"Men have started sewing up a storm, driving a culture shift that challenges
the traditional notion of sewing as a “women’s hobby”.
The COVID pandemic drove a resurgence in home economics, with many people –
including many men – picking up skills such as sewing and knitting.
This trend has since grown, even as lockdowns have ended. And it disrupts the
dominant narrative that men stick to stereotypical masculine identities –
particularly in rural Australia, where social pressure to behave a certain way
can feel amplified."
