▼ The current uncertainty centres around Craft as a discipline as opposed to a set of skills applied to a process for a predefined product. This dichotomy is partly due to the lack of a clear definition of craft practice, its theoretical underpinning, and criteria for the evaluation of the products of practice. It appears that this problem emanates from craft itself which has few, if any, practitioners writing from their perspective of practice. A practitioner herself, with all the tacit knowledge from which craft practice is built, enables the researcher to articulate a particular viewpoint, that of the practitioner‘s. She has used this knowledge in the presentation of this thesis and has conducted the research necessarily informed by her own practice. She has also specifically sought the views of other practitioners in order to maintain the voice of practice within this thesis. The term =Fine Craft practice‘ is used by the Past Present and Future Craft Practice1 project to which the researcher is affiliated. In order to understand what Fine Craft practice is, it is necessary to define within the Project context what is meant by this from the perspective of practice. A working definition of Fine Craft practice was developed and this definition became the tool with which to identify possible historical and contemporary Fine Craft practice and to examine the process of progress within these craft practices in order to develop a model of interrogating progress within one‘s own practice and within that of another. This process verified the definition of Fine Craft Practice. Interviews with a cross-section of contemporary craft practitioners were conducted to enable a critical analysis of their methodological approaches. Analysis of practitioners‘ responses formed the basis of a progress wheel, which was divided into equal quadrants. This progress wheel can, through self-reflection and through interview, identify the process of progress within one‘s own or another practitioner‘s practice, dependant on the balance of segments within the wheel. Fine Craft practice is the goal of dedicated practitioners, and the model developed is the yardstick against which to measure that progress and to identify the gaps in practice, which can be addressed. The relevance and importance of this research to craft practitioners and to education was discussed and further research identified. The House of Falkland in Fife, Scotland, a Grade A listed building, was part of the investigation. The wonderful original Arts and Crafts and Byzantium features were part of the refurbishment in 1890‘s, undertaken by G.W. Schultz, H.W.Lonsdale and others who were significant practitioners of the Arts and Crafts movement. A case study of the Vine Corridor2 within the House of Falkland, gave opportunity to critically analyse historical craft using the Advanced Practice Model which gave insight into the methodological approaches embedded within historical Fine Craft practice and verified the model as a tool for interrogating the practitioner responsible for…

▼ This is a study at the interface of self, craft, and sustainability. It is a small part of a wider personal and social conjecture on the subject of ‘change ’ involving these three domains.This research develops the proposal that the success of a profound social change, which in our time pertains to the change towards sustainable societies, lies in the likeliness of self-transformation in individuals. Here the craft perspective is taken in order to link it to a large body of research in response to environmental and ethical concerns. However, unlike other object-oriented approaches with a similar purpose, the purpose of this research is to seek a greater contribution from craft practice when it is viewed as a transformation of the craftsperson. By referring to this human capacity, it argues, not only is crafting an inducement to self-transformation but also self-transformation can be regarded as a craft. To support this argument, material is drawn from the literature on craft, sustainability, philosophy of the self and social and developmental psychology. The historical and developmental formations of the key areas of the research are explored and psychological factors that motivate desirable ‘changes’ are identified. This exploration is then supported by interviews, personal narratives and the active participation of the researcher in the actual practice of craft. The research suggests that the state of self-actualization, where humanity reaches its fullness, is the destination to which the self needs to transform. It then traces elements involved in such a transformation back to their origin. This includes meanings and values leading to transformation, knowledge leading to meanings, experience leading to knowledge and the embodied connection between the self and the environment leading to experience. At the deepest level, it proposes a particular mode of relationship which is best described as craftsmanship or ‘the craft way of being.’ This process is also traced in the personal experience of the researcher.This thesis concludes with an explanation of the concept of ‘deep craft’. It proposes that the outcome of a deeper understanding of craft, which in effect widens the territory of craft activities, becomes manifest in the world in the form of ‘care taking’, essential for the ‘change’ towards more sustainable societies.

No Rio Grande do Norte, a atividade artesanal é geradora de economia, envolve um número significativo de pessoas e é diversificada em suas matérias-primas e tipologias. Como referência do artesanato local, a cerâmica supriu as necessidades primárias nos utilitários domésticos, adquiriu feição devocional nas figuras religiosas, foi brinquedo nos divertimentos infantis e, por fim, ganhou status de puro ornamento. Por sua representatividade histórica, o distrito de Santo Antônio do Potengi é considerado o mais importante centro de fabricação da cerâmica artesanal no Estado. O trabalho dos oleiros prossegue naquela localidade ancorado entre a herança familiar e a participação cada vez mais influente das políticas públicas destinadas ao setor, situação verificada por visíveis alterações no feitio da louça, açodadas a partir da década de 1990, com a implantação de uma cooperativa destinada à produção coletiva. Nesse percurso, observamos que tais ações, na medida em que objetivam estruturar condições ideais para prover a sustentabilidade do fazer artesanal, não beneficiam de maneira significativa o desenvolvimento social dos artesãos. É importante não perder de vista que existem várias dimensões envolvidas nesse processo e que estas extrapolam o interesse comum pelo objeto e a conotação econômica conseqüente de sua comercialização. São conhecimentos que implicam a escolha às matérias-primas, as singularidades dos aspectos formais e métodos produtivos, sobretudo as relações contextuais organizadas para defender a sobrevivência da atividade

