This issue travels throughout Vermont and New Hampshire's stunning countryside and into the White Mountains. Visit the shores of Lake Champlain and Lake Winnipesaukee, the granite mountains of New Hampshire to Mt. Washington, and the small farms and towns tucked into wooded vales. Explore the village of Harrisville, a National Historic Landmark known as a rare textile community in the country. The Harrisville mill is deep-rooted in tradition and paired with 21st century sustainability and economics.

By Hand is a serial produced by Andrea Hungerford three times per year that explores locations around the country that have developed their own unique "maker communities" where people who love to make, love to learn to make, and love to support makers have found a common sense of purpose.
Each of these geographic "clusters" has its own unique characteristics, and those characteristics influence the artists who live and work there. Each issue of By Hand is a place-based celebration of these communities of makers, focused primarily on the fiber and fabric industry, as well as highlighting artists in other media who share the same philosophy as fiber and fabric artists of functional beauty. Additionally each issue includes patterns, projects, photo essays, day trips, foodie excursions, and other write-ups of aspects unique to the featured city or region.
