Just when you thought you had read them all, here comes another book on knitting. This one however has a unique approach. Instead of listing quirky artists and modish projects, In the Loop unravels knitting through disciplines as different from each other as taxonomy, psychoanalysis, history and literature (more precisely 'knit lit'). Each of the contributors of the book, whether they are artists, tapestry maker, scholars, costume designer or fashion designers, is challenging any expectation and perspectives we might have on knitting.
The book is divided into four main sections: Rethinking Knitting, Narrative Knits, Site and Sight: Activist Knitting and Progress: Looking Back. . .
