#VisibleMending is not only for #clothes. This #colourful#handbag with abstract roses helped me against dark winter days. Suddenly I discovered this terrible hole and decided to mend it. It was not easy to find the fabric (more in the Alt texts) but I saved my handbag! π And now it's a unique piece of individual design! @visiblemending@sewing

and thanks for the reminder, I still need to read that book!
Artifacts made of stone, bone and other hard materials are somewhat easy to identify. But scientists have to get creative when it comes to discovering the clothes early humans wore. Live Science explores the question of when people started wearing clothes: https://flip.it/SSdstG #Science#Artifacts#Clothes
When did humans start wearing clothes? The evidence used to answer this question comes from a few main sources, including bones bearing evidence of skinning, sewing needles and awls, and lice. Biologists estimated that anatomically modern #humans started regularly wearing simple #clothes around 170,000 years ago, during the second-to-last #ice age. Different human groups probably started and stopped wearing clothes many times throughout #history. https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/when-did-humans-start-wearing-clothes#science
Behh. Dryer did a number on my sweater dress, not ruined but probably shouldn't do that again.
Practical alternatives to drying machines? I really don't want to have to do an outdoor clothes line. Probably have squirrels and bird shit all over my stuff that anyway
