Textile art beyond the familiar forms

Organized around weaving, crochet, and knitting, this collection brings together 35 artists who use yarn and thread to make unconventional objects and environments. Its examples range from giant knitted sweaters to rooms filled with imagined sea creatures, showing how textile practices can move beyond familiar domestic crafts. Briefly connecting the featured work with the history of these forms, Sophia Cai’s book also considers how artists and hobbyists are expanding them today. The mix of artist profiles, creative examples, and historical context makes fiber art the subject of both hands-on traditions and contemporary experimentation.
