À propos de cet audio

In this solo episode of Halva for the Heart, I reflect on the ancient connection between fiber arts and grief care. From slow stitching and mending to knitting and quilting, I explore how our hands hold ancestral wisdom, how the rhythmic, tactile act of making with thread can help us process what our minds cannot.

This episode weaves together:

reflections on fiber arts as embodied grief care, from quilting to visible mending
the story of Elizabeth Roseberry Mitchell’s Graveyard Quilt and other memorial textiles
how knitting, crochet, and yarn wrapping can become rituals of remembrance and release
my personal story about returning to knitting in grief, and the healing power of communal making