In the Rio Grande do Norte, the craftsmanship is generating of economy, it involves a significant number of people and is diversified in its raw materials and particular type. As reference of the craft local, the ceramics supplied the primary necessities in the utilitarian domestic servants, acquired piety in the religious figures, were toy in infantile amusements and, finally, gained status of pure ornament. By its historical representation, the district of Santo Antônio do Potengi is considered the most important center of manufacture of craftpottery in the State. The work of the potters continues in that locality anchored between the familiar inheritance and the participation each more influential time of the public politics destined to the sector situation verified for visible alterations in the shape of the pottery from the decade of 1990 with the implantation of a cooperative destined to the collective production. We observe in this passage, that such actions in the measure where they objectify to structuralize conditions ideal to support the artisan making, do not benefit in significant way the social development them craftsmen. It is important not to lose of sight that exists some involved dimensions in this process and that these surpass the common interest for the object and the consequent economic connotation of its commercialization. They are knowledge that imply in the access to raw materials, in the peculiar of the formal aspects and productive methods, in the contextual…

▼ The overarching purpose of this research was to determine characteristics of raw materials which impacted the consumption and design process of crafters. The characteristics were related to the three levels of design as described by Donald Norman and the concept of linking value in consumer tribes. The specific focus of this research was a comparison of the levels of design of artisan brand yarn and national brand yarn consumed and utilized by crafters. The comparison occurred at each of the three stages of the craft design process: the initial planning stage of the project, the design process stage, and the result stage. Quantitative data were collected to test four hypotheses and qualitative data were gathered to investigate five research questions relating to the purpose statement. Six hundred and fifty-seven individuals participated in an online, self-administered survey. Participants were recruited using the online social media platform, www.facebook.com and also through a snowball sampling technique. Hypotheses were tested using Pearson's Correlation test, frequencies, and MANOVA. Factor analysis was also used to determine the appropriateness of the three levels of design. Qualitative data from the surveys were analyzed using the constant comparison method. The data were organized into emergent themes which were used to explore the research questions and provide more explanation for the hypotheses. Two design process models were proposed as part of this research effort. The three levels of design as described by Norman (2004) were not appropriate for describing what characteristics of raw materials were important to the consumption and design process of crafters. Individuals purchasing artisan brand yarn placed more emphasis on characteristics such as: the visible texture and feel of the yarn. These craft consumers were also more interested in buying yarn which supported an important business and which came from animals which were ethically raised. The resulting craft design process models were also a major outcome. The description of these models was the first attempt to detail the steps taken by crafters when producing projects. This research was also the first attempt to integrate consumption of materials into a design process model. Future research should endeavor to utilize these models to describe the behavior of different types of crafters.

▼ The current uncertainty centres around Craft as a discipline as opposed to a set of skills applied to a process for a predefined product. This dichotomy is partly due to the lack of a clear definition of craft practice, its theoretical underpinning, and criteria for the evaluation of the products of practice. It appears that this problem emanates from craft itself which has few, if any, practitioners writing from their perspective of practice. A practitioner herself, with all the tacit knowledge from which craft practice is built, enables the researcher to articulate a particular viewpoint, that of the practitioner‘s. She has used this knowledge in the presentation of this thesis and has conducted the research necessarily informed by her own practice. She has also specifically sought the views of other practitioners in order to maintain the voice of practice within this thesis. The term =Fine Craft practice‘ is used by the Past Present and Future Craft Practice1 project to which the researcher is affiliated. In order to understand what Fine Craft practice is, it is necessary to define within the Project context what is meant by this from the perspective of practice. A working definition of Fine Craft practice was developed and this definition became the tool with which to identify possible historical and contemporary Fine Craft practice and to examine the process of progress within these craft practices in order to develop a model of interrogating progress within one‘s own practice and within that of another. This process verified the definition of Fine Craft Practice. Interviews with a cross-section of contemporary craft practitioners were conducted to enable a critical analysis of their methodological approaches. Analysis of practitioners‘ responses formed the basis of a progress wheel, which was divided into equal quadrants. This progress wheel can, through self-reflection and through interview, identify the process of progress within one‘s own or another practitioner‘s practice, dependant on the balance of segments within the wheel. Fine Craft practice is the goal of dedicated practitioners, and the model developed is the yardstick against which to measure that progress and to identify the gaps in practice, which can be addressed. The relevance and importance of this research to craft practitioners and to education was discussed and further research identified. The House of Falkland in Fife, Scotland, a Grade A listed building, was part of the investigation. The wonderful original Arts and Crafts and Byzantium features were part of the refurbishment in 1890‘s, undertaken by G.W. Schultz, H.W.Lonsdale and others who were significant practitioners of the Arts and Crafts movement. A case study of the Vine Corridor2 within the House of Falkland, gave opportunity to critically analyse historical craft using the Advanced Practice Model which gave insight into the methodological approaches embedded within historical Fine Craft practice and verified the model as a tool for interrogating the practitioner responsible for…

