Texilent — A textile journal — fabric, craft, and technique.
Texilent is a textile and fabric craft journal. We publish guides to natural fibres — linen, cotton, hemp, wool and silk — explaining how each is grown, spun, woven and finished, and how to choose the right cloth for the project in front of you.
Our craft coverage follows the slow side of textiles: plant dyeing and indigo vats, block printing, sashiko stitching and visible mending, hand weaving, and the long history of the fabrics we still live with every day. Everything here is researched, written guides and stories — knowledge to read, try at home and keep, shared by people who love cloth.
We publish new stories regularly. Start with the latest articles on the homepage, and feel free to get in touch with suggestions.
