- Rhinebeck! Rhinebeck! It seems like all we’ve been talking about for the past few weeks/months and it’s finally here. We take you along for the ride on our first year vending (and Peg’s first year attending) the New York Sheep and Wool Festival. How quickly did our Cider Doughnuts colorway sell out? Who did we run into? How does one transport a metric Rhinebeck of yarn? Find all this out and more in this week’s episode.

What an amazing event!!! And seeing the Lindal Skirt on Marra completely made my day! The Vermont Vice in that is gorgeous! Originally designed for US2 needles, Marra decided work on US6 with JFM fiber and not only is the result stunning, it will definitely cut the knitting time down using the larger needles. I love to see individuals really take on a project and make it their own. There are so many ways to do things and this is a great example! And Tom wearing three of my designs! So much fun! I seriously wanted to hug each and every person there. Thank you to everyone who came out and to everyone who took the time to participate in this KAL! xoxox
OMG are you two just about the cutest ever. So nice to hear laughter and fun - we all need a bit more of that. It is the BIGGEST deal that you got in Rhinebeck and I hope it was everything you hoped for and more. I love the go with you took us on. ❤😂
What a dream team you are! Lovely to hear all about your first Rhinebeck experience as vendors.
You ladies rock…… I’m so glad that Rhinebeck was so successful for you, you all work so hard to bring to the world of knitting a great product. Thank you for your energy and creativity you certainly have livened up the knitting world. Keep on keeping on. Thank you. Eileen
Thank you so much!!
I agree with everyone…your positivity always jumps out of the screen - and the giggles this time are pure gold! Congratulations for your ongoing success. You absolutely have earned it and deserve all of the good fortune that comes your way (that quote that the harder you work, the luckier you get surely applies). I hope to see you the Sunday of NE Fiber and definitely can’t wait for the November open house with my family! Keep having fun and loving wool and each other ❤
Always enjoy your millcast! I think I was smiling the whole episode.
Thank you for sharing your Rhinebeck experience! ❤❤❤
Best millcast ever. You guys are too cute for words. Thanks .
Had a great time seeing everyone at the Torkel meetup. So much fun! Glad you had a good show - your location is perfect
Agree, totally got colder as Sunday went on. Such a pleasure meeting you and loving your follow up video!
Thank you for sharing videos of NYSW and providing your review on the event. I imagine both of you are tired, still, from the hectic weekend. I am glad you were able to vend at NYSW! I so enjoy following your podcast, both for learning about the mill as well as to participate in the lovely relationship you two have developed as business partners.
Very fun MillCast!! Super great seeing you at Rhinebeck and participating in the Tørkle Meetup 🎉🎉🎉
It was so much fun to learn your story at this event! I can't believe that you only started knitting in the last two years! You definitely have an eye for it. Thank you to your family for the encouragement to start. And thank YOU for your very kind support!
Thanks @woldten !!! Yup, my “knitting career” is now a full 11 months 😂
Seriously incredible! @@therealtomkreider
So glad you guys had a great experience. Its fun seeing your excitement
Thanks for sharing all about your experiences at Rhinebeck. My favorite part of this video was your wonderful giggling session at the beginning due to probably sheer exhaustion but very contagious and brought a huge smile to my face!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Ok you two ladies are awesome. It was so nice to meet you'll.❤.
Wow. Make sure to take a little time off. Be good to yourselves. You are amazing. Thanks you are my first Rhinebeck podcast.
What a lovely time! I enjoyed meeting you both and am so happy to have snagged some Cider Doughnuts yarn. I love all things JFM. :)
Wow! Thank you for sharing your experience especially for those of us unable to attend.
Absolutely loved getting to meet you & am so excited to work with the yarn I got from your mill! 🩷
It was so Wonderful to meet you guys! Love to hear about your successes!!
I'm one of the lucky to get 2 of the Apple Cider yarn 🎉! Can't wait to knit with it!!
Your Smiles and warmth are so welcoming
Thank You guys for sharing your adventures!! Hugs from Tennessee!!
The photo of your group on the hill is precious!
Oh, did you two have fun! You're as punchy college kids after an all nighter!! Get some rest and thanks a million for the joy you bring to your endeavors.
You two are so joyous and beautiful, it is contagious! Thank you!
Oh, I was like a giddy school girl meeting you two!! Lol. You two are the best! I was hoping to get some of the cider donut colorway, but that was gone!😮 which is awesome for you!!!! I did get my hands on " Leaves in the Brook" and will be making the lindal Torkle. Pictures will come later.
You put a lot of hard work into the show and your set up was beautiful. I would love to visit you mill one day.
We hope you can visit some day too!
omg.....your blog popped up with Rhinebeck and I just read your story.....can't wait to deep dive into previous blogs.
Thanks for the Rhinebeck recap. I hope to attend one day with my daughter.
Wouldn't that be great!
