Anna, thank you sooooo much for sharing your trip to the farm! What an educational trip it was; you are, without a doubt, a most kind and thoughtful person; you have shared the wing-to- wing process of yarn making; I count myself an extremely fortunate person to receive the education you provide as I live in a large city and I am deprived of the wonders and gifts of our wonderful nature. I am in awe of how generous sheeps are and have been to us humans by providing the raw material to cloth us!! May you continue to prosper in all your endeavors, and once more, thank you so very much!! 😊
tihanks for including the yarn mill video, it was interesting. The shop was overwhelming. How to choose when there was so much.
Love Leila in the episode... she is so sweet
Wow, the farm looks like so much fun! Thank you for taking us with you, what an amazing place. xo.
I love your handspsun shawl. Your color choices are also so very nice. I really do enjoy watching your episodes.
Vielen Dank für die Fotos und das Video von deiner Reise. Es war sehr interessant. Ich fand die Hörner der Schafe so lustig.
Vielen Dank Iris! Ja es war sehr interessant die verschiedenen Hörner der Schafe zu sehen.
thanks for a farm tour, love seeing all the sheeps and other farm animals and the way the yarn has been treated. I love your shawl, beautiful color combination.
Thank you for taking us with you to the farm! I really enjoyed watching both the machines and the washing. So facinating!
Hi Anna,
Another great episode. Thanks so much for the insight into Swiss wool and yarns. Happy Spinning and Knitting!!! Roxanne.
This was such an amazing episode. The two minutes of kitty at the end was so relaxing to watch. And the water!!! So good Anna!!!
After watching this episode, I cleaned my house and had this super weird thought: can you think that it is possible to collect my cat hair, wash it, spin it.... all the fun stuff and knit it? a blanket for himself haha!
Anna thanks for taking us to the farm / carding mill and showing the process, what a fun trip for you and all of us.
The farm trip looked brilliant ! So interesting to see the machinery and all the sheep breeds they had. Thank you for sharing the footage :)
Thank you for sharing video of all the wonderful animals! Also, your shawl is lovely! Beautiful colors.
I am always so energized after watching your podcast. Your handknit Telja will be amazing! Thank you for sharing the mill visit with us - how cool!! What were in the packets labled Pflanzenfarben(?sp)
Enjoyed every minute of this lovely episode. I'll have to show all the cute sheep and goats to my kids too. Thank you!
Lila is such a cute cat, she looks so happy there in the sun!
Your shawl is very, very nice - the colors are so good together! I did enjoy the film of the trip to the wool farm, it was great to see the different types of sheep there - aren't their different types of horns amazing!
Congratulations on the 20th episode! Your podcasts are all really terrific, thank you Anna!
Hi, Anna. A new podcast from you is always a treat. Really enjoyed the tour. On our next trip to Switzerland, we'll have to check it out because I love visiting local farms. Your shawl is so lovely.
VERRRY wonderful episode! One 👍 is simply not enough!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I loved this episode, Anna! I was actually watching while I was outside dyeing my Shetland yarn and it was so nice to have your company while I was waiting for the dye pot to finish :) I was thinking a lot of you because of all of your discussions of hand dyeing. I ended up with a pretty red and a blue--both overdyed on top of a natural light brown. I really enjoyed your segment about the farm/mill visit as well. Such adorable sheep. It reminded me of the farm/mill that Spencer and I visited in NY a few years back--they had all of the HUGE, old carding equipment, too. And I'm curious to learn more about the lanolin--not only where to buy it in the states (I have not looked into it yet)--but also about the problem of pesticides that you discuss. Spencer has long theorized that we could extract the lanolin from the fleece I wash . . . I suspect it would be more difficult that it seems anyway, but I'm also glad we've never tried! Happy knitting to you! I'm off to catch up on your EYF episode! Thanks!! ~Melissa
I am just smitten with how your shawl came out. I paused the video a few times to get a good look at it. I have similar (very roughly) yarn and hope to make one also. I love the delicate one-knit in the center. I also never liked tassels before this moment. haha! Thank you for sharing it with us.
