📢Call for participants📢 The Icon Textile Group AGM will be held online on June 19th 2024, with a Graduate Research Exchange taking place during the meeting. icon.org.uk/events/textile…
Looking into the Beehive brand I came across this blog from 10 years ago about #hand-knitting during WWI. Interesting mention of Marjory Tillotson who I've written about before and her sister Muriel. barbaraknitsagain.blogspot.com/2014/05/the-ea… #knittinghistory
Personally I've always thought that knitting benefits from collaboration between ppl. The craft does best when we pool knowledge and skill; when we open up and acknowledge the debt we owe to generations past.

Colours of yarn can be as much a part of cultural heritage and identity as the dress and textiles that yarn is used for, as distinctive as language, food, music and much else more typically associated with culture. #knittinghistory #knitting #textilehistory

Haapsalu Lace Centre (Haapsalu Pitsikeskus) officially opened its doors on 1 February 2014. Today marks the 10th anniversary of this local institution which plays an important role in preserving and promoting lace knitting as heritage craft in #Haapsalu, Estonia.
@KnitHistForum conference is off to a fascinating start with Museum of London expert Beatrice Behlen talking about the infamous knitted blue silk waistcoat (said to have been) worn on the scaffold by Charles 1 at his execution.
