This fair is absolutely dreamy to watch, I would lose myself and spend a fortune on all of these beautiful artisan wools and yarns and not to mention all the gorgeous tools and finished goods, and the adorable sheep 🐑 it's one of my biggest dreams to have land and a flock of my own sheep, goats, and alpacas and spin up, and dye my own yarns to knit and crochet with. Fiber nerd heaven.
Please take us along with you when you do the felting kit and the fleece-to-whatever journey! Gosh, *five* pounds - I have a friend who had a whole fleece and - that’s a *lot* to take on!
JillianEve has great spinning/history tutorials on TH-cam. She and Fiber spider both have great beginner videos. They taught me how to spin and now I'm soo addicted! Lol
WOW!!!! What a trip you guys had.....Looks like so much fun. I can't wait to see your mom's sweater she will make and of course all your new adventures you have in store for us...
Oh! I was just an hour and a half away visiting family in the Catskills. So sad to have missed this festival, will be putting it in the calendar for next year. Glad you had fun!
Happy birthday to your mom! I've never been to Rhinebeck so I really enjoyed seeing your first experience there! Can't wait to see what comes next on your fiber journey!
This looked like a great festival. Thanks for sharing what you saw and purchased. It will be very interesting to see the items you make from the beautiful yarn you purchased as well as watching you spin and weave the wool you bought. Would very much like to join in your learning experience of felting. Happy Birthday to your Mom, and did you say it was also your b-day? If so, Happy birthday to you as well!
Happy birthday to your mom! I've only been to Rhinebeck once (which is bordering on shameful, as I live WAY closer than you,) but I had an amazing time! I bought many things. ...I don't think I've used any of them, yet. I'd love to see all the fiber adventures you care to share with us!
Oh, now I want an Apple cider donut sooo badly!😄 Thanks for taking us along on your trip, I really enjoyed it!💖 Alllll the yarn...❤❤❤ and I was psyched to see that Jennifer Steingass sweater in the beginning! I love her designs.
i have a cardigan that was the first thing my friend Pat mad from the yarn she spun from her own sheep. She came to the UK to visit family and brought the project with her but didnt have room to take it back as she had so many family keepsakes from her mom. Its too small now but Ill never part with it.. Cant wait to see your projects take shape,
There are tons of spinning videos out there to get started spinning. That’s how I first learned. Thanks for taking us along to Rhinebeck. I’ve wanted to go for YEARS!
Several of these vendors were at SAFF this past weekend! I saw Miss Babs and White Birch, although I didn't buy anything from them this year - I still have a gradient cake of my own of the baby camel and silk blend from White Birch to knit up from 2019!
You may already follow them, but if you don't, I'd like to suggest for your fleece to sweater journey to check out Trish from Fiber Love Diary and Jillian from JillianEve. They both have some great videos on cleaning fleeces and spinning. Super knowledgeable and very fun to watch!
Happy belated birthday to Engineering Mom! You’re speaking to my heart through this whole episode, particularly with the “sheep to sweater” at the end. The desire to learn to spin is growing every day… I’ve been shopping spindles and treadle machines for months. I would LOVE to see your process in spinning and weaving your beautiful fleece. Thank you for sharing your trip to Rhinebeck. I want to go someday!!
I haven't been to Rhinebeck in about 15 years. It just became too crowded and crazy. You are brave getting an unwashed fleece. You might want to wear rubber gloves when you wash it. I've washed some in the past an got a rash on my hands. Sheep are pasture animals. Just imagine what weeds and thorny bits they can get into while in the pasture. I used to buy unwashed fleeces but I'm at the point where I would rather pay a bit extra and get one that's washed. It sounds like you had a wonderful time.
Hi,please wish your mum happy birthday, looks like you had a great time, personally I could not touch the wool, I'm allergic to lanolin, I would love to see you trying the needle felting, 💖
its strange how some things just feel and look right to one,,, when you showed the Gotland sheep (lamb here) fleece i just went "yup, thats right, thats it". i guess it makes sense since im from gotland and theres sheep skins in every home: couch, bed and floor haha. theyre so cozy^^ much love from Gotland^^
Thank you for bringing us along with you to Rhinebeck! I've wanted to go for many years, but couldn't afford the travel. This was almost as good as being there (probably better for the budget too, as I enjoyed the vicarious thrill of seeing your purchases) 😄
Oh my god, Mending Life!!!! I have this book, and it is both a lovely instructional mending book as well as a collection of heartwarming stories and grants a poetic perspective to the art and act of mending! I found the illustrations very helpful, since I'm more a visual learner. :D
Happy Belated Birthday to your mom! This looked so fun. Rhinebeck was something I should have visited while I lived closer but I think now I would appreciate it more as I'm into more fiber arts... I think I'll eventually get there but thank you for sharing your experience (and your haul)!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you got to enjoy it and I can definitely recommend going, if you get the chance. I am glad I was able to share some of the magic of the weekend with you this way!
Oooh! Those fleeces are stunning! I got my first fleeces a few weeks ago at the Taos wool festival (2 gotland teeswater, and a navajo churro) and I have similar plans to go from sheep to sweater. It's a lot of work - I've washed mine and have been combing/carding a little here and there. It's definitely going to keep me busy for a while! I'd love to follow your adventures with your fleece as well!
I would love to see you do the needle felting kit! I've been curious about those kits. Also if you do darning/mending, I'd love to see that too! Just seems like you have so many cool video ideas just from this haul!
Way to go! Looking forward to seeing whatever you decide to do with your wool. Thank you for sharing. I always look forward to your videos. Take care. Stephanie
Belated happy birthday to “Mom”🥳 good luck with your spinning endeavours! I have the same goal of going from sheep to garment but have had to put the project on hold while my arms heal. Will you use a wheel to spin or start with a spindle?😊
