Yet, as psychologist and avid knitter Nicole Nehrig explores in this captivating book, textile work has often been a way for women to exercise power. When their voices were silenced and other avenues were closed off to them, women used the tools they had―often a needle and thread―to seek freedom. With Her Own Hands brings together remarkable stories of women who have used textiles as a means of liberation, from an eighteenth–century Quaker boarding school that used embroidered samplers to teach girls math and geography to the Quechua weavers working to preserve and revive Incan traditions today, and from the Miao women of southern China who, in the absence of a written language, pass down their histories in elaborate "story cloths" to a midcentury British women's postal art exchange. Textiles have been a way for women to explore their intellectual capacities, seek economic independence, create community, process traumas, and convey powerful messages of self–expression and political protest. Heartfelt and deeply moving, With Her Own Hands is a celebration of women who have woven their own stories―and a testament to their resilience. — AUDIOBOOK DETAILS Purchase on Google Play Books ►► https://g.co/booksYT/AQAAAECqMilykM Language: English Publisher: Tantor Media Inc Published on: January 6, 2026 ISBN: 9798318542282 Duration: 7 hr, 45 min Genres: Crafts & Hobbies / Fiber Arts & Textiles, Crafts & Hobbies / Needlework / General, History / Social History, Social Science / Women's Studies
