Bridge to Terabithia — Banned Book Colorway

Inspired by Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson, this literature-inspired colorway honors a novel that has quietly shaped generations of readers through its honest exploration of imagination, friendship, grief, and emotional resilience.

The book has been challenged and banned for its portrayal of death, religious language used outside of prayer, and accusations of promoting secular humanism or occult themes — critiques that overlook the novel’s deeply human core. Bridge to Terabithia does not sensationalize loss; instead, it gives young readers space to feel it, name it, and move through it with compassion.

For many readers, this story is unforgettable — tender, tragic, and formative. It remains one of those rare books that trusts children with emotional truth rather than shielding them from it.

That emotional weight carries into this colorway. Softly layered tones reflect imagination and innocence alongside shadow and depth, creating a palette meant to be worked slowly and thoughtfully. This is a yarn for reflection, remembrance, and making space for feeling.

Please Note

All yarn is hand-dyed in small batches; no two skeins are identical.
For larger projects, alternating skeins is recommended for the most even color flow.

Because each skein is carefully dyed and thoughtfully curated by hand, please allow 4–6 weeks for turnaround, especially during peak seasons. Orders are created with intention and care—thank you for supporting slow, meaningful fiber.
