Y'All Means All: A Hint of Color There's a line in The Birdcage that stops us every time. "One does want a hint of color." It's throwaway comedy on the surface. Underneath, it's a whole philosophy: that joy insists on itself, that color belongs everywhere, that a life fully lived doesn't apologize for taking up space. My family has loved this film for thirty years, and we still quote it to each other constantly. A gay couple in South Beach, raising a son, running a club, building a life together that is loud and warm and completely their own. The film came out in 1996. That same year, Congress voted 85 to 14 to pass the Defense of Marriage Act, telling couples like Armand and Albert that their love didn't count under federal law. The film kept playing anyway. People kept laughing and crying and recognizing themselves on screen anyway. This box is for all of it. Y'All Means All: A Hint of Color is our sixth limited-edition box celebrating LGBTQ+ makers. Inside you'll find yarn hand-dyed by Rick of WhimzeeStitches, an LGBTQ+ maker in New Orleans (another family fav) whose color sense is exactly what this theme called for. Add a pattern chosen to show it off and a few extras that fit the story. All makers in this box identify as LGBTQ+. A portion of every sale goes to The Trevor Project, supporting crisis intervention and mental health resources for young LGBTQ+ lives. This edition is a limited run. We made a few extra so there's room to gift one and keep one. Ships November 2026. Ships November 2026.
