Which stockpile tab is used for Wool-Yarn?
As the title says, I've been shearing my animals and I've got dozens of stockpiles for what I thought would cover everything yet my dwarves refuse to move the wool-yarn after it's been spun from the wool (sheep wool, llama wool, etc) Can someone tell me what stockpile is used for them? I even tried looking on the wiki and googling it but there are no clear answers.

Not sure then, outside of sharing the save file (and even then there is no way to say for sure we can figure it out).

I suppose I'll give it another year.. Maybe I can try dismantling the workshops and see if that forces them to take action.

at first glance I don't see a problem with your stockpile, however I wouldn't combine Leather + Cloth groups. Mixed Bins can be an issue - ie left at the Trader, and they don't want to take them back to a stockpile.

Personally I turn OFF (to stop dwarfs having jobs, that mix thread/silk with cloth)
auto collecting webs
auto spin threads

Shouldn't be a reason they shouldn't put cloth/thread in a default Cloth stockpile, other than not enough Bins or Dwarfs have too many tasks already.

Don't give it another year, disable all other jobs and see if dwarves will start hauling the threads to the stockpile.
