Love Love love your energy and your yarns. I am an official yarn snob, your beautiful colors and fun tutorials have brighten many a day. Thank you for this lovely show and tell of the shop. I get your free patterns, and by your yarns over and over again. The quality is superb and your colors are dreamy. Thanks again for all you do. I look forward to seeing your free patterns every Friday. If we never meet in person, I just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate what you bring into the world. You and Tim are gifts to all of us who have found our way to your world. Thanks ever so much! Muah!
Thank you so much for the sweet words! They make my heart swell! All the best to you, too!
I love that you let them dye in their own home. That's so helpful for many folks.
😊
1. Nice lady with fun, bubbly personality
2. Nice shop
3. YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAarrrrrrrrrrrrrrnnnnnnn!!!
Loved your film, Chandi! I'm always curious about the other side of the camera. And you're so good to us to show your bloopers. It's easy for we plain folk to think of you and Tim as, well somehowdifferent, like polished famous actors. Your films are polished, it all looks effortless. We're all in this life together and you two make it feel warmer, kinder. After this last week we needed this. Thanks for your joy. Now back to knitting! ♡
Thank you so much for your kind words. All the best to you!
The real candy shop in my opinion is those shelves full of yummy yarn!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥳🥳🥳. Thanks for this fantastic tour and the beautiful pattern!! 🙏🙏
You are so welcome!
Oh, what a pretty workplace! And i love the bloopers so much, always make me giggle. You are a womderful human being, so kind, so radiant, and your videos always lifts the mood. And your newsletter too, love how you designed it, love the inspirational words. (And i love Tims laugh in the bloopers! Such a warm laugh)
Oh, thank you!
I would have to say that is one of the most beautiful rooms in the world. Filled with endless possibilities! Thanks for sharing with us.
Our pleasure!
Soooo AWESOME that you are living your best life and realizing your dream!!! Great place!! Thx for the tour and the free patterns!! 😁🥰💕💕💕💕
Our pleasure!
I find you extremely kind and caring you're a wonderful lady I could tell from your videos how effervescent you are and I only wish you the best thank you for your videos I look forward to seeing them....
You are so welcome! And thank you for the kinds words!
I love your cozy atmospheric videos. You are a superwoman! I wish prosperity to your business.
Thank you so much! That's very kind of you!
Your story has given me so much hope. And I enter every contest hoping and praying that I win. I’ve bought some of your yarn with some birthday money and I’m so addicted I’m on disability so I can’t afford it. One day I will win!
It’s also given me the idea to make my own animal training business that’s what I’ve always wanted to do and the story has helped me get there
That's wonderful! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Oh my gosh! You are from North Pole Alaska! I lived in Fairbanks from 1989 to 2020. We probably know the same people. I love your channel and your modeling is beautiful. So happy for you that you are living your dream. Thank you.
So cool! Thanks for watching!
Wow!!! Your shop is lovely. I think I would have thought I died and gone to heaven with all that yarn. Hi Tim. Heard him say Hello. Love the bloopers. Your shop is amazing. I'm going to stop by sometime to say hi.
I'm so happy you enjoyed our video. Unfortunately, our shop/warehouse isn't open to the public.
I just stumbled upon this video and even though its been a year since you posted it, I would like to say.....OH MY GOODNESS!!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!! I can see you are so happy talking about your business. Your personality is so addictive. Many blessings to you and your staff and of course Tim. Abundance of blessings to you
Love love the studio tour! Bravo for achieving your dream! I got a real sinking feeling when you said it's not a shop because I travel up to North Carolina every fall and would definitely made a trip to see you to stock up on some yarn a priority. So happy for you all Chandi. A loading dock was a must with all the beautiful blanks you have delivered and store. It's an inspiration.
Thank you so much!
I thought I had lost you forever because months ago I only wrote down the name of one of your patterns (cool comfort). Put that into a search and here I am! Thank goodness and very good for you! I do not need any yarn now, but I did subscribe. Happy day!!
Awesome! I'm glad you found us again!
I would also like to see a video of the yarn being dyed...the whole process from start to finish! It's so interesting and a wonderful blessing to create the lovely colorways for all of us to enjoy 😉
Thanks for the suggestion!
@@ExpressionFiberArts I agree. I would love to see the yarn dying process as well as how you get the speckles and color changes in your beautiful yarn.
What a delightful video! Now I know where all your beautiful light comes from.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are a special soul. Thank you for sharing your space.
You are so welcome!
What a great tour! My dream come true would be to work around all those luscious yarn!! I would love to see a video on how your yarns are dyed, as they are all so exquisite and unique!!💗
Thanks so much!
What a nice bright work environment. Your yarns are stunning and the patterns are unique. Thank you for the tour!!!
You are so welcome!
So glad your close.
Thanks! However, our yarns are only sold online at www.expressionfiberarts.com/
Omg... I love your little piece of heaven! Thanks for adding the bloopers...so cute! I am a bit of a yarn addict, ok huge yarn addict, so this was my weekly fix.lol ... my local friends tease me in telling me I have more yarn than Hobby Lobby... probably true...
Thank you for all the free patterns! I always look for them in my email!
Maria
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
So happy for your amazing achievement! Here is wishing you and your team continuous success in all your endeavours!
Thank you so much!
You are amazing, Chandi! You are an inspiration and have such a talent. I can't afford to buy your yarn YET, but I will! It's incredible and so worth it. I would enjoy every stitch immensely. 💓
Thank you so much!I hope you get to work with or yarns soon. 💕
Thank you Chandy for the beautiful behind the scene video😘
Glad you liked it
I truly LOVE yarn. Since the pandemic, I haven’t been able to really buy. Do you ever have giveaways? I love to crochet because it really helps me with my stress. I will have to check out your website as soon as I start back working. I hope you do have a clearance section. Thanks again!!