I hope your arms heal quickly! I think I'm going to try my hand at using a spinning wheel! I've tried using a drop spindle before and found the coordination much more difficult than using the spinning wheel I was allowed to try once!
@@EngineeringKnits I'd suggest trying a supported spindle if you're interested in spindles at all (obviously feel free to go straight to a wheel if you want). I find supported spindles make more sense for me because I can curl up on the couch and finagle with the wool without worrying that the weight of the spindle is going to pull it apart.
I second trying supported spindles - I always drop my drop spindles and found them frustrating. I jumped straight in to spinning wheels though, and now have an addiction to antique spinning wheels…
Happy Birthday Mom! First I want to say how incredibly lucky you are that you and your mom enjoy the same things my mother and I were total opposites she was a cleaner but not a crafter and I hate cleaning and I just love every form of crafting there is and I pretty much tried it all I would have given anything to be able to enjoy Rhinebeck with my mother and just the purchase of all that fun stuff. I enjoyed watching this so so much, it is wonderful to have a partner in crime so to speak!
Can't wait to see what you create with all of this! Going from sheep to sweater seems like such a cool concept, so I'm pretty excited to follow along with you :D
The great lakes fiber show is held in my hometown of Wooster, OH and I'm so excited to attend next year! Just getting into knitting and can't wait to attend a festival like the one you attended. I have family in upstate New York, might have to schedule a visit for this time next year, see the fam and get in a little yarn on the side!
Thank you so much for this video and all of your content, it brightens my week when I see a new one! I would love to watch a whole series from sheep to sweater or fabric, I hope you find the time to do it!
Would love to see the sheep too sweater journey! I found an unopened vintage spinning wheel on Facebook marketplace that I'm ashamed to say is still in the box 2 years later. Just don't know where to start and I'm always in the middle of other projects, lol.
I’ve been wanting to spin my own yarn for awhile now too I just need to get a few more items before I start. I’ve been watching Jillianeve on TH-cam and she teaches how to spin on spindles and spinning wheels she does other things too like weaving and knitting.
Everything looks so lovely. Yarn and craft fairs are also so much fun!! I miss them. I’m sure that you will have no problem doing the needle felting. I have a friend who has a sheep farm and does felting. Years ago I needle felted a small landscape with sheep on the bottom of my jeans while visiting. The jeans are rags now but I cut off my decorations!! Anyway I would love to see your needle felting project and anything else you want to show us!!! Also tell your mom happy birthday!!! Looks like you two had a wonderful time!
I am in the middle of my own brown sheep sweater, a basic plain raglan by percentages. Mine is currently about 2" below the arm holes and heading onward. I'm doing it in a 3 ply yarn, spun in the grease (on a wheel) from flick-carded locks and plied up before being washed, thwacked, and hung to dry. This is my first ever sweater, but I'm sure it will be fine. :) It fits so far, anyway, and I don't think it'll go far wrong from here on out. Best of luck on your journey, and I hope you have as much fun with your sheep-to-whatever project as I am having with mine!
ohhhhh Im so jealous! I almost went but decided it might be too much effort for not enough reward but it looks SO fun, I definitely have to go next year! Definitely interested in seeing the needle felting and fleece adventures!
I am a first time viewer and thoroughly enjoyed your podcast. So hungry for everything Rhinebeck! Question: what is the name of the pattern for the cardigan mom wants to knit with the Soft Studio Donegal yarn? I am in love 🥰 and also want to knit it
Happy Birthday to Mom. It looks like you both had lots of fun. I've wanted to attend Rheinbeck for years and have never had the chance. Thank you for taking us along with you. I really enjoyed it. Just wish I could have been there too. Would love to watch you needle felt. Would it be possible to get the source information on your purchases? I'd love to contact and buy from some of the vendors you visited. Thank you.
Happy Birthday to your mother 🎂 What an interesting trip. I would love to see you do needle felting, I bought a kit this summer and plan to teach myself how to use it. I make Amigurumi and I would like to needle felt the details. Weaving sounds interesting too, I have pinned several types of looms on Pinterest.
I lived near Rhinebeck (the city, which is where the Sheep and Wool festival happens) when I was a teen. I wasn't yet a yarny (though my best friend was) and I had no idea this festival existed back then. /Sigh. Oh well, maybe someday I'll make it up there for the festival (I live in FL, now).
Another belated happy birthday from me to your mom. Also, I am interested in watching you (or, another soft spoken TH-camr you prefer to recommend) processing the wool, especially washing & drying it. I know how to card, spin &weave, at a basic level. I would be interested in the whole process, but, most curious about the tricks of safely washing it. Congratulations on your new loom. My preference, should you want to know, is in watching fiber arts, of one sort or another, so, yes, interested in watching a felting video.
what kind of upstate New Yorker am I that I haven't been to Rhinebeck?! watching this, I'm definitely going next year! looks awesome! good luck learning to process wool- I've heard this described as the fiber artist -> sheep farmer pipeline lol! XD
Ooo! Had I known I would have invited you to my house and guild. I live near Rhinebeck and am an avid spinner/knitter/Horned Dorset farmer. I also wrote an article for PLY Magazine in their Basics issue about spinning on antique spinning wheels as a beginner. Good Luck in your spinning journey! Reach out if you need anything! -Danielle B.
Wow! Thank you for sharing Rhinebeck! Amazing! I love the cardigan pattern your Mom bought a kit of donagul for! Happy Birthday to your Mom! Can you please share the name of her cardigan pattern? Thank you!
Welcome to the fiber world! I met so many incredible people while on my fleece journey. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I actually made a shawl out of fiber I washed, spun and knitted. It's my pride and joy! Here are three TH-cam channels that continue to inspire me fiber art wise: - Jillian Eve - Hey Brownberry - Fiber Love Diaries

