I swear to god I love how liberals overthink everything.

There is a very PERFORMATIVE debate going on in knitting and fiber arts about if this idea some people have about knitting red hats is performative or not.
I kid you not. Nice suburban white ladies are giving each other anxiety attacks Please stop. It's obvious that bringing groceries for your neighbor is more helpful than knitting a hat. But if knitting is what YOU can do now? That is AMAZING.
Kind of sad no one has noticed they have reinvented the liberty cap. Put that sucker on a pole.
@futurebird I had to do some research. Found this! https://www.aoc.gov/explore-capitol-campus/blog/liberty-cap-symbol-american-freedom

@futurebird
I've needed a project to focus my knitting practice because I want to get better.
My phrygian cap idea was a bust and looks stupid.
This hat will look stupid.
-2 v -1I figure it's also is a really good pattern for practice considering the one by one repeats.
So those are my reasons.
I hope it doesn't come off too performative, but most of me doesn't care. -
