White suburban Harvard elites, the founders of Ravelry believe that only privileged people like themselves can save the little brown people of the world. They lied to create a situation where they could feel justified in banning conservatives from their site, tarring and feathering Trump supporters, one and all, with the label of "White Supremacist". They lied to their advertisers about their subscriber count to inflate their advertising rates, creating fake accounts at a time when the site was closed to new accounts. And never forget: they accepted $71,000 in donations from their community -- so much money that they didn't even need it for the business and used some to purchase CARBON CREDITS -- and later, when they no longer needed these donors, they BANNED THE VERY SAME PEOPLE IF THEY WERE TRUMP SUPPORTERS. At the same time, they welcome with open arms hate speech against President Trump, Sarah Palin, Jews, and others. This website is run, and populated, by hateful people, and any veneer of civilization that was once there is long gone. -- Ravelry member 2008 to 2019
There should be no place for politics on a fiber site. Ravelry proved to be horribly biased and totally intolerant.
If you are at all conservative or value freedom of speech it's not a site for you. Definitely left biased.
Nowhere like it anywhere else. Unbelievable wealth of patterns, suggestions, and shared knowledge. Fantastic welcoming community. Love it!
I've only ever received great service from this fine company. Great variety of patterns and difficulties. Principled organisation.
Fabulous layout, easy to use, and I love that they are fighting back against racism and hate speech.
Ravelry is a great knitting site. It has thousands of patterns in many different languages. People all over the world use it because it is an extraordinary site. I've learn so much using this site. The cowl in the picture is from a pattern in Ravelry.
Ravelry es un sitio fantástico para tejedores. Tiene miles de patrones en distintos idiomas, incluido español. En todo el mundo la gente usa este sitio porque es extraordinario. Yo he aprendido mucho en este sitio. El modelo de la foto es de un patron de Ravelry.
I just wanted to knit and use Ravelry as a prime source. Too much politics to weed through both nationally and in their sub groups.
Love having all my patterns in one place, it's a good place to find ideas for that special yarn, and great forums for asking questions.
This site has been a valuable resource to my crafting as well as social networking. Admin is responsive and caring. Fantastic site.
Ravelry has been a fantastic way to improve my skills, connect with others, and organize my projects.
A great resource for anyone interested in the fibre arts. And a great way to find out that Aunt Becky is racist trash. A+
I absolutely love being a member of ravelry with the many designers and patterns as well as all of the forums to share information. Great job
Good on ya to stand up for what you velieve in. I hope more companies follow your lead. Racists have no place in this world, not even here.
I love Ravelry. They won't allow racists on their website and have a huge collection of patterns for both knitters and crocheters.
Great site, full of more information than I can make use of, and with very supportive community to provide help, opinions, and fun.
Easy to navigate and endless projects, many free. I've been a member for years and support the owners in stamping down the haters.