▼ Landing craft have been operated by various navies around the world, including the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), for many decades to transport vehicles and personnel, often from ship to shore. Currently the RAN assesses the stability of landing craft using contemporary naval stability criteria. Over time, multiple landing craft stability issues have arisen, mainly due to the unique shapes and uses of these vessel types. Improved stability criteria need to be developed based on a better understanding of the unique physics of landing craft capsize.The research presented in this thesis involved extensive semi-captive model tests in regular beam waves, together with parallel ship motion simulation studies using the time domain motions prediction code FREDYN. The research program was based on a series of three models having different freeboards and a removable bulwark. The various hull/bulwark configurations were tested at three vertical centres of gravity (VCG) intended to represent excessive stability through to marginal stability. In a substantial number of cases there was significant water on deck or into the well created by the bulwarks.The original intention for the experimental series was to achieve a number of capsizes so that boundaries could be establishedâvery few capsizes occurred. The experimental data was used to calibrate FREDYN, whereupon it was found that, with careful calibration, the simulation results could be deemed acceptable. However, the calibration data was for a specific shape of vessel, limiting the usefulness of FREDYN for exploring the stability of landing craft in general. Nevertheless, the data obtained indicated a number of trends that could prove useful in establishing stability criteria.The data obtained has been analysed and the results used to develop quasi-static stability criteria specific to landing craft. These criteria are primarily adaptations of existing contemporary criteria, such as the IMO and naval wind/wave criteria, augmented by criteria designed to account for the peculiarities of landing craft. A specific stability criterion to address taking significant water into the well, such as from a major green sea event, has been developed. The criteria proposed are suitable for application by the mainstream naval architectural community.

▼ The origin of my thesis is the motion with which users interact with seating, how users interact with space progressively. In this thesis I explored and developed seating, a deep interest of mine that has been growing for the last several years. I worked as an interior designer for 3 years before studying woodworking and furniture design at the Rochester Institute of Technology. The experience undertaken by designing, drafting and engineering of space and furniture taught me a great deal. I realized that the function of furniture in some spaces is not just about simple function such as storage, or decoration. Furniture in the space addresses and defines the role of a space, and it becomes the other in that space. Furniture has evolved throughout the centuries. Furniture not only provides convenience but also gives a clear definition of the space's character, where it is placed. In other words, furniture plays the connecting role between a space and a human being. Seating is a kind of furniture closely related to people and is used more widely and in more ways than others. We spend a significant portion of our lives sitting. Consequently, our whole bodies are affected by it, physically and emotionally. I chose to investigate how a user's emotion relates to seating based on that physical relationship. The progression of my thesis has started from the motion to let users interact with the seating and space gradually. Most of my works are composed of multiple movable components that can be freely reconfigured by users in different ways. Through repositioning or combining separate components, users can create a variety of furnishings allowing static furniture to be dynamic and playful. The first thing I focused on was the physical characteristics of structure in free form motion. Each from has its own curve or round shapes from bending. Bending techniques helped me convey the "invisible" relationship between user and seating, the physical and psychological concepts behind my work. I was able to express my ideas and feelings in my works. The process of creating the seating, made me open to a new visual and technical point of view.

▼ Through the exploitation of new additive manufacturing (AM) processes, this research seeks to reinvent the designer as an informed mediator between the digitally defined and the physically expressed. Current 3D printing techniques generally construct an object layer by layer, building vertically in the z-axis. Recently developed, ‘freeform 3D printing’ is an AM method which builds through the deposition of material that solidifies upon extrusion. The result is free-standing material forms with diminished need for support material. Building in this spatial manner means that AM is no longer reliant on layer based techniques that are built from ground-up. Instead, motions can move simultaneously in the x, y and z axes. This increased freedom of motion allows the designer to disregard the requisite that solid forms need to be delineated prior to considering material deposition. Considering this in relationship to the design of artefacts, specific approaches that consider both form and material deposition concurrently allow the authorship of the method of making to be reclaimed. Bespoke computational processes work to encode material deposition with qualities that are tactile, visual and expressive of its making method. Considerations to structural, performative and aesthetic implications are assimilated from the onset rather than post-rationalised. Material deposition is crafted to become three-dimensionally informed and considerate of the integral nature of its making method and its output, exposing new design opportunities. Among other things, the research-through-design process suggests how parametric modelling could be used for mass-customisation and suggests a possible path for AM beyond prototyping, towards the manufacturing of bespoke products through an industrial design perspective. Through iterative abstract and application based experiments, Designed Deposition pursues an increasingly integrated process between the user, the designer, the digital and the physical, towards the creation of digitally crafted artefacts.

