Ok, this was fantastic! I am a product of Mr. Roger’s, and my favorite parts were when he would visit the community and we would learn how things were made. This episode was just like that!❤ Thank you for sharing your adventures! 😊
I loved those parts too!
Fantastic video! Makes me appreciate the costs involved with yarn from natural fibers!!!
Hats off to you and Kent for a great video. It really shows why yarn is so expensive. Your documentary-making skills are growing every month that you are on the road!
This has given me so much more appreciation for the craft and expertise involved in creating fiber. Worth every single penny! When I purchase yarn, I will never again question the price. Thank you so so much for sharing this!
I totally agree!
Agree, much appreciation for how my yarn became yarn.
Two roots alpacas mill is incredible! Ruth Anne is so sweet.
So sweet!
Wow! Fabulous explanations of all the mill workings without losing us in the technical. I could really visualize the fiber turning into yarn. Thanks!
Thanks for taking us along. So amazing 🧶
This was absolutely phenomenal!!!!! I'm 50 years old and was raised on Mister Rogers. I mean this in the most complimentary way: this video made me nostalgic! You really took us right there with you. Thank you Natalie and Kent!!!
This brings back so many memories: some great friends of mine had an Alpaca farm and I was able to visit their farm even with my children & grandchildren. I learned a great deal about Alpacas and their fleece and yarn fibers. I was also able to help when they had their Alpacas sheared. It was a great experience 🧶
Knitty Natty I am really enjoying all of the background that you’re bringing to us! It really makes you appreciate the material ❤
Thank you so much!
Didn't know you were in our area! Ruth Ann and Brad must have enjoyed your visit. Will you also be going to Stewart Heritage Farms in New Market? Also Alpaca Ranch and great friend!
This alpaca farm is run by such a patient and wonderful couple who obviously love their animals❣️The education they provided is awesome; and you’ve done a great job in putting it all together-thank you so much, I loved every minute of it. I am a crocheter who is still too new to the craft to delve into these beautiful skeins-my goal is to make shawls with alpaca by next Fall to sell locally using fiber from our local alpaca farms here in Central Oregon. Your video has further inspired me! Thank you❤
This was really well done! Both fun and informative. It is such a treat to see folks who are working to preserve fiber crafts and uplift their communities of both artists and farmers.
Truly incredible! Such an amazing process to provide us with beautiful fiber and yarn! Thank you for sharing.
😂wow! This is so awesome. I am moving to Mosheim to be with my son & family. I am a spinner, knitter & weaver & so excited to see this nearby😁
This is facinating as I have never seen a big operation like this.
So glad I found this video! LOVED 🥰 seeing the alpaca and learning the yarn process. ❤❤❤ Thank you!!!
I was absolutely enthralled watching this video. Love the "extras" Kent. I usually knit while I watch (who doesn't!) but I kept finding myself just watching. Thank you so much.
Alpacas are such wonderful animals🧶
Oh I would love to have an alpaca farm. What a fascinating lesson. Thank you!
Loved this episode!! Great job!! The alpacas are so cute and seem very sweet! Thanks for the educational video!!
This was incredible! I so loved it! Thank you!!!
That was so much fun to watch, Natalie. Thankyou
Such an interesting, informative and emotional video for me, as my grandparents used to have a sheep farm, from which they had to give up when urbanisation swallowed our area. I love to see and learn more about people who are still able to keep yarn processing as a family activity in small and local businesses. During my Animal care internship I had the chance to visit big yarn manufacturer company it was fascinating, kinda similar (as it's the same process of course), but it was feeling as a job for which these people are paid to do daily, not necessarily as they have passion or interest at from where that yarn came and where will go after their working day end. The vibe at this video is in the opposite direction! Such a pleasure to watch it!
Also I saw a few other people commenting that and I so agree with their opinion that this is an excellent made episode, that can be produced for Discovery Channel's "How It's Made".
Wonderful video. My parents live near Greenville and I will have to schedule a tour. Thanks for showing us the process all the way through.
I was mesmerized watching this process. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Great Episode! Sure worth the price for all this effort. Thank you.
Great episode. I will never complain about the cost of yarn again.
This was a wonderful video! I've always wondered how yarn went from animal to skein. So interesting and informative!
So interesting.. and so many steps to get 1 skein. Totally appreciate paying the price, thanks for the adventure and tour !
This was fantastic!! Thank you for another wonderful video!
That was so fun to watch. Thank you!
I lived in Weaverville for 4 years, I miss it so much
Favorite video on this topic ever. What a great crew at that establishment.
Ruth Anne and Brad were the best!
That was awesome! Thank you! 🥰
Good job guys! This was super entertaining to watch.
I LOVE how it's made videos. Who knew it took that many machines for fiber to go from farm to needles? Thank you for sharing in your yarney adventures.
Looks like you had a blast, thanks for sharing, I love Mill Tours
Absolutely outstanding 🎉
Wow! What a treat. It's amazing to see the entire process. Thanks!
Loved watching this video!! So informative.
Such an interesting and informative interview! Thank you!!
J'ai adoré!!!!! Merci pour ce merveilleux reportage. Bisous de France
This was most interesting. Thanks for the tour!!
