I’m so excited to announce the second annual #LatinxMakerMonth Instagram celebration of makers during Hispanic Heritage Month! I hope you will join me over the next 30 days as I share the work of a talented group of Latinx and Hispanic makers including crochet and knitting designers, indie yarn dyers, cosplay sewists, and more!

This is my second year hosting #LatinxMakerMonth on Instagram. My long-time readers know I’m proud of the ways in which my cultural background has influenced my creativity. If you’re new to Underground Crafter, you can get to know me in this Instagram post!

I originally started with an interview series back in 2012, but it got too challenging for me to coordinate so last year I switched to an Instagram celebration. I’m so excited to say that 28 Latinx makers are joining in the fun this year.
How #LatinxMakerMonth Works
Hispanic Heritage Month is an annual celebration in the United States from September 15 through October 15. You can read more about the history of Hispanic Heritage Month and find out about other celebrations here. Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to recognize the contributions of people of Latin American and Spanish descent to America society. The term “Latinx” is a gender-inclusive way of describing people with Latin American heritage.
I’ve invited fellow Latinx and Hispanic makers — mostly (but not exclusively) crochet and knitting designers and indie yarn dyers — to takeover my Instagram account during Hispanic Heritage Month. Each maker will introduce themselves and share pictures so you’ll get to meet some new-to-you accounts to follow for crafty inspiration! If you’d like to spread the word, feel free to share the button below on social media. Right click (on desktop) or tap and hold (on mobile) to save.
