One of studio Ghibli most underrated gems, this skein draws its palette straight from the sun-soaked Adriatic world bathing the movie. A beige pink base mirror the film’s vintage, romantic atmosphere and the gentle blush tones often seen in Gina’s scenes and the interiors of the Adriano, a bold patch of red pays tribute to the iconic crimson Savoia S.21 seaplane ✈️ the heart of the film and Porco’s pride. Khaki washes reflect the pilot uniforms, rugged landscapes, and the earthy tones of the war-tinged backdrop.

Porco Rosso began as a short in-flight film for Japan Airlines, but Hayao Miyazaki expanded it into a full feature infused with his love of aviation. Set between the world wars, it’s both a lighthearted romp and a poignant reflection on identity and the scars of conflict.

Porco’s curse (turning him into a pig) is never fully explained, which Miyazaki intentionally left symbolic. And despite its whimsical premise, the movie carries some of Ghibli’s most grounded themes about love, loss, honour, and choosing your own sky.

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 :)
