We’re seeing red -- red hats!
This simple hat is offered as a small, but visible way to show up. The pattern includes three options: a plain hat, an
optional charted “resist” motif, or a heart motif — because love wins. Choose the version that speaks for you.
Textiles have long been used to carry meaning — sometimes quietly, sometimes clearly. This free pattern is shared in the spirit of care, solidarity, and continued engagement.

About Red Hats: Red hats of resistance are knit by makers as a quiet, visible way to express care, solidarity, and support for human dignity.
