Abstract
Craft is an unstable concept impacted by and contributing to wider narratives of care and progress (Latour 2008), sociological concepts of the everyday and the spectacular (Adamson 2007b), creativity and morality (Groff 2021), identity, sustainability, politics, and the ‘flat’ philosophies of new materialism (Wisnoski 2019). Fiber, textile and dress play important roles in these narratives, and this chapter will attempt to chart some of them. While it will necessarily miss many examples, the reader will hopefully discover pointers to the exciting richness and complexity of these fields over the past century.
