Craft Communities addresses the social groups, old and new, which
have developed around craft production and consumption, exploring
the social and cultural impact of contemporary practices of making.
Addressing a wide range of crafting practice, from yarnbombs to
Shetlands shawls, brassware to paper crafting, in a variety of
regional and national contexts, the contributors consider how craft
practices operate collectively in the home, communities,
businesses, workshops, schools, social enterprises, and online. It
further identifies how social media has emerged as a key driver of
the 'Third Wave' of craft. From Etsy to Instagram, Twitter to
Pinterest, online communities of the handmade are changing the way
people buy and sell, make and meet.