Gender-specific division of crafts is significant in Finnish culture. The aim of craft education in comprehensive schools has been to unify education for both girls and boys during the thirty years of modern comprehensive education, but in reality crafts has diverged into two different subjects for girls and boys. Craft education has taught different things: girls have been taught things that are feminine and included in private life, while the boys' education has been mostly directed at public and working life. At the same time girls and boys have been educated and socialized towards a certain womanhood and manhood. Craft as a hobby is also very gender divided but there are some clues that tell of the changing positions on the border areas. The starting point of this study has been the assumption that gender structures within crafts can be transformed. But it is important to know the background that creates and maintains these constructions and the expedients for dismantling the structures. The main purpose of this study is to find out how the gender-specific crafts are changing and how they are still maintained. My study analyses why men and woman have chosen untypical hobbies and through that I shall discuss how gendered structures can be dismantled. In the autumn of 2008 I interviewed borderline breakers within crafts: men who had an interest in textile crafts and women who had an interest in technical work. Informants of this study were 20-31 years old and they studied behavioural sciences. The data was collected in 12 theme interviews and document analysis was used to study the results. The dismantling of the gender divide in crafts is slow, but new borders are drawn all the time. The informants have started textile and technical handicrafts soon after comprehensive school or during their studies at university. A main motivation for the new hobby has been the possibility to study for a teacher's degree with technology or textile studies as a main or a secondary subject. Gender-specific division of crafts is constructed early in childhood as different skills are taught to girls and boys. School teaches gender specific skills and the different skills of girls and boys have not been taken into account. Instead, it has been assumed through comprehensive school that both girls and boys share certain basic skills, and attention has not been paid to the differences between genders. At university the same assumption has still thrived. Skill levels between men and women are substantial and that may have hindered a move by women to technical studies and by men to textile studies. Hence an assumption of naturally gendered crafts has been developed.

Purpose This study focused on craft from a standpoint of phenomenological philosophy and craft was interpreted through Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology of the body. The main focus was the physical phase of the craft process, wherein a product is made from material. The aim was to interpret corporality in craft. There is no former research focusing on lived body in craft science. Physical, bodily making is inalienable in craft, but it is not articulated. Recent discussion has focused on craft as "whole", which emphasizes designing part in the process, and craft becomes conceptualized with the theories of art and design. The axiomatic yet silenced basis of craft, corporality, deserves to become examined as well. That is why this study answers the questions: how craft manifests in the light of phenomenology of the body and what is corporality in craft? Methods In this study I cultivated a phenomenological attitude and turned my exploring eye on craft "in itself". In addition I restrained myself from mere making and placed myself looking at the occurrence of craft to describe it verbally. I read up Maurice Merleau-Ponty's phenomenology of the body on his principal work (2002) and former interpretations of it. Interpreting and understanding textual data were based on Gadamer's hermeneutics, and the four-pronged composition of the study followed Koski's (1995) version of the Gadamerian process of textual interpretation. Conclusions In the construction of bodily phenomenology craft was to be contemplated as a mutual relationship between the maker and the world materializing in bodily making. At the moment of making a human being becomes one with his craft, and the connection between the maker, material and the equipment appears as communication. Operational dimension was distinctive in the intentionality of craft, which operates in many ways, also in craft products. The synesthesia and synergy of craft were emphasized and craft as bodily practice came to life through them. The moment of making appeared as situation generating time and space, where throwing oneself into making may give the maker an experience of upraise beyond the dualism of mind and body. The conception of the implicit nature of craft knowledge was strengthened. In the light of interpretation it was possible to conceptualize craft as a performance and making "in itself" as a work of art. In that case craft appeared as bodily expression, which as an experience approaches art without being it after all. The concept of aesthetic was settled into making as well. Bodily and phenomenological viewpoint on craft gave material to critically contemplate the concept of "whole craft" (kokonainen käsityö) and provided different kind of understanding of craft as making.

