Tell Tale Heart

For makers who know that some things don’t stay buried — no matter how carefully you try to silence them.

Tell Tale Heart is tension made visible: searing arterial crimson striking through inky black, bold enough to feel alive, unsettled, and impossible to ignore. This is red without romance — sharpened, exposed, and pulsing with quiet unrest.

There’s something uneasy in the way it moves. The color doesn’t sit still; it flickers, emerges, recedes — like a rhythm you weren’t meant to notice, but now can’t unhear. The black doesn’t soften it. It deepens it, framing the red in a way that feels deliberate, watchful… and just a little too close.

Dyed on the Scirocco Sock base — a twisted blend of black and hand-dyed color — this fingering weight yarn delivers contrast, depth, and a subtle visual tension that builds across the fabric. The black acts as both shadow and structure, sharpening the crimson until it feels almost audible.

Tell Tale Heart isn’t loud in the crowd
It doesn’t need to be.
Some things make themselves known whether you want them to… or not.
