A straggly jumper, shrunken in a hot wash. A frayed sleeve, mended with different wool. A garish sweater, coffee-stained but decidedly unwashed, sent by a loved one to withstand the cold winters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePunctuated by short key texts from textile studies and feminist theory, Softness tugs at the loose threads of this corner of craft history. This is an ode to the disrepaired, a plea to stem the tide of unloved, mass-produced clothing by rethinking the power of soft things.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThread-sewn with illustrations interleaved throughout the text, printed in spot colour across three beautiful paper stocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWritten by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/jeanoberlander.cargo.site\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJean Oberlander \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003eEdited by Eleanor Gaffney,\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lauramoseley.co.uk\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLaura Moseley\u003c\/a\u003e, and\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.chrishortt.com\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eChris Shortt\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIllustrations by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/softandprickly\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRosie Wainwright\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDesign by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/emmacrabtree.co.uk\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eEmma Crabtree\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduction by \u003ca rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.chrishortt.com\/\" aria-describedby=\"a11y-new-window-external-message\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eChris Shortt\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback | 32 pages | 3.55\" x 4.35\"\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jean Oberlander","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47468639256808,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0386\/5896\/5549\/files\/CoverMockUp_1024x1024_2x_e33c1fb8-c140-417b-8123-4838228b02fd.webp?v=1752007596","url":"https:\/\/typebooks.live\/products\/softness","provider":"TYPE Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
