In partnership with The William Morris Society

William Morris (1834–1896) was an artist, craftsman, poet, scholar, revolutionary thinker and socialist. Today, he may be best known for his wallpaper and textile patterns, but his work transformed Victorian England’s view on craftsmanship, design and fashion.

The William Morris Society, established in 1955, is a charity and a cultural institution dedicated to safeguarding and preserving the heritage of William Morris. West Yorkshire Spinners have worked closely with the William Morris Society to produce a yarn deserving of this unique heritage. West Yorkshire Spinners' skilled craftspeople have a long-standing love and knowledge of British wool, understanding the unique breeds and how to blend fibres to produce the finest yarns. They pride themselves on their process, craft, and attention to detail. WYS are passionate about keeping this heritage skill set and manufacturing alive in the UK.