What a great video and sweet couple of Alpaca Farmers! Two Roots Alpaca Farm is also a Harvest Host for RVers, I believe. They are not too far from my home in Black Mountain, and it was a thrill to have met him at the Southeast Fiber Fest! Thanks so much for filming this process.❤
This was extremely interesting. I loved it and the gentleman explained so well.
I’m so glad you loved it! They spent so much time with us. It was awesome ☺️
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing! 🧑🏻🦰🇨🇦
This was so interesting! Thanks for doing this. It helps me appreciate all that goes into producing small batch fiber!
This video was so incredible! I think it gives all of us more appreciation for the finished product we get to use.
I loved this episode. So many steps to make a hank. Now I can understand the price if quality yarn.
What a great video! I am definitely going to go back and watch this one again.
❤❤❤ Alpacas I would love to have them all 😊😍
I know! They're so sweet!
I absolutely love this, it was really interesting. Thankyou
The first Alpaca was so camera shy. Looked so cute
Such an interesting video! Thanks Natalie for taking us along 🦙 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
I worked in a textile factory making wool for 15 years. I done a one year course at Belfast college of technology in Northern Ireland and it was so interesting. They had a massive carding machine. It was so big that the room it was in had to be built around it.
How fun to see all the steps. A whole new perspective and easier to see where the costs come from.
wonderful segment
This was great. We live only 30 to 40 minutes from there and when my son saw this he wants to do a field trip Friday (home schooled)
This was a fun watch!
very professional. Natalie did a good job with questions. The owners were so knowledgeable and patient. Super editing skills. Fantastic, I learned so much. Great appreciation for where my yarn comes from ❤
Wonderful video ❤ thank you so much!
I loved this video ❤ so interesting to see the whole process. I learned a lot. Thank you Natalie
The helpful llama cartoon. I just can’t! 💖💖💖💖😂 I’m back in grammar school watching a film strip about life on a working farm and having just as much good fun! So corny and so perfect. You guys rock!
Hehe thank you!
This was so cool to see!!
This was so cool to watch! Now I want to work at a mill😂 maybe after I convince the hubs to get sheep he'll let me add a mill to our property!
This was so cool to see!
Wonderful video and project.
It’s the first time I’ve watched this process from start to finish. I have new respect for artisan yarn and crafts in general. Great informational video.
This was great, thank you Natalie, Kent, Brad and Ruth Anne!!
Very fun to see
Very well done. This was so interesting!
They are so beautiful. What a wonderful video😊
Thank you so much!
So cool! Thanks for sharing this!
This was very interesting! Thanks for sharing.
I loved this video!! So interesting!! Thank you for all y’all s hard work
I loved this! So interesting and fun!❤
Fascinating❤
Gold stars to you Natalie,! Loved the alpaca farm. We used to help with shearing at a alpaca farm yearly. Thanks so much for all the information. 19:59
That is super cool! Thanks! I’m so happy you enjoyed it ☺️
This is where I live, how have I not heard of them!?!
So interesting!! ❤🎉🧶👍
Great tour! I really enjoyed learning.
So good! Thank you
Fascinating! Thank you for taking us on this wonderful ride with you and Kent and Toaster!
I love knitting with alpaca, so it was fascinating to see its journey from field to skein. Love videos like this where I can learn about my hobby on a deeper level..
This was so cool!
Very interesting process !
I was sitting on this one planning to watch after I got back from vacation…a vacation where I was less than an hour from Asheville and local cloth 😢 I wish now I had watched so I could have gone in to support! I’m there several times a year usually so I’ll have to go back soon. In my area we only have one lys within an hour so knowing how many shops are in the nc mountains and that local cloth is one, I definitely have a day planned for my next venture!
This video was awesome, and if you make it to Massachusetts there is the best yarn store called Boston Fiber Company, it is a lovely store in the most beautiful area it is a must to visit it if you are in the area. ❤
Such an awesome video thank you
I loved this video! Thank you Natalie, Kent and Two Roots Alpacas!! ❤🧶
I love the journey of seeing how it is done. I have been surprised by how much TN has to offer in fiber arts. I wish we had a good option for a yarn store in the Memphis area.
Oh, what a video! I’ve had some printing/binding training experience and their are some similarity to it. Fascinating!
This was so interesting.. I loved it. Thank you to Fiber Mill for this yarn process tour. I really, really enjoyed it. And now, I understand better why the prices of yarn are what they are.
This was brilliant! I love knitting with alpaca yarn and seeing this process was a real eye opener! Great video thank you Natalie and Kent x
This is so cool. I live in NC and have visited Asheville a few time. Next time I go there, I hope to visit. What a learning experience for you. Thanks for sharing and making this known.
Ooh yes! It’s so enjoyable!
So interesting!
So happy you are so close to home and visiting our local stars!!! Will you also visit Stewart
Heritage Farm in New Market?
Thankyou Natalie for showing the process of the alpaca yarn! Soo interesting Kaye x
Awesome
This was so cool to watch! Thank you for giving us an inside peek into how a skein of yarn is made!
Hi Natalie and Kent. That video was amazing. Alot of work goes into making a skein of beautiful Alpaca yarn. Those machines are amazing. You did a great job learning all about it Natalie. Kent, I liked the Alpaca illustrations you put in the corners on the video with small comments. Great job. It was entertaining. Thank you for sharing .
