Abstract
Craft Communities addresses the social groups 'in real life' and online 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 Shetland shawls, in a variety of regional and national contexts, the contributors consider how social media has emerged as a key driver of the 'Third Wave' of craft. From Etsy to Instagram, Twitter to Pinterest, these online communities of the handmade are changing the way people buy and sell, make and meet.
