Craft yourself a tiny tee for Orange Shirt Day to commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30th. This tiny pin is incredibly easy to follow, and comes with both crochet and knitting so we can all create together. Please make, sell, and share to support this mission and message!

Phyllis Webstad from the Stswecem’c Xgat’tem First Nation sparked the tradition when she shared her powerful story of having her orange shirt taken on her first day at residential school. We wear orange shirts to reflect on the legacy of residential schools and honour the survivors and the children who never returned home.

Every Child Matters.
