracing ancestral knowledge, regional materials, and craft practices, transforming them into sustainable practices born out of a desire for a future based on social justice. In this issue, Annebella Pollen describes Sonya Clark’s unravelling of the Confederate Battle flag as a symbolic dismantling of white supremacy. African fashion designers Daniel Olantunji and Imane Ayissi reimagine local materials and ancestral techniques to fashion garments that demonstrate craft skills long dismissed in Europe. Their energy and creativity are driving global society. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tourism industry in India acknowledges a comprehensive view of culture, free from the class constraints that limit our vision in the UK. Unlike the UK, India has ratified the UNESCO Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage, a point Jane Audas underlines in her review of Making Mischief at Compton Verney. This convention encourages a broader view of cultural heritage, including, as we enjoyed on our trip, a Kathakali dance performance in Kerala and the Amber Fort in Jaipur.

This issue we look at the 50th anniversary of the Battle at Versailles – the evening a sociocultural shift took place that resonates today. The editorial examines the past iterations of Savoir-faire found in irresistible flea market finds. We rubbed shoulders with the dealers on Sunday morning at Porte de Clignancourt, picking up some soft but sturdy vintage linen so appealing to contemporary designers, French slow fashion brand École de Curiosités, Camiceria Eri bespoke shirt-makers and Sasaki-Yohinten from Japan, and New York-based something in the air, as well as the Selvedge team. We venture north to Méru and discover the Musée de la Nacre (Mother of Pearl) housed in an impressive nineteenth-century former button factory. Here we learn that by 1900 shells were of greater value than pearls - and world markets were using the shells for cutlery handles, inlay work and millions of beautiful buttons, some of which made their way onto the First Nation blankets and the working dress of the Pearlies in the East End of London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eContinuing our endeavour, we root around Catherine Legrand's Parisian Pied-à-terre and find it packed with textile treasures from around the world collected during the lifetime of a true adventurer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional savoir-faire, a treasure trove of textile expertise, is diligently kept alive by the petites mains; such as the pleater Karen Grigorian, who inherited skills from the 19th-century modiste and draws inspiration from 20th-century Autochromes from the Salon du Gout Francais – Nadia Albertini takes us behind the scenes at his atelier. Looking to the future once again French savoir-faire is leading the fashion world with new legislation Loi AGEL (Loi Anti-gaspillage pour une encomie curculaire) requiring every product imported into France to be accompanied by a passport which provides compulsory sustainability and circularity information for the item - bravo!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, I hope we have captured a certain je ne sais quoi for you to enjoy.

I want to take this opportunity to thank my team for going above and beyond in putting the magazine together in my absence, to Katerina, Catherine, Florencia, Kate, and Ella – without your dedication; this issue simply would not have been possible. I also want to thank Param Pandya and Ravi Ramswami in India and all of the hundreds of artisans, designers, and curators from Ladakh to Kerala who invited us into their homes and hearts – your warmth and hospitality will stay with us forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLeading a tour has highlighted the importance of teamwork, and in this issue, we focus on working hand-in-hand with others. For instance, the special relationship between teacher and student is explored in Nicola Miles’s article about her teacher and mentor, Lou Taylor. In this article, Taylor describes the pleasure of watching students encounter historic garments for the first time. In another story, we discover how Nike Davies-Okundaye balances the pleasure of solitary work and what she gains from sharing her skills by burning the midnight oil!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSuccessful collaborations come in many forms and involve different levels of cooperation. Madrid-based Milliners Maleza joined forces with Claudy Jongstra in her LOADS project – the resulting hats were the outcome of discrete contributions from both designers. Similarly, when designer Odette Blum invited 27 artists to respond to a theme, she gave them a free hand – the project culminated in a book that celebrates their different visions. As Elizabeth King, Head of Costume Production at the Royal Opera House in London, explains, collaborations with more rigid external parameters require more skilled negotiations. Yet, when costume designer Sandy Powell realised a director’s vision, ultimate insight, intuition, and even greater communication were needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring my time in India, I came face-to-face with collaborations between artisans and designers where both parties were equally respected. From this position of strength, they could overcome the challenges facing the craft community. The information age has brought new opportunities and the promise of a better quality of life but it also threatens the survival of the intangible cultural heritage of hand work. Thao Phuong shares her account of how artisan Phan Thi Thuan navigates the symbiotic relationship between tourists and craft in Vietnam by contributing to the greater interest in lotus-silk weaving and deftly demonstrating how crafts can survive hand in hand with tourism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRamesh Menon of Save the Loom warns in Vinita Makhija’s article “Hope for Handloom” about “handmade being positioned on the premise of charity.” He notes, “Most who venture to support continue to play this card, damaging the sector. Handmade is the ultimate luxury and needs to be positioned and marketed in that realm.” Views shared by Madhu Vaishnav of Saheli Women, a co-operative based in Rajasthan. In a round-table conversation, Makhaja’s panel contributed insights into how technology can be used in tandem with the craft sector for mutual benefit.

You control the dye but not the result. It’s like controlled chaos, a surprise party in every vat.” Such a boldly colourful assertion prompted me to question what it is it about resist dyeing that makes it irresistible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhen Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama brought vibrant hand-painted palampores back from India in 1498, Europeans, used to humble wool, linen, and hemp, were mesmerised. This was the beginning of a violent trade that climaxed 100 years later with the establishment of various “East India Companies” and the peaking of the “calico craze,” in the late 17th century. So, is it the spectrum available via a mordant-and-resist sequence that makes resist dyeing irresistible?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRemember, indigo is a pigment dye, impossible to apply to the surface of cloth using a brush or a block. So, to achieve a blue and white design, it is necessary to create a mechanical or chemical resist and submerge the cloth in a dye bath. In her article “True Blue,” Liz Hoggard uncovers contemporary brands mastering the techniques to produce slow fashion favourites. Is it an abundance of the world’s favourite colour combinations that makes resist dye irresistible?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHuman beings are hard-wired to find patterns everywhere. Patterns created through resist dyeing are found all over the world, and from intricate multi-coloured ikat in Uzbekistan and the 16-stage process used to create Ajrak in Gujarat. Is it the place it holds in much of humanity’s intangible cultural heritage that makes resist dyeing irresistible?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2024 is the International Year of Batik, see batikinternational.com for details, and in this issue, collector Rudolf Smend explains why he is drawn to the apex of the craft practices in Indonesia.
