Pride Month: Knitting and crochet projects in rainbow colors

Pride Month takes place every June to commemorate the Stonewall uprising, which happened in New York City in June 1969. The events that led to this uprising were an important turning point in LGBTQIA+ history and marked the beginning of the modern LGBTQIA+ movement.

Pride Month literally translates as "month of pride". In Germany, Pride Month is often also referred to as "LGBTQIA+ Pride Month" or simply "Pride Month".

The rainbow is a well-known symbol of Pride Month and the LGBTQIA+ community, because it stands for the diversity and beauty of the LGBTQIA+ community and also symbolizes the wish for unity and solidarity. It is a symbol of hope that embodies the vision of a world without discrimination and inequality for all people.

Each color of the rainbow has a special meaning.

• Red stands for life.
• Orange for healing.
• Yellow for the sun.
• Green for nature.
• Blue for harmony.
• Violet for spirit.

The rainbow symbol is often used on flags, clothing and other objects to stand up for the rights and visibility of the LGBTQIA+ community.
That is exactly why we at Gruendl celebrate diversity with many handmade knitting and crochet projects in rainbow colors.