You guys are the sweetest! Hope to see you in Springfield ❤
Nice to meet you guys…will be following❤ I was born and raised in dutchess county, married a dairy farmer , then moved to central ny, still dairying. As a child my parents bought a 200 acre Maine island in 1940. We had about 50- 75 wild sheep on the island. My life with sheep. Always have had sheep since. We can no longer travel, so your reports on wool make me feel happy. I was the first wool judge at Rhinebeck, had to reject 90% of the fleeces they were so awful. I was the first person to bring angora bunnies to the festival. I had to convince the sheep Assn. That other fiber animals would help the festival…we now know how that worked out. My friend Patricia Barry was in charge of the festival and had to convince others that bringing busses up from nyc would help sales….guessed that worked! The festival was in the two livestock barns on livestock hill. The breed sheep sale was a big deal. I am so impressed by you guys….I’ve been spinning for 52 years…..doesn’t mean I’m any better at doing lt…ha,ha. Best to you both…💥💥🐑🐑
Wow! Thank you for sharing some Rhinebeck history. And how on earth did your parents decide to buy 200 acres on a Maine Island. It sounds so cool, but we're guessing it was also a challenging lifestyle.
Great to see you and hope you got some sleep!!! 😊
I discovered your podcast searching for “Rhinebeck 2023”, and have subscribed. Thanks for such a fun recap of the event. Our little group of five did not make it to all the barns, and unfortunately we did not see your booth. I will look for you next year!
It was so great to meet you both this weekend! And I DID get tons of compliments on my Lindal skirt lol. I'm so happy to have a matching Vermont Vice tote to go with it!
Marra - it was so fabulous!!! Thank you for knitting it up in JFM! It was great to see and that color was amazing!
Great episode! I will see you in West Springfield.
West Springfield needs a fall colorway!! Cider Donuts 2?? So glad Rhinebeck worked out for you all, it is a lot of work, congrats! I could not make it - but you helped with my FOMO!
We don't think we have enough time to dye and spin another round for FFNE!
@@junctionfibermill Peggy, I don't see Junction Fiber Mill on the vendor list for FFNE. Could be just a timing issue, but wanted to let you know.
Thank you so much this us my 2nd time to watch you guys don't know how I missed you but definitely won't be my last. Loved the torkle will have to make on am looking forward to more episodes now going to check out your online store 😊
So glad you found us!
So happy for you guys! What a great way to start my day, with your giddy giggles.
Love you guys. So glad Rhinebeck was a good experience for Junction Fiber Mill. When I heard that you had 40 skeins of Cider Doughnuts, I thought OMG I am not sure 400 would have been enough. I love following along your journey with you. Did Todd miss all this happiness at Rhinebeck?
I was there at Rhinebeck and bought your Making Tracks for the Raven's Roost Revisited KAL! I loved Cassidy's color combo that I had to pick the same skeins. ❤
Was fun to watch you recap while completely slap happy from exhaustion! Great to hear what a wonderful reception you got from everyone at “the place that shall not be mentioned” 😂
Can’t believe you got a Millcast up so quickly after your incredibly busy, fun and exhausting weekend! Love seeing and hearing about how your first time vending at Rhinebeck went. Sounds like you sold lots of yarn and had a fun time on The Hill with all of the Torkle makers. Your Millcast helped with my FOMO since I couldn’t attend but was able to see it through your eyes. Thanks so much!
SO exciting and SO appropriately giddy!! Couldn’t have happened to nicer people!😊❤
You both are so cute. It is so great to see two women getting along so well. It's very rare.
Great to see you at Rhinebeck, and so glad you had a successful weekend! Your location rocks!
You two made my day, it was fabulous to meet you and see your yarn in person. Meg
So glad to hear you had fun and a successful weekend at the wool festival. 🇬🇧
Thank you. It was my first time at Rhinebeck. It was a bit overwhelming. Your booth was the first on my designated visitor list. I was disappointed that cider donuts was sold out.. but so happy for your success. Peggy thanks for the hug… you both are an inspiration with your energy and positivity. Keep up the good work. I’m hoping to see you at Russell’s this winter.
I was at Rhinebeck last year and am knitting in bed while watching. Loving your “giddy” recap!
So good to see you both at NY Sheep & Wool! Fun to watch your recap! Your booth was amazing and you knocked it out of the park for your first Rhinebeck! I also picked up a needle case across from your booth. Missed your special colorway though! Rest up - if you can! 🧶🧶🧶
What a great team you two make. I missed R this year but won’t next. Thanks for giving me a peak. ❤️
You 2 are so freaking cute and I'm so happy that you had fun! See you at the Big E!
just stumbled across your MillCast and am loving it. I went to the online store and notice that your yarns are all DK weight. As a lover of sock knitting, I was just wondering it you have any fingering weight yarns?
Glad you found us. We hope to have sport weight yarns in 2024. Not sure we'll have lighter yarn than that. We're waiting for our new spinner to arrive to experiment with lighter yarns!
Forgot to ask what sweater Peggy was wearing when you first got to Rhinebeck? It looks mitered and has 3 colors (brown, cream and a rosy color). Reminds me of my Ginny’s Cardigan by Medrith Glover I knit years ago.
It is an out of print pattern called Elektra by Twisted Sisters. You might track it down on Raverly.
Thanks, Peggy! Believe it or not, I have that pattern booklet from when I knit 2 Manons!
What a great podcast, thanks! But Peggy, Peggy, Peggy... I'm guessing that you and I are similar in age, but WHAT is the secret of your amazing energy?!?!
No caffine, I'll tell you that. Just very jazzed about what our little engine that could has accomplished and what it can do next!
😂❤😂❤
Do you know what booth number you're going to have in Springfield? I can't find you on the vendor list.
We will be at 149/50/51 North!
You didn't discuss Peggy's sweater from day one of the place-that-shall-not-be-names! Next time, please!
