Crochet a tiny orange sweater for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation - free crochet pattern.

Orange Shirt Day takes place each year on September 30.

It is an Indigenous-led grassroots commemorative day intended to raise awareness of the individual, family and community inter-generational impacts of residential schools, and to promote the concept of “Every Child Matters”.  The orange shirt is a symbol of the stripping away of culture, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations.
