NIKE BLANKET PETITION
An international collective of knit and crochet hobbyists
have stitched a 14 foot wide blanket of the Nike Swoosh. Each
crocheted pixel (square) acts as a petition for fair labor
policies for Nike garment workers. microRevolt has collected
virtual signatures and hand made squares from over 40 countries
and almost every state in the USA. Multi-colored squares
were also collected and knitted into the border of the Nike
Blanket (Istanbul, Turkey November 2007). The list of the
signatures will be delivered to Phil Knight, Chairman of the
Board of Nike Corporation in the summer of 2008. |
