Rhinebeck / NY Sheep and Wool 2023 Recap - Part 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 ต.ค. 2024
- Hang out with my friend Erica and I as we go through our Rhinebeck 2023 sweaters, knitting projects ... plus our experiences, stories and purchases from the Rhinebeck / NY Sheep and Wool (and Cakepalooza and Wool & Folk. Yes, we'll talk about it.)
*Note - we filmed this segment before we had heard the stories from vendors and attendees about the lack of accessibility and safety issues. We experienced several issues that have previously stated by others.
My heart goes out to the many Wool & Folk vendors, small businesses and attendees who were at the event and did not have a good experience. As I've listened to everyone's stories, I'm seeing it's so much worse than many of us attendees realized and that you may have been smiling through your tears. I'm so sorry things went down the way they did.
Please support these Wool & Folk Vendors - follow them on Instagram, check out their shops. (Many of them are having post-Wool & Folk shop updates this weekend.)

I was beside myself yesterday when I went thrifting. $35 got me 13 bags of new luxury yarns including woolfolk tage, birdie fingering, sandnes garn kos and silk mohair, Rowan classic just to name a few standouts. I have sorted everything so I am now looking for knit inspiration - I have sweater quantities of a few of the yarns. Loved this podcast!
oh wow - you found some real treasures! sounds like you have some fun pattern decisions to make. happy knitting!
I can make any inanimate object sentimental - love this 😂😅
she’s the best! 😂
What a fun recap! Loved seeing your purchases and hearing about your in-the-moment inspirations. Extra fun to have your knitting buddy with you, with such a great assortment of sweaters! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much for watching - we had a blast!
Both of your sweaters are gorgeous.
I’m the one who told Erica about how Mary Maxim is in Michigan now. Still cannot get over her buffalo cardigan and I’m glad you did that portion of your video because I had made a mental note at W&F to look up their patterns later and forgot…till now! Always love watching your videos Jen! 🎉
YES - it was you! thanks for the info .. we love learning more about that stuff!
Yes - thank you! I need to do a deep dive and learn more Mary Maxim history!
@@goldmeh- I just posted a comment. I've got a ton of old books with Mary Maxim adverts from the 60s that have full page ads with these kinds of cardigans! I'm going to find one that catches my eye to try to recreate/chart and knit. Plus, I'm in Michigan!
Just found an advert in a 1965-66 mag from Knit-O-Graf with similar motif patterns, so check them out if you're into that!
Love the added panel top to bottom Buffalo sweater. Smart. Wow.
totally agree!
The headband was Calorimetry from Knitty Magazine! What a moment in time that was; I bet 77% of knitters presently aged 40-50 went on a kick with that pattern!
it sure was!!!! we all had one - thanks for remembering the pattern name. (it’s definitely back in my ravelry somewhere.)
I'm cracking up as you talk about your 70s era Mary Maxim buffalo sweater as I'm literally looking through a few of my mom's 70s knitting books for inspo as I watch.
I have about 3 boxes of knitting books from the 1950s-1980s. Vogue, Women's Day, Better Homes and Gardens, etc.
I have to say, though, that I remember most of those motif sweaters being advertised in the 60s books. Of the four books from 70-74 in front of me, only 2 have Mary Maxim adverts and one is a quarter page for rug kits. The other is a full page with 2bsmall photos of men wearing a deer and horse sweater.
But you've inspired me! I'm going to dig into the boxes, find some of the old full-page adverts and try to recreate the charts for a sweater that catches my eye! (Some of the old adverts had 20-30 different cardigans!).
HA - we went back down the Mary Maxim rabbit hole after we got home from Rhinebeck. So many treasures.
This was really fun to watch, thank you for sharing. I was at Rhinebeck for the first time ever this year! I just moved to Red Hook, so it was super exciting for me to see all of the knitters descending on the Hudson Valley. Can’t wait for next year!
How fun - I bet it's so nice to live right there! Such a beautiful area; we loved staying there. I'm already excited for next year too!
Thanks for sharing! The Buffalo Sweater - really - no words!
it’s such a good one!! can’t beat the vintage patterns.
The blacktea from tuft is the best one lol ❤
noted!!
OMG that Buffalo cardigan is AMAZING ♡♡
it’s incredible!!
Native Iowa girl here! Thank you so much for sharing! It's wonderful and inspiring seeing all the things you are knitting and aspire to knit, yarn acquisitions and future knits! You and Erica are super awesome!