The objective of the present study was to increase knowledge about the atelier culture of recent history, especially about the ways in which atelier clothes were made. I look at the ways of dress-making in the production of a renowned atelier, Salon Kaarlo Forsman. I also give a general outline of the atelier. The studying method I used was triangulation, which is a typical approach in case studies of recent history. My data include 23 dresses by the Salon Forsman, theme interviews of four of the Salon workers and one mannequin, data from my research work, as well as press material and archives. The basis of the analysis of these materials was a theme frame that I had put together with the help of pre-understanding. I then completed and defined the theme frame on the basis of the analysis of the data. I also analyzed the dresses in the fashion photos in the press material. Salon Kaarlo Forsman represents a certain cultural period, the years 1937-1986, and a place where a woman could have individual clothes made for her, from hats to fur coats. The atelier was particularly known for embroidery with beads, draping, and fantastic cuttings designed by the owner, fashion designer Kaarlo Forsman. I draw an outline of the work and practices of the atelier, but also that of Kaarlo Forsman's life work, as he had a great influence on the sewing methods atelier clothes. Mr. Forsman was able to stretch the first period of modern fashion well into the third period by refusing new, labor-saving methods and sticking to individually designer clothes to the end of his enterprise. The crucial practices in the atelier that I present in this study are fitting, designing, finishing and sewing, as well as beading and the decoration of dresses. I compare the activity, practices and dress-making methods in the Forsman atelier to that of Haute Couture in Paris, which served as model for Finnish fashion houses. I point out the similarities and differences.

Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli lisätä tietoa lähihistoriamme ateljeekulttuurista, etenkin ateljeevaatteen valmistuksen työtavoista. Tarkastelen ateljeevaatteen valmistuksen työtapoja Salon Kaarlo Forsmanin tuotannossa. Kuvaan myös millainen muotisalonki Salon Kaarlo Forsman oli. Lähihistorian tapaustutkimukselle luonteenomaisesti käytin aineistotriangulaatiota. Tutkimusaineisto muodostui Salon Kaarlo Forsmanissa valmistetusta 23 puvusta, neljän työntekijän ja mannekiinin teemahaastatteluista, tutkimustiedosta, lehdistömateriaaleista ja arkistolähteistä. Aineistojen sisällönanalyysin pohjana oli esiymmärryksen avulla muodostamani teemarunko, jota täydensin aineistoihin pohjautuvasti. Analysoin myös lehdistöaineiston muotikuvissa esiintyviä pukuja. – Salon Kaarlo Forsman edustaa tiettyä kulttuurista ajanjaksoa, vuosia 1937-1986 ja paikkaa, jossa nainen saattoi teettää yksilöllisen puvuston hatuista sisäturkkeihin. Salonki oli erityisen tunnettu omistajansa, muotitaiteilija Kaarlo Forsmanin suunnittelemista helmikirjonnoista, drapeerauksista ja uskomattomista leikkauksista.…

The purpose of the study was to develop a functional web-based learning material for the learning of the nålbinding technique. The study of the research topic was already begun in my pedagogical thesis in 2008 by considering the demands on pedagogic material for the teaching of the technique. This study falls into the field of qualitative design research which was carried out through three stages. In the study three methods of usability testing, i.e. expert analysis, the informants' thinking aloud and interviews, were used as research methods. At the first stage of the study the first version of the learning material was created. This was done on the basis of theoretical knowledge, the demands set on learning materials as clarified in previous studies, on the basis of previously created learning materials for the learning of the nålbinding technique as well as with the help of two experts on the technique. At the second stage, the learning material was developed on the basis of expert analysis and another version of the material was created. At the third stage, usability testing was carried out on the material. At this stage two informants used the material, practiced stitching with the nålbinding needle and thought aloud while doing so. In the usability testing the Morae –programme was used to record the events on the screen, the actions of the informants and their spoken out thoughts. The Morae –programme was also used when analysing the recordings. After the testing, the informants practised stitching independently and in a few weeks time they were interviewed. The interviews were aimed at finding out the informants' opinions on the future development of the material. On the basis of the informants' independent attempts at using the nålbinding technique, the development of their skills after the testing was also discussed at the interviews. The development of the learning material will continue after this study on the basis of the usability testing and the interviews. The web-based learning material was created for the website Käspaikka in the address www.kaspaikka.fi/kinnasneula. By creating a multimodal learning material the dual-coding theory by Paivio was taken into consideration. According to the theory, several methods of presentation help a learner to restore information in his/her memory. The independent construction of the learner's knowledge, i.e. learning according to the principles of the constructivist learning theory, was also supported by creating a logical navigation system, by linking interrelated topics to one another and by presenting the topics in several different forms. In the test situations the learning material was judged to work well when practising stitching with the nålbinding needle. Both informants learned the basics of the nålbinding technique even though their respective learning strategies were quite different. In the usability testing illogicalities and shortcomings were still noticed in the learning material which will still be further developed in the future.

