Trump is a Fascist Square
This square says exactly what it means: Trump is a fascist. This square is a part of a long-standing tradition of using fiber arts to push back against oppression. Quilters, knitters, and crocheters have been stitching resistance for centuries — now it’s your turn.
Gauge is not super important - the size depends on your yarn and hook:
Worsted weight + 5mm hook = about 12x12 inches
DK weight + 4mm hook = about 8x8 inches
Grab your hook and two same weight yarns and you’re good to go!
This is interlocking crochet, which means you’ll be working two mesh layers at the same time, weaving them together to form the design.
The first few rows are the hardest — there are video links to walk you through the tricky bits. After that, it’s all about following the counts and keeping your colors straight.
Left-handed? No worries — there are instructions to help you flip the design so it works for you.
The finished size depends on your yarn and hook, but expect around 8 to 12 inches square.
Craft has always been political — from quilts with secret messages to protest banners made from scraps. This square is part of that legacy. Whether you hang it up, gift it to a like-minded friend, or just make it because you can — every stitch is a little act of defiance. Stitch loud. Stitch proud.
