Heat treating some of the screen prints from yesterday (with the iron at home). A couple were smudged (fell off the line) so they're getting done like this (to avoid heating the smudged bits) rather than thrown in all together into a dryer. The hope is that the smudged ink will then come out in the wash. #RisingTide #screenprinting #craftivism

In blue ink with wavy lines between the words. The t-shirt has a lovely pattern too.

A long sleeve blue shirt is hanging outside near some potted plants. It has been screen printed with an image of the coal ship "Climate Justice" which was graffitied "TAX ME" by activists. 78% has been added under the words and a Rising Tide logo to the left.

Screen printed t-shirts hanging on a makeshift clothesline outside Upcycle premises. The prints in this batch are of animal skeletons - platypus and koalas - done in white on darker tees.

Living in the country of the "Tricoteuses", the famous knitting women of the French Revolution, I have a soft spot for #craftivism like this: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/29/ice-knitting-protest-immigration

#Handicrafts and #fiberArts are dangerous for authoritarian regimes because they connect and enable people.

‘Rage knitting’ against the machine: the hobbyists putting anti-ICE messages into crafts

Makers take a stand through ‘Melt the ICE’ red knit caps and sparkly nails – all while raising funds for those affected by immigration raids