▼ The aim of the study was to get acquainted with the activity of Näppärät Mummot, a Lahti-based crafts society, and its importance to the wellness of the members of the group. The selected aim, i.e., analyzing the wellness, largely affected the whole research process and its results. According to earlier studies in the field, different forms of craft and expressional activity promote one's wellness as well as support the work for one's identity. Based on my theoretical knowledge, my research was set out to: 1) form a general view of crafts culture within Näppärät Mummot and 2) find out how recollective craft that promotes wellness is perceived through communality, experiential activity, work for one's identity, and divided as well as undivided craft. Qualitative field work was governed by ethnographic research strategy, according to which I set out to get thoroughly familiar with the society I was studying. The methods I used to collect data were participant observation and thematic interview. I used a field diary for writing down all data I acquired through the observation. The interviewee group was formed by seven members of Näppärät Mummot. An mp3 recorder was used to record the interviews, which I transcribed later. The method for data analysis was qualitative content analysis, for which I used Weft QDA, a qualitative analysis software application. I formed themes that shed light on research tasks from the data using coding and theory-driven analysis. I kept literature and data I collected in cooperation through the whole analysis process. Lastly, drawing from the classes of meaning of therapeutic craft that I sketched by means of summarizing and classifying, I presented the central concepts that describe the main results of the study. The main results were six concepts that describe Näppärät Mummot's crafts culture and recollective craft with its wellness-beneficial effect: 1) autobiographical craft, 2) shared work for one's identity, 3) shared intention for craft, 4) craft as a partner, 5) individual manner of craft, and 6) shared improvement. Craft promoted wellness in many ways. It was used to promote inner life management in difficult times and it also provided sensations of empowerment through pleasure from craft. Expressional, shared craft also served as means of reinforcing one's identity in various ways. Expressional work for one's identity through autobiographical themes of craft represented rearranging one's life through holistic craft. A personal way of doing things also served as expressional action and work for one's identity even with divided craft. Shared work for identities meant reinforcing the identities of the members through discourses of craft and interaction with their close ones. What proves the interconnection between communality and craft as well as their shared meaning is that communality motivated the members to work on their craft projects, while craft served as the means of communication between the members: communication through craft was easier than lingual communication.

Rugdesigner Eija Rasinmäki has produced ragrugs since 1970. She wanted to renew the Finnish ragrug so that it would be suitable also for demanding interior design. In the study the essence of Eija Rasinmäki's rugs and the changes it has experienced from 1970 to 2011 is depicted. This includes both the external composition and the message of tradition it emits. The connection between the changes in the rugs and the context where they were created is also explored. Additionally, through examining the changes in the rugs essence, the challenges with combining tradition and modern idiom are contemplated. This was a historical case study. The main material I studied consisted of Rasinmäki's rugs, photos and brochures of the rugs and the collections, the interviews of Eija Rasinmäki and the newspaper clips she has collected around the topic over the years. Other material offered by the textile factory was used as supporting material for the study. The designs of the rugs have clearly changed from 1970 to 2011. There were changes in colour, weave, texture, patterns, composition, size and shape. I divided the rugs into developmental periods according to the major design changes: Loimaa period 1970 - 1978, Early Oitti period 1979 - 1983, Success period 1984 - 1989, Recession period 1990 - 1995, Quiet period 1996 - 2003 and India period 2004 - 2011. The changes in the design were caused mainly by market and economy. They both restrict the design process and direct it by demanding efficiency and affecting customer preferences. Also the designer's own intentions behind the design process change with the spirit of the times. Tradition became a brand for Rasinmäki's rugs. The message of tradition was emitted through the material, manner of manufacturing, patterns, composition, colour and shape. There were no major changes in material and manner of manufacturing, but other elements did change causing the message of tradition to vanish in the 1980's. The problem with combining tradition and modern is their dissimilar nature, other tending to conserve, other to change. Calling the rugs tradition and ragrug binds them with a certain restrictive image, and the conflict between the product and the brand confuses the customer. An artrug may have been a better term.

Mattosuunnittelija Eija Rasinmäki on valmistanut räsymattoja vuodesta 1970 lähtien. Hän halusi uudistaa suomalaista räsymattoa niin, että se sopisi vaativaankin sisustamiseen. Tutkimuksessa kuvataan Eija Rasinmäen Suomessa valmistettujen mattojen olemusta ja sen muutoksia vuosina 1970 - 2011. Tämä käsittää sekä ulkoisen olemuksen että tuotteesta välittyvän perinneviestin. Myös muutosten yhteyttä mattojen syntykontekstissa tapahtuneisiin muutoksiin tarkastellaan. Lisäksi pohditaan mattojen kokonaisolemuksen muutosten pohjalta, millaisia haasteita perinteen ja modernin muotokielen yhdistäminen kohtaa. Tutkimuksen lähestymistapa oli historiallinen tapaustutkimus. Tutkimuksen pääaineiston muodostivat Rasinmäen matot, kuvat ja esitteet matoista ja mallistoista, hänen…

