Meet Your Yarn Colorway Stories
Every Skein Tells a Story.
Welcome to the heart of Forever Winding Wool. The "Meet Your Yarn" series is a collection of handspun yarn colorways (some limited editions!) born from the rich history, rugged landscapes, and resilient people of West Virginia.
We believe that the most beautiful projects are made with yarn that has a soul. Here, you won't just find a color; you'll find a connection. Each skein is a tangible piece of a story, waiting for you to continue its narrative with your own two hands.
How It Works
- Discover a Story: Below, you’ll find our growing library of West Virginia yarn stories. Each one is a short journey to a specific time and place in the Appalachian Mountains.
- Meet the Colorway: As you read, you’ll see how the colors of the yarn were pulled directly from the world of the story—from the dark waters of a river, the last fiery leaves on a tree, or the faded paint on a company store.
- Cast On a Piece of History: These small-batch, collectible yarns are released after their story is told. They are more than fiber; they are a tribute to the beauty of everyday life in West Virginia.
