Rabbitat (stitching details)

Posted on April 27, 2012 by Salley Mavor

The Rabbitat film has been viewed over 4000 times (update: 18,000 in November 2015) since it was posted on Vimeo, 9 months ago! To celebrate, I’ve put together a selection of process photos, most of which have not been posted before.

Salley – how do we pass this on? How do we make sure that a “next generation” knows this skill and craftsmanship? Do you teach? Maybe you could do a series of video courses . . just a small sample of stitches, how to, and the creative process. This is a treasure too great to lose!

  Carol,
  I appreciate your concern for passing on handowrk skills to the next generation. Waldorf Schools do a wonderful job of this. And it seems that there’s a renewed interest in knitting and embroidery among the young. As for your suggestion of teaching via videos or otherwise– sharing on this blog is as much as I can do. As it is, I don’t spend as much time as I’d like on my artwork. Got to get back to that needle and thread…
