BBC: The Wisbech embroiderer racing to recreate the Bayeux Tapestry

As the British Museum prepares to put the #Bayeux Tapestry on display in London next September, the Cambridgeshire-based artist is furiously working away on her own full-size replica.

The original, nearly 1,000 years old and 70m (230ft) in length, tells the story of the 1066 Norman conquest of England and the Battle of Hastings.

AI has been infiltrating knitting and crochet spaces, filling them with useless patterns. Here's why that's happening and what can be done about it.

#FibreArts friends, I want to re-home this bundle of merino wool. I got it when I learned to spin and I've found I don't enjoy spinning merino all that much. Does anyone fancy it?

It's free to a good home for the cost of postage. I'm in the UK. Happy to post international. I'm happy to consider a trade too if that's more of interest.

As per the packaging, it's from FibreHut in the UK.

A lovely short (15 minutes long) documentary about the sheep, wool and knitting of the Faroe Islands. Explores the rich history, island yarn producers and designers in their studios/shops, along with the 100+ motifs associated with the island. A worthy watch!

Anyone have any thoughts on a good quality natural fibre sewing thread? I have some projects I'm working on and want to dye with Procion but don't want undyed poly thread showing up in the mix. Linen? Cotton? Sources? Possibly in Canada?

Someone here recently was looking for size-inclusive knitting patterns. These 20 are all dupes, sized up. See link!

馃惛馃Ф馃惛 Lookity look, the frog is ON!!

Thanks to #FinishOrFrogAlong, I was finally able to let go of this project that just wasn't calling to me anymore.

Nordic roots (Estonian, Germanic) -a culture of no waste and finishing what you start - can be helpful, but not always. This shawl had become a torment. Fun to plan, not fun to knit.

It's OK to frog. It's healthy to frog!
