The Red Turtle
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This colorway begins with a sandy, sun-warmed yellow base, echoing the deserted shoreline where the film unfolds. Patches of pale blue and seafoam drift through the skein like the surrounding sea and sky, ever-present and endlessly calm. And then, a bold red emerges: intentional, striking, and impossible to ignore—just like the turtle at the heart of the story, a symbol of fate, love, and transformation.

The Red Turtle (2016) is a rare Studio Ghibli collaboration, directed by Dutch animator Michaël Dudok de Wit. Almost entirely wordless, the film relies on visual storytelling, natural sound, and a restrained color palette to explore themes of solitude, connection, life cycles, and harmony with nature. It was co-produced by Studio Ghibli and won the Special Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, later earning an Academy Award nomination for Best Animated Feature.

DELIVERY TIME:

This product is only available on pre-order. The listing will be live for less than a week (or until maximum capacity is reached, keep an eye on home page or social medias for updates), and I will then order the yarn from my supplier which takes 2 weeks to arrive. From there I do my best to dye, package and ship your order within a 4-6 weeks timeframe. This is my last shop update, and currently I estimate this would be delivered around mid March :)

SKEIN/CAKE:

By default my yarn is delivered as a 100gr skein, but if you do not have the winder to help you cake it, it can be quite laborious! Choose the cake option so I can do it for you and your yarn can arrive ready to cast-on!

LARGE ORDER DISCOUNTS:

In an effort or fairness to help those who need to purchase larger amount of yarn to knit garment of big size, I have therefore created several discounts. These discounts have been designed to facilitate an issue that larger folks are facing, please only use it if this description fits you. Head to the SWEATER QUANTITY ORDER to find the discount codes.

DIFFERENT BASE, DIFFERENT RESULTS:

Each fibre blend is different and therefore takes the colour in a different way. SuperWash yarns (SW) will be more vibrant than Non-SuperWash (NSW). 
The difference are very subtle, mostly in vibrance of colours, but please take it into account before ordering! Each base is different, and each batch is, even with the perfect recipe :)

If you are not happy with your product, please contact me to let me know. Depending on the issue, you may be able to be issued a full refund if you contact me under 2 weeks of receiving the items, and ship it back to me in it's original packaging, undamaged.
