Stories worth the time they take to tell
Often called 'the National Geographic of the fiber industry,' we explore the world’s most remote corners to document the extraordinary artistry and culture of natural fibers.
Beyond the Sunday Read, our world includes curated tours, colorful books, and a bespoke collection of handmade treasures sourced directly from the artisans we meet along the way
The heart of wild fibers
Since 2004, we have specialized in featuring the farmers, shepherds, and nomads who dedicate their lives to raising these endearing animals. Beyond the fiber they harvest, many also depend on them for meat and dairy. Theirs is a full-time commitment, living in some of the most extreme climates—and they truly represent the heart of the industry.
Journey around the world with our archival issues as we offer a select number of our collection, featuring extraordinary stories about man and animal who have been defined by fiber traditions for generations, if not centuries.
This limited collection features some of our most sought-after chronicles, including:
-
Oman: The rhythmic precision of the last pit loom weavers.
-
Romania: Why the EU is poisoning pastures.
-
India: Life on the move with the nomadic Rabari herders.
-
Russia: How Australian Merinos found their way to Russian pastures.
