Inspired by Gender Queer by Maia Kobabe, this literature-inspired colorway draws from a groundbreaking graphic memoir that explores identity, self-discovery, and the freedom to exist outside rigid expectations. Frequently challenged and banned for its honest depiction of gender and sexuality, Gender Queer has become a vital work for readers seeking representation, understanding, and truth.
That spirit carries into this colorway. Expressive, layered tones create a palette that feels personal, courageous, and unapologetically authentic. Subtle variation and depth reflect the complexity of self-definition and the power of telling one’s own story — in one’s own voice.
Gender Queer translates that honesty into fiber, honoring a book that insists on visibility, empathy, and the right to be seen.

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.
Create Boldly. Read Freely.
