So here's a quick story:
I used to be a doula and, as a doula, it was a big deal to gain acceptance around women breast feeding in public. So when I first heard about WWKIP I kinda thought 'So there's some stigma around knitting in public? Really? This is something we need to gain acceptance around?'
Well, admittedly, sometimes I can be a bit of a self-righteous dumbass! It's one of my charms really:0) I had to stop and think 'Isn't anything that gets us all on the same page globally, for even a minute, one of the most powerful things that we can do?' Well then....I'm in! Today I will be getting out there and doing my thing right out in the open in solidarity of creativity and craft!
This year WWKIP day lasts a whole week! For more information check out the official Facebook Page.
So.....HAPPY WWKIP DAY!
