Bold Red for Knitters Who Craft with Purpose

This vibrant red fingering weight yarn is for community knitting projects, hats that make a statement, and patterns that bring knitters together. Whether you're creating for collective action or personal expression, some colors just demand to be worn.

Red has always been the color of makers who speak up—from labor movement banners sewn by textile workers to suffragettes' scarves knit in secret. The grandmothers knew: sometimes the quietest work carries the loudest message. We're just keeping that tradition alive, one skein at a time.

The Dye Story: This solidarity red comes from madder root, the same botanical that's colored everything from revolutionary flags to everyday work clothes for centuries. Grown and processed with intention on our West Virginia dye farm, each batch carries the weight of history and the hope of hands working together.

Perfect For:

  • Community knitting circles and collective projects
  • Red yarn for hat knitting patterns
  • Solidarity gifts between makers
  • Any project where your stitches need to speak
  • Knitters who believe their needles are tools for change

Dye Source: Madder root creates this true red with subtle variation

Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. Natural dyes may run first washes - wash separately.

    All of our colorways are tonal – with shifts in color from light to dark as part of the natural dyeing process. Colors and tones may vary from the images online. Pre-wash in cold water – by hand – before use, as natural dyes may release excess color during the first several washes. Lay flat to dry out of direct sunlight.