WOW!!!! What a trip you guys had.....Looks like so much fun. I can't wait to see your mom's sweater she will make and of course all your new adventures you have in store for us...
I had no idea you could even BUY a fleece, much less how to proces it. I"m looking foward to this series.
I know this is late but Happy birthday to your Mom! I like her wool colour choices 😍.
Oh that looks so much fun
Welcome to spinning!
Oh! I was just an hour and a half away visiting family in the Catskills. So sad to have missed this festival, will be putting it in the calendar for next year.
Glad you had fun!
I can’t believe I didn’t see you there! I’m so sad! It was such a fun time.
Wow, a whole fleece - you are brave!

I miss Rhinebeck. I used to live just down the road from there on Poughkeepsie.
Happy birthday Mama Knits!
I would not have thought camels had long or soft enough hair to make wool!
Oh, now I want an Apple cider donut sooo badly!😄 Thanks for taking us along on your trip, I really enjoyed it!💖 Alllll the yarn...❤❤❤ and I was psyched to see that Jennifer Steingass sweater in the beginning! I love her designs.
Pardon me while I clean up my drool. That wool is soooo beautiful! What a lovely weekend for you and your mom. I am only a little jealous....really.

Welcome to the rabbit hole of spinning your yarn! 🐰🕳️
Ahh Rhinebeck! One day I will go but I'm in Montréal so kind of far but it look amazing!
I am so incredibly jealous lol. I would love to go to a festival like that

It's so nice that you and your mom could go together and I loved seeing knitting content!
I see I missed alot ! That shawl is the one for me! wish I had seen that! Went in a group this time so my attention span was quite limited it seems...

New sub! What knits did you wear to Rhinebeck? They were very pretty. So nice that you share this experience with your Mom ❤️.
I’ve almost bought that book on mending a couple times but keep putting it back. Please let me know your thoughts!!
that spinning machine at 2:18 looks so handy and small, does anyone know what those are called?
I'm so jealous of the people who went to Rhinebeck! I've always wanted to go and just never have the time or money for the travel
loved your video. Can you tell me what sweater pattern you are wearing in your recap of purchases?
What is the sweater pattern that you are wearing at the beginning of the video? It so beautiful 😍
If you made your white and blue cardigan would you please share the pattern you used?!😍
Thank you for the tour of Rhinebeck 2021. I saving for 2022. What was the cardigan pattern and yarn that your mom brought? THank you
I think it would be dangerous for my wallet if I went to a festival like that. So much pretty wool.
👌👌👌👌👌👀
It would not be a question of spending money or no.. it would be the question how much money I could allow myself to spend.
Who is we that u always say?
