PS - I got a giant pot from goodwill that is big enough for 5 skeins (usually a sweater's quantity for me) of yarn. Then I sometimes only use 1 or 2 of the AEF dye packs. =)

Look at you knitting all the things =) And wearing the things you knit. YES! Interestingly, my brother and I had to change instantly from "school clothes" to "play clothes" (last year's school clothes) when we got home in the afternoon, but mom always said about her beautiful china and colored cut glass " I know that by using this someday a piece will get broken, but that would be better than never getting to use it". I hold on to the latter philosophy for my handknits. Happy Thanksgiving!

Pie purchasers unite!

Very impressive self spun cotton top! And I'm looking forward to seeing your Fruity Knitting project 😊

I am coveting your washing machine.

Excellent

Thanks for the tip about knitting alpaca with a more complicated stitch pattern to help minimize the growth/stretching! I have SO much alpaca fiber to work through and have been a little stumped about what to do with it. Your advice helped spark some project ideas!

I love that blue sweater that you are wearing in this video!

So interesting to learn about alpaca and how it compares to wool. Thanks! 🦙

Nice to meet you! Sorry to hear that there was this fleece club that I missed out on! Would you ever consider repeating it in the future?

Thanks, I have been putting off spinning my alpaca cuz I wasn't sure about my skills. Will for sure do a blend to start. Love your cat!

I'm very much looking forward to beginning to spin this winter. Thank you for your Channel and for the content.

I spun that alpaca in one sitting the day it arrived! Lovely stuff! Thanks, Kim.😍

Hi from south Australia. I have been spinning for about 30 years, and spinning mostly alpaca. I've never really had a problem with it. I would love to buy some of your rovings, but not sure if it would clear customs!!

Hi Kim, I knit a friend a pair of alpaca/ Romney blended socks. He loves them and they keep his feet nice and warm.

Hi Kim. Thanks for featuring alpaca! I love to spin alpaca/wool blends. I have not had much luck spinning 100% alpaca. My problem is with plying. The singles untwist and fall apart before I can get them into the orifice. Any tips?

Omg I have the same drop spindal!!! Enjoy dear!

What is that first machine called?

Good girls 🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑🐑

Mike does a great job, he's calm, the sheep are calm. Big fluffy beautiful fleece! The chickens photo-bombing you, they are show-offy.

Awww, Cuddlebug 🧡

I love watching the shearing!

Love Cuddlebug’s face 🤩❤️ And all the fiber looks sooo nice!😍

Wow. What brand is your spinning wheel? It looks so evenly balanced.

Siiiick!

Spinning vinyl.

Love this shop!!

Michael is an amazing shearer! He takes such care with your gorgeous wool. And I think Cuddlebug said good bye for you! Thanks for sharing.

Love seeing the sheep and Cuddle bug! what cuties =) And hearing the chickens. Great day on the farm, and so much pretty fiber.

Hi! I am new to your channel and I will visit again! I am a shepherdess and a spinner. I enjoyed seeing all the beautiful wool and your spins! Take good care!

Hi there! Just wondering if your washer needs a special setup to drain the lanolin water? I've always avoided putting my fiber waste water through my septic system, but I don't really know if that caution is warranted or not. I love your content btw. Thanks for being here... especially now.

If only I found the time to make a whole outfit of yarn that I spun myself, and knitted to gsrments. Just like my ancestors did. Skirt, sweater, mittens, socks...

Do you use soap or anything?

My son has an alpaca farm, it’s cool to see the process of how he gets it back. He has most of his turned into yarn, but I do a bunch of asking for some of it in spinning form. Right now I’m spinning some alpaca cria fiber, it’s of so soft!!!

Look at you in your pretty cowl =). Good to see you and all the gorgeous wool! xo

I think in moments like this there's no better way to feel better than making something with your hands ❤

I enjoyed every moment of this video, but was surprised (and so, so heartened) by the ending. Thank you for putting into words how so many of us feel right now. I'm doing my best to avoid election-related content -- videos like yours soothe my frayed nerves. I'm subscribing to your channel and sending good wishes to you and the people you love.

I have watched nothing but making videos and I just found you. I love watching about the process of making hand dyed yarn. Thank you for your comments as I am disappointed and sad and you made me feel better.

So good for the soul to watch this today! Thank you. 🐑

Cocteau Twins?

Was just playing this fir Maxi today! Pixies that is.

That sure puffed up !! Can you turn off the lights and check out that static electricity?

I’ve watched this video multiple times in the last 24 hours. I used it to quiet my brain to fall asleep last night, and watching it during my coffee this morning. Thank you for all you do!

Thanks for the video! That alpaca roving looks so good, I hope it makes it to the website so I can buy some! I’m so glad to hear Mill Day is coming back! I sadly won’t be able to make it because my in-laws will be here until the next day. I can’t wait to see everyone again. ❤

those colours! the caramel colored alpaca! yum

Thanks Kim, for your wonderful video, we’re dealing with the spectrum of feelings in Canada. I completely agree with your sentiments about finding something beautiful in one’s day your fibre is beautiful, I love Wool Wednesday. ❤

Wool therapy, yessss ❤

I love watching the carding. I'm envious as ji usually get my fleece by whole fleece cc and your machine would make it sooo much eadier

I just unsubscribed to all of my political podcasts and sat with a moment watching this episode of Wool Wednesday. It’s been a while since I’ve enjoyed spending time with my favorite fiber videos. Making and spending “time” with like minded folks certainly is a healthy way to go. Thank you for deciding to record today ❤
