   Nyckelord :community of practice; do-it-yourself; do-it-together; participatory design; social production; sustainable fashion; value creation; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

   Sammanfattning : What could cause greater upheaval in any system of trade than the consumer becoming the producer? Even though there is a vast amount of information concerning the negative environmental and social impact that the overproduction of fashion contributes to, the industry still manages to attract and make more people into consumers as they are playing on the human need and desire for renewal.
