【Book Description】

This book is the first major study dedicated to the culture of handicrafting among media fans, examining how fans use textile and craft practices to reinterpret and engage with their favorite films, television series, and popular media. Author Brigid Cherry draws on in-depth ethnographic research conducted within Ravelry, the globally renowned online social network for knitters, crocheters, and craft enthusiasts. Through this research, she explores how textile crafts function both as an artistic practice and as a transformative form of fan production.

The book includes a number of case studies featuring craft projects inspired by popular media such as Doctor Who, True Blood, Firefly, Harry Potter, Sherlock, and steampunk culture. Through these examples, the book examines a wide range of fan practices, including fan art, fan fiction, and cosplay, demonstrating how fans transform media texts into creative, material forms through handmade production.

With the rise of digital media and online communities, increasing numbers of film and television fans are turning to textile crafts—including knitting, crochet, spinning, and dyeing—as ways to reinterpret and extend the stories and worlds they admire. By sharing their creations through online forums, blogs, and craft communities, fans not only build global networks of creativity but also construct their own fan identities and cultural affiliations.

The book also engages with key debates in textile studies and media theory, addressing topics such as gender, domesticity, the culture industries, audience studies, and fan culture. By situating craft practices within broader cultural discussions, it offers valuable insights into the social and cultural significance of handmade production in contemporary media culture. This book is essential reading for students and readers interested in textiles, media studies, fashion studies, cultural studies, and gender studies.
