My guest today is psychologist and lifelong knitter Nicole Nehrig, author of the book WITH HER OWN HANDS: Women Weaving Their Stories In this timely and powerful exploration, Nicole uncovers how women across centuries and cultures have used textile arts—knitting, weaving, embroidery—not only as creative outlets, but as tools of resistance, expression, survival, and connection. As a new generation rediscovers fiber arts for mindfulness and meaning, Nicole reclaims the intellectual and emotional legacy behind every stitch. This book touches on subjects such as feminist history, modern crafting culture, the neuroscience of making, and the stories we literally weave into the fabric of our lives.
