Learning with Stitch Samplers: Exploring Stitch Samplers as Contextual Instructions for E-textile Tutorials

Published:13 June 2022Publication History

ABSTRACT

The field of textile fabrication has a strong pattern-making culture that enables individuals to reproduce items at home. Electronic textile (e-textile) researchers within HCI are increasingly exploring how computing can leverage these textile pattern-making practices, accessible fabrication tools, and do-it-yourself (DIY) maker cultures to enable individuals to make technologies for themselves with soft form factors that further blend computing into our everyday environments. In this paper we focus on the pattern-sharing artifact of stitch samplers, which are used for sharing, teaching, and learning stitching techniques, and explore how the design decisions around them should be adapted for practicing e-textile exercises. To do so, we conducted three studies: (1) preliminary interviews with five modern stitch sampler designers to understand what stitch samplers are used for, (2) a think-aloud user study of our initial e-textile sampler with ten beginners, and (3) interviews with five e-textile educators to reflect on applications and to better understand the opportunities and limitations of using samplers for distance learning. This paper contributes a better understanding of how HCI researchers can incorporate craft pattern practices for learning hybrid craft techniques.
