Resistimus

Shortly after I published my popular Felis Hattus knitting pattern, a colleague reached out to discuss an exciting opportunity to contribute a couple of “craftivism” related patterns for a new book she was planning. This sparked my creativity, and I began brainstorming other impactful concepts. One idea particularly stood out to me, and while the book offer unfortunately didn't materialize, I was inspired to bring this concept to life regardless.

Just like my Felis Hattus pattern, I am thrilled to offer this new pattern to you as a FREE resource! If you enjoy crafting and find value in this design, I kindly ask you to consider donating to your favorite STEM-related cause or supporting organizations that are actively fighting against the policies of the Trump administration. This administration has taken steps that undermine innovation and discredit scientific progress in the United States, making our nation less globally competitive and more vulnerable to challenges like climate change, among numerous other crucial issues.

Fortunately, we stand strong with RESISTIMUS (Latin for "we are resisting")! Together, through our creativity and activism, we can contribute to the fight for a more scientifically informed and innovative future.

This knitting pattern not only serves as a creative outlet but also stands as a symbol of resilience and activism. So grab your yarn and needles, and join me in this movement! Happy crafting!
