Pearl Power -- Yarn Preorder

This colorway is dedicated to Pearl Chin, owner of Knitty City in NYC, who passed away on 10/27/20. Pearl's energy, creativity and passion for the creative arts and activism were boundless. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to Asian American Arts Alliance.

About  the colorway "PEARL POWER"... Red symbolizes good luck, success, vitality, and happiness in Chinese culture. Pearl's legacy and power live on through the knitting community and the lives she touched through mentorship and kindness.

This limited edition preorder will remain open until November 15th.
