microRevolt projects investigate the dawn of sweatshops in early 
industrial capitalism to inform the current crisis of global expansion 
and the feminization of labor. microRevolt developed web application 
knitPro, a protest tool that generates knit patterns of sweatshop 
offenders. It was founded in 2003 by knit hobbyist Cat Mazza.
