I've noticed on Twitter that TRAs are trying to cancel Caerthan Wrack (Twitter name) of Triskelion Yarns and to get him kicked out of this weekend's yarn festival at Farnham Maltings. I'm hoping the organisers will stand strong against the mob, but they probably won't. Caerthan, a gay man, has been a staunch ally on Twitter, with many posts against the TRA nonsense.

I have just gone to his website Triskelion Yarns and ordered some yarn. If you're planning a yarn purchase some time soon, perhaps you could support Caerthan? I left a note on my order explaining why I was buying his yarn, so he knows he has some support. I will try to contact the organisers of the festival to make sure they know it's not just the TRAs who care about this.

I am outraged about this. How dare they try to affect someone's livelihood for the "crime" of disagreeing with them?
