PREORDER - NEEDLEBOUND VOLUME 2 (PHYSICAL COPY)
(This is the second pre-order. Books will ship in early August 2025)
Needlebound Volume 2 arrives in a moment of digital fragility, asking what remains when platforms disappear. As the scaffolding of social media begins to splinter—bans, blackouts, algorithmic drift—fibre artists are left to consider what kinds of knowledge can survive the collapse.
This issue looks to textiles as a medium of continuity—one that holds memory, resists erasure, and builds structures for community outside of institutional or algorithmic systems. Spanning three sections—Soft Archives, Ornaments of Labour & Resistance, and Warmth of Hands, Weight of Thread—this volume gathers essays, interviews, and artwork that explore textiles as vessels of memory, resistance, and shared knowledge.
Together, these works ask how craft sustains meaning across time, and what forms of knowledge remain legible when the platforms that once held them begin to dissolve.
