Particular focus is given to gender roles in the spaces of craft production, the relationship between old and new media in digital craft culture, and the relationship between folk and commercial culture within fabriculture. According to the authors, fabriculture challenges a number of traditionally-held distinctions between private and public, past and present, masculine and feminine, and amateur and professional. It is suggested that craft can be conceptualized as political activism. Topics discussed include capitalism, knitting utopianism, labor activism, and feminism. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Utopian Studies is the property of Pennsylvania State University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