Your shawl is beautiful, and so are you! Every episode is a delight. I reserve them for times when I can pour a cup of coffee or tea, enjoy a delicious cookie, and top it off with a lovely podcast treat. I always learn something new, and you do an excellent job of teaching, informing, and inspiring. The farm was so interesting - I wish we had something similar here on west coast of the US. Maybe I could be your American mom. 😊❤️
Hello Anna :) Thank you for the beautiful podcast. Your shawl is gorgeous, perfect colors! Really enjoyed your clips of the farm and your kitty too!
I really enjoyed the outing to the wool workshop. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Oh Yay i was so excited watching to see that someone in France win! My favourite country because I’m a Francophile! I speak French!!!!! And the winner plant dyes!!!! So great! How awesome is that!!!!! I love giving, Anna!
Love the cat cameo at the end!
Thank you for the awesome farm tour! Even told my husband to watch as we love sheep and other farm animals!XO
Ohh how sweet! My boyfriend also really loves animals so it was a great outing for the two of us 😊
What a wonderful episode! I want to go to that farm so, so much! :D
IaMmeMilly I think we should have a field Dunkelgrun trip to the farm!
Wow, that shawl is just beautiful. Your knitting is very inspiring. I love your channel, I just joined the Ravelry group a week or two ago. :-)
Thank you so much! I am a bit behind in the ravelry group again 🙈 but happy you joined it and a very warm welcome!
Hi Anna, Your podcast is wonderful!! What a fantastic field trip you had to the mill. Thank you for sharing it with us. I would have had a hard time choosing as well. Your spinning is beautiful as well as all your other projects! Have a wonderful weekend!!
LOVE the clip about the farm/rare breed sheeps. A very nice addition.
I really enjoy your podcasts, thank you for doing them.
Liebe Anna, ich habe deinen Podcast vor ein paar Wochen beim abendlichen Stricken entdeckt und nun stückchenweise die alten Folgen nachgeholt. Ich bin sooo begeistert von deiner freundlichen, authentischen Art, deinen Spinnergebnissen und Strickprojekten (nicht so mainstream wie auf vielen anderen Podcasts) und den handgefärbten Wollsträngen!!
Another excellent podcast. Thank you for sharing the footage of the wool mill. I will certainly visit the farm in my future trip to Switzerland.
Another great episode. Can't wait to see what you are going to make with the rare Swiss sheep breed yarn.
Great podcast, Anna! Loved your tour of the farm and animals and shop goodies...! Also, congratulations on your 20th podcast, and achieving 5K subscribers! Well deserved!!! Take care!
So nice to spend the morning with you! The trip to the mill was wonderful, and I love the smiling kitty at the end of your video :-)
Hahahshshahaha, i laughed out loud at the end!! Almost dropping the yarn in the water!! 😂😂😂 oh and I loved seeing the fibre farm!! So much fibre and oh how beautiful was the natural yarn!!!! 😍
Wow 5000 subscriber? I didnt pay attention since I'm following you from the beginning but this is so well deserved! The segment at Schaukarderei was really interesting, thanks for sharing this with us.
Thank you so much Dominique! I also don’t know how that happened but it’s such a nice feeling that people want to come and watch my videos ❤️
Thanks for a great episode! 💕 especially the farm TOUR
Sehr interessant und schön - vor allem der Teil vom Spycher - einer meiner Lieblingsplätze zum Spinnen (Spinntreff)😀! Vielen lieben Dank 👍
Very good podcast! I really enjoyed your video from the sheep and wool farm. Cozy at its best. Thanks for your meticulous work.
Leila!! She’s such a gem 💕💕 also I’m so glad I watched to the end 😂😂😂
Thank you for such a fascinating video !!! What a wonderful place and thanks for sharing your experience ❤
Huge Congrats Anna 🎉🎊🎉 Love your podcast and the added video of the farm visit 😁
Your hand spun is a work of art! So pretttyyyy! I like the shawl vey very much.
