Published June 23, 2019 6:30pm ET



A popular website devoted to knitting and crochet enthusiasts announced Sunday on Twitter that they will no longer allow knitting projects or patterns that feature support for President Trump or his administration.

“Ravelry” said the ban will further extend to any forum talk of support for the president or user profiles that mention support of Trump or his associates. They stated, “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.”
