For the knitters and crocheters:

We are banning support of Donald Trump and his administration on Ravelry. We cannot provide a space that is inclusive of all and also allow support for open white supremacy. More details: https://t.co/hEyu9LjqXa— Ravelry (@ravelry) June 23, 2019



Yet their twitter profile says:
"Inclusive, friendly website for 🧶 people around the 🌏."

I've had an account there for many years, probably close to 15. I mainly crochet, but I knit a little. Knitting a pair of socks was on my bucket list, and I found a great heel pattern on the site that I love. (And I knitted my first pair a couple of years ago!) I never commented or wrote anything at the site, so it doesn't affect me in that way. Anyway, just bummed about this. *sigh*

Another site to ban, been a member for years...when I had my own business in PA my customers and I talked a lot about Ravelry and how good they were...I’m not in PA anymore and don’t have the business anymore...and I am boycotting Ravelry and will not let a person tell me again how good they are...

If you can’t support the POTUS then you don’t need people on your site!!!

Same here. I loved Ravelry. If you ask me - this stuff is an example of Clinical Insanity! I just permanently deleted my account at Ravelry - as I had to do at Pinterest not too long ago for categorizing a Pro-Life site as "porn". I seriously hate these people!
