In order to keep the fiber supply chain flowing and production levels commensurate with quality, we periodically retire older colorways to make room for new hues. This helps ensure a manageable workload for our domestic manufacturing partners and their small teams while enabling us to reinvigorate our core yarn lines with fresh, evolving palettes. These legacy colorways are no longer available but their beauty lives on in the projects of makers near and far.

LIMITED EDITION YARNS
In addition to our core yarn lines, we also produce limited edition yarns and colorways using small-batch practices. This includes small runs of specialty spins as well as our Ranch series, which highlights wool from a single ranch and honors its rancher. These thoughtful ventures enable us to work with smaller ranches and single flocks to bridge the gap between maker and manufacturer.