Thanks so much for watching - YAY Iowa!
TU heading over to part 2❤❤❤
thanks so much for watching!
Loved this video and many thanks. Your knits are beautiful and loved your yarn haul. Best laughs. 👏🙏🏼💕🇨🇦
Thank you so much!
I knit my Felix cardigan in Noro Kureyon. Purchased years ago from the now defunct Stitches Midwest.
The Felix pattern is so good (and so versatile!) I'd love to make one in Noro!
I love this! Best Rhinebeck recap video from our Dsm ⭐️s! I especially enjoyed seeing some of the non-yarn goodies you found!
thanks so much! it was a pretty great weekend.
Thanks so much for explaining this year. It was a fun Rhinebeck adjacent adventure with you, Jen and Erica! Thanks for the Mary Maxim memory too!
Thanks so much for following along - overall, we had a great weekend. (And I've fully gone down the Mary Maxim rabbit hole, thanks to Erica!)
What a treat to see a long podcast from you!! Thank you for sharing all. I am looking forward to VKL NYC in January ❤️🧶
Thanks so much! It’s a lot easier to make a long one if you have someone to talk with! 😅 Definitely hoping to go to VKL again.
I really enjoyed your video and recap of the events! You and Erica showed a beautiful sweater while y’all were in the Yarnbyrds truck. It looked very intriguing! Would you know the name of it? It was brown with short jagged diagonal colorwork maybe done in spincycle.
Hi - so sorry, I don't remember the name of that one! (Thanks for watching though!)
Hi Jan for this video!!
I'm so sorry too for vendors and other people who work so hard to prepare this event and thank you to talk about this.
I know how they feel, I had same experiences and they broken😔
By the way, thanks again. It was relaxed listen you two😊
See you soon on tube😉
Bye from Italy❤
thanks for watching - vending is so hard, and extra tough for so many of our vendor friends this time.
This was so much fun to watch, thank you! (Some day I'll get to go to Rhinebeck myself, until then I live vicariously through TH-cam recaps, lol. 😂)
thanks for watching - and yes, Rhinebeck someday!
Those jumpers!
thanks! they were fun to knit!
Enjoyed your RB recap and sweaters! What is your Noro skein and the colorway name or number? ❤
I think it's #188 / Purple Velvet!
Great podcast....love your sweaters - that Buffalo sweater is awesome!!!! What is the name of the designer....how do we find it online.
Thanks so much for watching! The buffalo sweater is a vintage Mary Maxim pattern that you may still be able to find online.
Great video, thanks for sharing! What is the design for the sweaters that you're wearing here?
the yellow and purple ones are the Kordy sweaters! www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/kordy
Mary maximum has an anniversary this year. They have a place in Paris, Ontario Canada. You can possible get those patterns
that is awesome - I’ll have to look!
Charlie wrote, “Not Penny’s boat.” 🥺😭
YES - ugh, such a heartbreaking episode.
what is Erica's ravelry handle? Her work is stunning
Her Ravelry is www.ravelry.com/people/elcarnes and she's @goldmeh on instagram. 🙂 (Her Ravelry is totally worth a deep dive!)
Noro was the luxury yarn years ago....
it really was (and still might be!)
Mary maxim is nice.
yes it is!!
Fiber fest have turned into nothing but money grabs. What used to be mellow fun days - rain or shine, have turned into frantic frenzies. Deom Rhinebeck sweaters to podcaster meetups. It is all based on selling as much stuff as possible and meetups are only for ensuring that your podcasts are monetized. My last festivsl year was 2019 and i am now grateful for the lockdown break. People are stressed out and desperate. Not to mention that it is nearly impossible to get through them without being around hordes of people coughing and sneezing in your face. Pass.
I understand this side of things too - it’s a lot … it can really be so much fun. But it’s not for everyone, and that’s okay. I don’t think it’s really a money grab .. there are so many vendors to choose from that I think our money gets spread out. Everyone we visited were local farms and small (sometimes one person) businesses. The only meetups I did were to hand out stitch markers with MadTosh (who I do graphic design and pattern design for) and Modern Daily Knitting where I did a field guide meet and greet. I’m sure there’s a podcast meetup but I totally missed that. The sneezing and coughing is always a thing, but staying outside makes it less germy, I think. But each to their own - I respect your opinion!
