A very different and lovely project I’ve been working on lately. Thank you Eliza for letting me share your story.
🧶 🧶 🧶
Eliza came to my studio with a pile of knitted triangles, she told me how her grandmother had always knitted for them as children, but when she developed dementia she began just knitting triangles. All shapes and sizes. She had had an idea for a long time to turn these into a blanket that she could give to her mother, which could eventually be passed down the family. The idea really struck a chord with me and I found this such a touching tribute and a lovely way to preserve each stitch her grandmother had lovingly made.
It was such a joyful project to work on, taking each shape and piecing them together using her grandmothers yarn. Little fragments of time. Whilst I watched this blanket grow it made me think about these three women, about the comfort the blanket would bring, about the nature of textiles and their ability to connect us and hold memories, tell stories. I’ve been thinking a lot about how these textile processes are steeped in domesticity and femininity, but how powerful this is and how they can be so much more. Because these crafts were and still are carried out at home they are still frequently devalued as ‘hobbies’ rather than seen as an art form.
I hope the blanket brings joy and comfort 🤍
