Craftivism

Where Crafting, Community & Activism Intersect Instead of protests or confrontational tactics, craftivism tends to be gentle, personal, and thought-provoking. From the true story of 23-year-old secret agent Phyllis Latour Doyle who hid her codes in knitting to avoid detection by the Nazis, to practical how-to guides for using embroidery, quilting, crochet and other handmade crafts a to advocate for social, political or environmental change, these books will introduce you to the subtle blend of activism and crafting.
