We all heart a bit of craftivism and if you don't you will after I shove you in the direction of some of the most outspoken knits ever. Ladies and gents, the sweaters of Lisa Anne Auerbach.
Lisa's Little Red Blog of Revolutionary Knitting drags you by the yarn into a world of jumpers with attitude. A far cry from twee hearts and bunnies of sweater past these machine-knit garments tell it like it is in stitched spadeloads.
Featuring phrases with a sense of humour, such as "Thank God I'm an Atheist", a political message "Pro-life is Pro Living" and the philosophical, "If nothing changes, it changes nothing." they're comfortable sweaters with uncomfortable messages.
Lisa choose sweaters as they're more permanent than t-shirts and, quite frankly, they seem so much more effective. You can see a good selection on Steal This Sweater with some wordless items that are just as effective too.
Inspiring stuff. Saying it with stitches certainly gets the message across.
