New books on textiles from many countries…………… Details in the shop of the Selvedge magazine.
“Textiles have always travelled and hold the stories of these migrations in its structure. Long before the language of trade agreements and tariffs, cloth moved quietly across continents — carried by camel caravans, folded into bundles that bore not only fibre but culture, knowledge and exchange. Silk followed ancient routes from East to West, wool crossed seas and borders, and indigo, cotton and linen shaped economies as much as wardrobes” .
