Description

From booties and scarves to art and fashion, "The Culture of Knitting" addresses knitting as art, craft, design, fashion, performance and as an aspect of the everyday. Drawing on a variety of sources, including interviews with knitters from different disciplines as well as amateurs, the text breaks down hierarchical boundaries and stereotypical assumptions that have hitherto negated the academic study of knitting, and it highlights the diversity and complexity of knitting in all its guises."The Culture of Knitting" investigates not merely why knitting is so popular now, but the reasons why knitting has such longevity. By assessing the literature of knitting, manuals, patterns, social and regional histories, alongside testimonial discussions with artists, designers, craftspeople and amateurs, it offers new ways of seeing, new methods of critiquing knitting, without the constraints of disciplinary boundaries in the hope of creating an environment in which knitting can be valued, recognised and discussed. Review I gladly recommend this book not only to scholars working in visual and textile arts but also to those with interests in broad interdisciplinary treatments of culture. Turney covers a lot of ground, and the book offers copious photos as exemplars as well as thorough and thought-provoking analyses. THE Fascinating Material! TLS A suberb example of contemporary cultural analysis ... Clear, comprehensive, imaginative, innovative, theoretically challenged and grounded. Whether you are interested in fashion, textiles, design, material culture, cultural analysis or Sociology, Turney's Culture of Knitting is a work that you owe it to yourself to read. Textile: The Journal of Cloth and Culture A must-read for erudite knitting addicts. Yarn Market News Presents a thoughtful and insightful study on knitting in all its forms and socio-cultural impacts. Worn Through About the Author Jo Turney is Senior Lecturer in History and Design at the Bath School of Art and Design. She specialises in textiles and fashion as material culture.
