microrevoltmicroRevolt projects investigate the dawn of sweatshops in early industrial capitalism to inform the current crisis of global expansion and the feminization of labor.

microRevolt developed web application knitPro, a protest tool that generates knit patterns of sweatshop offenders. knitPro is a web application that translates digital images into knit, crochet, needlepoint and cross-stitch patterns. Just upload jpeg, gif or png images of whatever you wish — portraits, landscapes, logos… and it will generate the image pattern on a graph sizable for any fiber project.”

If you’ve forgotten, they give instructions on how to knit.

Knitting is cool!