▼ The aim of this study is to find out how sustainable craft is presented in Suuri Käsityö, a Finnish textile crafts and design magazine. Sustainable craft is a concept I developed for the purpose of this study, and it is based on the theoretical framework regarding this thesis. The activity of craft between a consumer and producer defined sustainable development, sustainable consumption and sustainable fashion as the aspects of the frame of reference. Therefore, the outline of the research problem was motivated by the sustainable point of view in textile consumption and the fields of sustainable fashion. This study aims to find out how sustainable craft is presented in the articles of Suuri Käsityö magazine. I examined my primary research question with the help of secondary questions: What kind of materials are represented in the articles? What techniques are introduced to renew used textile materials? Has there been trends in sustainable craft during the years between 2000 and 2008? I approached my research problem by conducting a content analysis and a systematic analysis. My data consisted of the Suuri Käsityö magazine's volumes between 2000 and 2008. Of all the articles published in the volumes, I chose only those that introduced used materials as a source to create handicrafts. I found a number of 160 articles of this kind in nine volumes, and the articles included 206 handicrafts. After this, I examined both text and pictures of the articles. The observational units of my analysis were handicrafts, and the categorical units were materials and techniques. In addition, I analysed the trends of each volume according to separate categories. During the analysis, I categorized different materials and techniques. The categories for the materials were old products, leftover material and wastematerial. I divided the category of old products further to the subcategories of old clothes, interior textiles, furniture and interior objects. Similarly, the subcategories of the techniques became remake, renewal, refashion, repair, decoration and hobby activity. The trends seemed to be renewing and reclaiming of material, increasing of remaking, diversifying of techniques as well as the variety of material. I discussed the results of my analysis by conducting a systematic analysis. I discovered that sustainable craft is presented through appreciation toward the material and usage of craft techniques in order to restore the value of the products. To use old products is the most popular category in my data. There is some variation in the category of techniques, but remaking shows the most rapid increase during the years. During the first years of the 21st century, attention was drawn toward the product's life cycle by renewing products and reclaiming different materials. However, by the end of the decade remaking was very well-presented, all types of material were used in handicrafts and they were made using versatile techniques. Based on qualitative analysis of the articles, it seems that product life cycle and quality,…

Fashion and luxury go well together in fashion blogs. Quality outfits and polished appearances play a significant role in popular Finnish blogs. Luxury products have become more accessible to the average consumer since blogs have become more and more popular. Blogs provide an image that anyone can consume and wear luxury brands and products. The aim of the study was to examine what kind of luxury can be found in fashion blogs. Is it superfluous materialism? Or is it a need and a desire to belong to a community where people share similar interests? The data consisted of updates of nine popular Finnish blogs from three months time in 2012. The blog selection was influenced by both researcher's knowledge of fashion blogs and general popularity and update frequency of the blogs. This qualitative study was based on netnographic principles and analysis method was content analysis. The results divided into two entities: material and immaterial luxury. Material luxury was divided into luxury collecting, considered consumerism, dreaming and contradiction. Luxury collecting included brand consumerism and pleasure with products. Typical for considered consumerism was to invest into quality, scarcity and uniqueness. According to the data dreaming of luxury brand products was a pleasure for several bloggers. The study also showed that some bloggers have contradicting views and attitudes towards luxury. They consume luxury products but feel uneasy simultaneously. Immaterial luxury consisted of sharing knowledge and lifestyle in a social context and aesthetic experience which blogs provide to the reader. Finding knowledge and sharing experience, involvement, belonging to a significant community and receiving acknowledgement from the community were essential in immaterial luxury. Aesthetics of the blogs were photographed bodies completed with carefully selected outfits and accessories. At best those pictures can be seen as little artworks that provide a true luxury experience to the reader.

Muoti ja luksus kulkevat muotiblogeissa luontevasti rinnakkain. Laadukkaaseen pukeutumiseen ja viimeisteltyyn ulkonäköön panostaminen on merkittävässä osassa suosituissa suomalaisissa blogeissa. Blogien suosion myötä luksustuotteet ovat tulleet lähemmäs tavallista kuluttajaa. Blogeista välittyy sellainen mielikuva, että myös tavallinen ihminen saa käyttää luksusmerkkejä ja -tuotteita. Tämän tutkimuksen tehtävänä oli tarkastella millaista on muotiblogien luksus. Onko se yltäkylläisyyttä ja materiaa? Vai halua ja tarvetta saada kuulua johonkin yhteisöön, jossa samanhenkiset ihmiset jakavat tietoa ja kokemuksia kiinnostuksenkohteistaan? Tutkimuksen aineisto koostui yhdeksän suositun suomalaisen muotiblogin blogimerkinnöistä kolmen kuukauden ajalta vuodelta 2012. Blogien valintaan vaikutti tutkijan oma perehtyneisyys muotiblogimaailmaan sekä blogien yleinen suosio ja päivitysaktiivisuus. Laadullisen tutkimuksen taustalla vaikutti netnografinen lähestymistapa ja analyysimenetelmä oli teoriaohjaava sisällönanalyysi. Tutkimustulokset…

