How it works
Valkyrie Fiber takes a story-driven approach to yarn. Every skein starts in Iceland, where we source wool from local sheep; hardy, weather-shaped, and full of character. From there, it travels to Portland, where it's blended with merino, spun, and finally hand-dyed in small batches by myself and Sveina.
Each drop is built around a specific idea, feeling, or place, often drawn from the landscapes and stories of Iceland: lava fields, volcanic ash, moss-covered cliffs, shifting skies.
Colorways are created in limited runs. Once a drop sells out, that story is closed. No restocks. No repeats. When you subscribe to the newsletter, you’ll get early access to upcoming releases and a first look at the inspiration behind each palette; Whether it’s a memory, a mood, or a myth we can’t stop thinking about.
This is yarn with a journey. From Iceland to Portland, from raw wool to rich color. Made slowly, intentionally, and always with a story in mind.

Previous Color Stories
Storytelling through yarn.
Valkyrie Fiber is a small-batch yarn company focused on hand-dyed Icelandic sheep wool and merino. Each skein is created in limited runs, no mass production, no exact repeats, just intentional color, rooted in texture, feeling, and story.
All dyeing is done in-studio with care, curiosity, and a deep respect for the process. The colorways are inspired by Iceland - its lava fields, moss-covered cliffs, shifting skies, and quiet intensity. We believe color is emotional. Yarn should have a soul. And making something slowly, by hand, still matters.
Welcome to Valkyrie Fiber
Storytelling through yarn.
Valkyrie Fiber is a story-driven, small-batch yarn company rooted in Icelandic heritage and spun with intention.
Each skein begins with Icelandic wool, washed at the source, then shipped to Amy’s mill in upstate New York, where it’s spun together with buttery-soft Merino into a one-of-a-kind base that doesn’t exist anywhere else. It’s not mass-produced. It’s not repeatable. It’s unicorn yarn...crafted in small drops, never duplicated, and dyed by hand in Amy's Portland studio.
The colorways are inspired by the Iceland Amy calls home: stormy coastlines, mossy valleys, lighthouses, lava fields, and the hush of snow settling on volcanic rock.
Valkyrie Fiber believes yarn should carry weight: emotional, tactile, and creative. Color should tell a story. And slowness, especially when it’s deliberate, is still sacred.
