It's best to blog about National Craft Month before it is over - which it nearly is. Etsy remined us in this entry.

But hey, for Storque readers, when is it not Craft Month, anyway? Not to poo-poo this celebration at all: we should take the time to reflect on our collective project here: the indie craft movement. It's an opportunity to spread awareness about consumerism, and to think about how entrepreneurship and hands-on learning can improve people's lives. CHA (the Craft and Hobby Association) is spearheading the "National Craft Month" promotion, and you can find out more about events they're sponsoring and ways to get involved here.

The Craft and Hobby Association uses the idea to energize crafters but most blogging crafters are already thinking about crafts regularly. At least FuzzySheepKnits, Cinnamon Purls and Ashley's Creative Corner were on top of NCM early in the month.