Fashion drawing was a main method of portraying fashion before the development of photography. From 1944 to 1951 appeared a Finnish fashion magazine titled Muotikuva. The magazine focused introducing domestic and foreign women's fashion and appeared during eight years time period, four times a year. It is an example of a time when clothes were prepared by hand and pictured by fashion drawing. Kyllikki Raustila (1905-1965) was a pioneer of Finnish fashion drawing. She made a productive career in the field of fashion illustration. For Muotikuva Raustila drew most of the cover images and also illustrated domestic ateliers new fashions such as Ika and La Robe. This study analyses Kyllikki Raustila's way of portraying fashion and its evolution by studying her fashion drawings which were published in Muotikuva. Secondly, the study will analyse how the fashion drawings illustrate the fashion of its time, and what kind of role they have had in Muotikuva-magazine. The research data were Kyllikki Raustila's fashion drawings that appeared in Muotikuva from 1944 to 1951. 19 cover illustrations were Raustila's work and the magazine published over 100 other drawings by her. The data analysis method combined semiotic image analysis and qualitative content analysis. Image analysis was carried out by applying Gillian Rose's (2001/2012) visual data analysis model. From semiotic point of view, images were examined at denotative (structure) and connotative level (content). Fashion was studied from a semiotic point of view, making use of Roland Barthes (1967/1983) theories. Analysis of the fashion drawings was based on the image elements found in fashion photography (clothing, a mannequin, posing and props) defined by Naomi Rosenblum (1984/2007) and Merja Salo (2005). Kyllikki Raustila's fashion drawings utilize the same elements as fashion photographs. The main focus of the fashion drawing is to represent clothes. Drawings are more efficient representations of fashion than photographs. Fashion illustrator presents the main idea of the cloth with abstracting and emphasizing. Muotikuva's mannequin and her posing style remains almost unchanged through the Muotikuva's volumes. The mannequin of the drawings is shown realistic and described poses are natural. Postures of the fashion images are typically asymmetric in relation to different parts of the body. Fashion drawings include asymmetry, in addition to contrasts that create tension and fascination to the image. Development of Kyllikki Raustila's visual expression can be seen in Muotikuva's cover images: Raustila's characteristic Parisian drawing style intensified and cleared. Drawings stabilized rhythmic lines and bold color surfaces, mannequin facial features became more detailed. Overall, Muotikuva-magazine cover mannequin reflected the fashionable ideal of a woman.

Muotipiirtäminen oli ennen valokuvauksen kehittymistä keskeinen keino kuvata muotia. Vuosina 1944 1951 ilmestynyt Muotikuva-lehti on esimerkki ajasta, jolloin vaatteet valmistettiin käsin ja muotia kuvattiin…

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate what kind of meanings charity craft makers associate in their craft making processes. The research problem was formed through reading up on theoretical studies about craft making processes. In earlier studies meanings attached to craft making that have emerged are the planning and making process of crafts, communality of crafts and the joy produced by crafts. According to researchers, motives behind taking part in charity are the will to help and desire to participate in sociological activity. The object of this study is to analyze how these meanings attached to crafts and charity are connected to the making processes of makers of charity crafts and how the objects of charity are selected. Method: I collected my data by using qualitative and quantitative approaches, yet qualitative was my study's main method of approach. My data was collected by a questionnaire, which was published on the internet. The questionnaire had structured statements and one open question, which were used to gather information on the meanings attached to charity crafts. The questionnaire got 488 answers. From the statements I gathered quantitative data concerning the typicality of meanings and from the open answers I gathered qualitative data on the thoughts of individual respondents. The research methods complemented each other and I got diverse information on the subject. The analysis of the statements was descriptive and the analysis of the open answers was theoretical. Results and conclusions: The meanings attached to crafts received many characteristics in the making process of the respondents. The object of charity was chosen according to the respondent's ideologies and views. Some felt that they made a sociological difference by taking part in charity crafts. The feeling of making a difference depended on the charity object and project. Helping was viewed as important, which stood out in the results. Helping via crafts was natural for craft hobbyists and its tangibility was viewed as important. In the designing process respondents emphasized the planning of colors, which gave way to creativity. Most of the products were made according to ready instructions, which suited the ready products. Although most respondents made crafts alone, communality was felt by participating in shared projects. On the internet following projects and joining discussions brought up communal feelings. Making crafts was greatly enjoyed and it was viewed as relaxing and joy bringing. The respondents made lots of crafts frequently.

Tavoitteet: Tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli analysoida minkälaisia käsityön merkityksiä hyväntekeväisyyskäsitöiden tekijät liittävät omaan tekemiseensä. Tutkimusongelma muodostui käsitöiden tekemisen teoriaan perehtymisen kautta. Aiemmissa tutkimuksissa käsitöiden tekemiseen liitettyjä merkityksiä ovat olleet käsitöiden suunnittelu- ja valmistusprosessi, yhteisöllisyys ja käsitöiden tuottama ilo. Hyväntekeväisyyteen osallistumisen taustalla on tutkijoiden mukaan auttamisen halu ja halu…