As always loved the episode and the content . Your delightful shawl will hold fond memories . Thank you for sharing the farm visit too .Congratulations on 5k subscribers - well deserved :-)
Nice to see my friend's Lana Rara wool featured... beautiful. enjoy!
Your farm video and narration was outstanding!
I love your podcasts! Thank you so much for interesting content! This one makes me want to make a trip to Switzerland.
Thank you for the sheep farm tour!
I want to make a Telja too! Maybe I will spin and knit along. I have a beautiful black fleece that I have been waiting to process until I found some pattern inspiration. I think a dark colored Telja would be lovely! Great podcast!
Guten Tag Anna! I need to figure out how to get a German based keyboard on my computer so that I can do the accents properly. :). Your trip to the sheep farm and store looked wonderful - so many lovely things to see and do (and many tempting goodies to buy). Your podcasts are always a favourite treat for me. Tschuss! (imagine that you can see the two dots and the double s, lol)
Hi Sonya, dankeschön! I am happy you enjoyed it! By the way if you want to do special characters and your keyboard can’t do them, you can google them and then use copy paste ;-)
BEAUTIFUL yarn!
Interesting as ever. Thank you.
Your shawl is beautiful Anna ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for another wonderful episode, Anna! The wool farm tour was really interesting. I LOVE your little handspun shawl! Would you ever consider writing a pattern for it? It's just the right size and so simple! Loved to see your sweet kitty at the end!
Thanks for this episode! The farm you visited looks like heaven! (and your cat is awesome :p )
The mug had scheepjes in it. Scheepjes is a duch yarn brand which is especially known for its cotton.
Such a sweet cat you have, she is like my Max! Lovely episode and I love Spycher-handwerk. I went with my mom and sister and got lots of wool, lanolin and etc. It is a fiberista paradise!
Здорово!
Such a lovely podcast! And a big 💘😻 to your cat Leila at 49:49 !
The last few days I watched your podcast episodes chronically one after one; beginning with Episode #9 - because of the lovely shades of green on your thumbnail with the range of your rainbow coloured yarn!
Such a fun video Anna, thank you. P.S. Your cat is adorable. =^.^=
Would you be able to share your shawl pattern? I love the size, texture, and those colors. Malabrigo sure knows how to do color. I would love to make it out of the same yarn that you used but I don't spin so I would have to choose pre spun yarn. I really enjoy your podcasts. Thanks
Hi Andrea, thank you so much! I am happy you like the shawl. I think I could write down a basic shawl recipe.
great episode 😍
Very interesting episode, I love your the images from the farm. I visited Switzerland 20 years ago, but unfortunately I was not interested in wool back then... Nice discovery for me in your podcast : Miss FarFelue yarn, very pretty! I will keep an eye on her Etsy shop. Fun fact: she’s very local to me, like within 30min drive!
I luv that mug lol
Ich würde gerne Garn für einen Yokesweater spinnen, aber grade habe ich schon so viele Projekte :O Falls du einen SPAKAL für den Herbst planst (also spinnen & stricken), dann wäre ich bestimmt dabei :)
Anna! I really loved the trip to the farm place..makes me want to go to Switzerland. Where does one buy yarn for dyeing that has gone through the eco superwash process? Is there a specific name for this kind of wool?
How do you fold your handspun skein so pretty?, could you demonstrate that?
Ever thought of setting up a Lanolin-cleaning lab yourself? ;) It would be an amazing project to develope a method that can be done effectively in a smaller lab...
I am a geneticist and since the MinIon was released by Oxford nanopore I dream of a genetics-lab in my apartment... You know, sequencing just for fun. How awesome would be your own Lanolin purifying lab?
That would be so awesome! Something to dream about... but knowing the price of lab and analytics equipment I still would have to save a lot 🙈
oh yes, that´s very true... but maybe one day you meet someone who has a running lab and can get a PhD-student to develope something ;)