I agree with “Good Day”, a real candy store is a yarn shop filled with beautiful colors and textures. Enjoyed the tour. Thank you😍
You are so welcome!

Drooling! Talk about a knitter / crocheters dream OMG! Awesome!
So glad you enjoyed it!
What a wonderful space! I have to say, I enjoy your yarn, your patterns, and your videos so much, but even more, I enjoy your stellar customer service. I've managed to screw up two orders from you already, and your team has been absolutely wonderful in untangling (see what I did there?) the mess and getting me set up for success. Even if your products weren't as beautiful as they are (and they are!), I'd keep coming back. Thank you for being a light!
Thank you so much, and you're welcome! I work with some amazing people for sure!
I love your enthusiasm. You are wonderful. Thank you for the tour of your workplace.
Thank you so much!
I love hearing you and Tim interact! It's so sweet! Thank you for the tour. :) I'm pretty new (less than 2 years) and just recently purchased my first dyed yarns. Faerie Wren and Anna's Hummingbird. Congrats on the realization of your dreams and continued success. I'd love to see where the yarn comes from (the farms) as well as how they're dyed. A whole "the life's journey of an Expression Fiber Arts dyed yarn". Thank you again! This was so fun!
Our pleasure!
Wow cool Love how its been a do it yourself. Thanks so much. So great to see where all my beautiful yarn comes from!!
So glad you enjoyed it!
My best wishes for you!Be healthy, creative,successful in everything you do!!!💗💗💗💗💗
Thank you so much! And the same to you!

