“The Bluest Eye” on Various Yarn Bases

The Bluest Eye Inspired by The Bluest Eye, Toni Morrison’s debut novel, this Banned Book colorway honors a work that remains essential, challenging, and deeply affecting. Set in the 1940s in Lorain, Ohio, the novel examines the destructive impact of racism and imposed beauty standards through the eyes of eleven-year-old Pecola Breedlove. Morrison’s writing is unflinching and compassionate, revealing how systemic harm seeps quietly into childhood, identity, and self-worth. The story’s setting carries personal meaning as well — Ohio was home to me for nearly twenty years, adding another layer of connection to this powerful work. This colorway reflects the novel’s emotional depth and complexity, offering a subdued, thoughtful palette intended to be worn, held, and reflected upon — not rushed past. Available Yarn Bases This colorway is available on various Laughing Cat Fibers yarn bases. Half Skeins Available Fingering: 218 yards per skein Worsted: 109 yards per skein Please select
