“Color remembers what language forgets.”
Where Yarn Becomes Story
Yarnthropology was born from motion, memory, and making.
I’ve lived across cities and cultures, always drawn to unfamiliar streets and unexpected friendships. Travel wasn’t escape — it was becoming. Each place left a color, a feeling, a whisper I wanted to hold onto.
In the stillness of the pandemic, I picked up knitting. One hat turned into an obsession. But I couldn’t find yarn that matched what I’d seen — the pinks of a Thai market, the mossy greens of Iceland, the indigo of a Japanese vat. So I began dyeing.
Each skein became a souvenir. A story. A way to blend my love for anthropology with my craft.
To me, yarn is a living archive. It holds the texture of landscapes, of cultures, of moments too big for words. Yarnthropology is where I turn those memories into something you can hold, stitch, and share.
This isn’t just yarn. It’s a story — yours and mine.
We want our yarn to feel like memory—nostalgic, meditative, sacred.
To us, crafting isn’t just about making; it’s a moment of mindfulness. When time slows down and color becomes ritual, creativity becomes presence.
Each skein is a portal to that sacred pause—to wonder held in your hands.