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Very beautiful sweater, was hoping for a pattern and voila! Your workplace is beautiful, a dream job for me. Would love to work with you, your energy and cheerfulness is very contagious. 💖
Thank you so much!
Wonderful tour, LOVE YOU patterns and yarns .
Thank you so much!
It's a year later and I still want that pile of yarn you're laying on for taking a nap!
Love your awesome sweater. Thankyou for sharing you beautiful work space. Looks like a great place to spend lots of time. Love being with fiber all fibers. Love your channel 💕🌻🤗
You are so welcome! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I love your blunders they are so funny & sometimes the only smile or laugh I have had in an age!
It also shows how difficult it actually is to create a video.
I loved the nosy around your shop/warehouse.
So glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Chandi. Such a fun video. Thank you for the tour! Love the tops! Beautiful! Have a great weekend!💞
Thank you! You too!
Thanks.😊
Well that is exciting! I'm getting ready to order some yarn and it's good to know I won't have to wait long as I am in Charlotte too! Yay!
Wonderful! Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing... so glad you followed your heart 💖
You are so welcome!
Excellent choices for the matérial and colours
Thanks 😊
Your pride in the shop is so evident in you grin. I love the Expression Fiber Bleu and how excited you get over having a loading dock. Thank you for showing us around and I am so glad it's not open to the public.😂 I'd want to be in there petting all the beautiful yarn and oohing and ahhhhing the gorgeous colours. I wish you and all of yours well. XOXO 😘❤❤❤
Thank you!
I feel like a kid in a candy store watching this! Amazing to see!
Thanks a bunch!
Congratulations on all your success! Thank you for sari. Love your beautiful patterns and yarns!
I love your story. I’ve followed you since before you moved to NC. Thank you for the tour!
You're welcome, and thank you for your support through the years!
Enjoyed the tour. Thanks Chandi. 🧶
Thanks for watching!
So cool. Thank you for showing us!
You're very welcome!
It’s a paradise and I love it so much
Love your little ankle boots! How cute are they ??? Super happy for you! Will be looking for your yarns to help support your fabulous business!
Thank you so much!
Just loved the tour, it must be like a kid going to a candy shop everyday when you go to work. Thank you for the tour and the free pattern.🥰
You are so welcome!
Thank you for sharing. Very exciting.
Thanks for watching!
Great warehouse all the best and success❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💃👌🏾
Thank you so much!
Chandi you are beautiful inside and out! Love your energy! I'm so happy to see the your amazing shop! A dream come true. Good for you and us! I too would be a dye color-aholic! You amd your team create the most beautiful colors I've seen! Tim does a fantastic job photographing you and the yarns! I'm new to your site and have just been following you about a month. And I just love your patterns and yarns. I am trying to decide what to purchase first. I have never purchased or worked with such high quality yarn and am so excited. I love to crochet 1st and foremost, but after many years of lessons from my Nana who sadly passed away 25 years ago, finally was able to pull off a few basic knit and purl items, a blanket and a wrap. So I would say still a beginner. My Nana was an expert knitter and would love you and your shop. Places like this and colors like this dif not exist while she was alive. She purchased through Mary Maxim primarily. She could knit anything and every stitch, her cables and color work were amazing! Without her here to teach me, I've been watching you wonderful instructional videos. Thank you! You have inspired me.
What a lovely story. Thank you so much for sharing it with me.
Wow! Such a wonderful place! Bless you for sharing 🙏 ❤
Thank you!
Wow, thanks so much for sharing your back story with some personal info and your career. So happy to hear you're doing what you love. I wish I could use the thinner yarns but my hands don't let me now a days. The 2 versions of the blouse are gorgeous! I really wish I could make it. Is there also a crochet version as well? Thanks again for sharing a bit of your world with us. Very interesting and fascinating!
You're welcome and thank you! We don't currently have a crochet version of this top.
Omg. I just luv that you accomplished your dream. I envy YOU! 💕🥰💕 Most of all I love all of your yarn! Best yarn out there. Awesome & beautiful colors & paterns.
Thank you so much!
I'm so happy for you
Thank you so much! That's sweet of you to say.
Such a fun place to work! ❤️ I think it’s so cool that you provide jobs for people to work from home! For fun I checked my EFA account, and I’ve been buying yarn from you since 2016! I won a giveaway of yours, and I’ve been addicted ever since! It’s been so much to watch your journey ❤️💫
So glad you enjoyed watching, and thanks for all of your support!
What a great video ♥️ Thank you for showing us your dream 💕 All the hard work you put in paid off and it beautiful 😍
Thank you so much!!
Chandi, you are just so adorable. I can see that is one of your happy places. It would be mine too .. I'd never leave. 🤗 #yarnheaven
♥️♥️♥️
Omg this was FABULOUS!!! SO cool to watch behind the scenes of your AWESOME EFA biz!! ❤️🧶👍🏼
Thanks so much!!
I do believe I’ve been around for a little while. Lol. I just want to stand and stare at all the beautiful yarn both the ones dyed and undyed. That sweater is gorgeous!
Thanks! So happy you love it!
You did it girl.....so wonderful ❤
Thank you so much!!
What a lovely work place you have. I keep hoping that 1day I will get some of your beautiful yarn but at the moment I have a very low budget for yarn so I opt to go for more affordable yarns for now. But I do love all your yarns and so many beautiful colours , sometimes I feel like I'm drooling while going through your web site looking at all those goodies. Xx
Thank you! We appreciate that you're a part of our community, whether you purchase our yarn or not.
This is awesome…. Thanks for sharing your wonderful dream that turned into reality! Great Job!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! What a wonderful space!
I'm in the UK and if I ever get over to the States(my brother/sister in law live in Boiling Springs, South Carolina) I will definitely be paying a visit to buy a ton of yarn. 😁
Thanks! I'm very happy you enjoyed it. However, we don't actually have a physical shop open to the public and only sell online at www.expressionfiberarts.com/
Well now I just want to move to NC and work with you! ❤️ thanks for sharing with us!
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks amazing, well done to you and Tim 👍🏻❤️hard work pays out in the end 👏👏👏

Seeing those shelves all stacked up made me think of those old "shopping sprees", where you ran around the store & what you grabbed in the time limit you kept!!

Outtakes are STILL my favorite!!
Love that!
Love the bloopers at the end. Lol
So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the tour, the shop looks fantastic!
Thanks for watching!
I wanna just come over there and touch the yarn. Nothing more. Beautiful entrepreneurship, kudos to you! I look forward to the time I get a job and I can afford your beautiful yarn (hoping you ship to Italy too)
Thank you so much! And yes, we do ship to Italy! :)
