RED

Did you know that February is American Heart Month? Did you know that heart disease kills more women than all forms of cancer combined? Stitch Red aims to inform women of the dangers of heart disease and provides information about staying heart healthy.

What can you do to help?

  • Berroco has designated Vintage color #5150 Berries as a Stitch Red product. 5% of the profits on this yarn will be donated to the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health.
  • During the month of February, purchase the HeartStrings FiberArts"Thinking of You" pattern through Natural Stitches' Ravelry In-Store Sales Program, plus red yarn to knit it with, and receive 20% off those items! For each pattern/yarn combination sale, Natural Stitches will donate $5 to the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) . If we sell more than 50 "Thinking of You" pattern/yarn combinations this month, we will double the donation!

Most important of all, how can you help yourself? 80% of women between the ages of 40 and 60 have one or more risk factors for heart disease. Risk factors include age (55 and older), high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, being overweight, being physically inactive, and having a family history of early heart disease. Many risk factors can't be changed, but others can. Learn more by visiting The Heart Truth.
