What is 'art' about yarn art? - By Workman's Friend

Fiber art is defined as fine art that uses natural or synthetic yarn or fabric. The focus is on the materials and the manual labor required to produce the work of art. Though it’s been around for centuries, it was in the sixties and seventies that modern fiber art underwent a massive change and gained immense popularity. Since then, fiber art has been created by knotting, twining, plaiting, coiling, pleating, lashing, and interlacing yarn or fabric. Artists around the world are now pushing boundaries in terms of what fabric can do. This has resulted in the creation of works that can be hung, are free standing, two or three dimensional, flat, many stories high, or miniature. Though we’re not familiar with fiber art here at Workman’s Friend, we are in awe of the resulting creations. It is for that reason
