#aro arrows

Today's bookmark post features a collection of cross-stitch arrow motifs with striped fletching variations for three, four, five, six, seven and nine-stripe horizontal pride flags. I wanted a design that would show off both the aro flag--in the text "aro" along the arrow shaft--and another aro-spectrum flag, as many of us identify our aromanticism with more than one identity term or flag.

For more information on constructing the bookmark, including folding, stitching and fringing, please see this tutorial.

[image description: five sets of two lockscreens featuring a design of repeated arrows banded in the colours of various allosexual aromantic spectrum pride flags. The left lockscreen features the arrows set against a gradient background matching its respective flag colours; the right features the arrows set against a plain white background. Flags included are: allo-aro (green/light green/white/yellow/gold), allo-aro spectrum (green/aqua/bright pink/light blue/white/yellow/gold), loveless allo-aro (dark to light grey gradient/light green/yellow/gold/light to dark grey gradient), allo-aro agender (green/light green/white/light green/white/yellow/gold) and allo-aro aplatonic (gold/yellow/white/light green/blue).]

Allo-Aro Arrow Lockscreens, Part One

Flags: Allo-Aro, Allo-Aro Spectrum, Loveless Allo-Aro, Allo-Aro Agender, Allo-Aro Aplatonic.

I’m gathering my allo-aro lockscreens (mostly because I can never remember if I’ve reblogged them here!) for easy viewing in the one post.

Post 6 (Final Post): Have Pride!

I made a aromantic/arospec icon and banners that are free to use and I would love for you to @ me if you use them! 

I also posted some Aromantic Arrow Stickers on my etsy shop! 

And always remember that it’s okay if you’re not comfortable with displaying your pride flag or just don’t want to. All that matters is that you have pride in who you are and you remember to love yourself, and that you are loved.

This has been an amazing Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week 2021 💚🖤

I will continue to spread awareness and positivity about aros as part of my blog so stay tuned!

A brown arrow shaft runs across the centre of the letters, forming the horizontal strokes of the letters "A" and "R". A grey arrowhead sits in front of the text; flag-stripe fletching sits behind it. Each image is available in two versions with black or transparent background.

Stripes are coloured in the following pride flags: allo-aro (green/light green/white/yellow/gold), aromantic (green/light green/white/grey/black) and non-sam aro (cyan/light cyan/white/light green/green).]

The arrow has a grey head, a long shaft coloured in two shades of tan and four, five or seven stripes of fletching radiating outward in diagonal lines from the shaft. The arrow sits atop a black or dark grey background and is outlined in white. The fletching on each arrow is coloured to match one of six different pride flags: abroromantic (mint green/light mint green/very light grass green/light pink/pink), amid (dark grey/grey/white/light blue/navy), aromantic aplatonic (lime/green/blue/purple/dark grey), demiromantic (green/light green/black/white/light grey), cupiroflux (grey/coral pink/white/lime) and romo aro (green/light green/white/pink/white/grey/black.]
