Ravelry, Facebook of knitting, bans Trump content over 'white supremacy'

Scarves, gloves, shawls, caps - if it can be knit or crocheted, you can probably find a design for it on Ravelry.

It just can't resemble President Donald Trump.

Ravelry, an 8-million-strong social network known as the "Facebook of knitting" and behemoth of all things soothingly created with needlework, has banned all support for Trump and his administration, it announced Sunday.

It's another indication that politics has seeped everywhere - including forums where you can discuss which yarn works best to create crochet bunnies.
