Thank you so much for watching this video and supporting my channel - it truly means the world to me 💕
I'm so glad you got a little break from the hustle and bustle. Of all the animals, those yaks stole my heart.
Aren't those just the cutest?? I literally gasped when I saw them!
Thank you for sharing your day with us. That’s a great way to renew yourself. I love your color choices!!
Thank you so much!! 🥰🥰🥰
You are radiant in this. You must be very happy at the moment.
You are so kind, thank you 🥹💕 This was a break from school/the city that I so desperately needed!
What! A Barn Crawl! That’s amazing. , a flea market and a hotdog stand. I am loving this whole trip. Great finds too. Thanks for sharing Cannot wait to see what your treasures become
Thank you SO much
So much fun to go on the Barn Tour with you.
Thank you for joining me! 🥰🥰🥰
Oh Andrea, what fun! I spent the weekend volunteering at a fiber festival--your video had so much of the feel that that had, but with your lovely characteristic exuberance. I'm so glad you had the opportunity to relax a bit and have some fun. Have the best time playing with your new fibers! (Also, those Babydolls looked just like Muppets.)
Thank you SO much for your kindness! Volunteering at a festival sounds like it would be a blast. I definitely have a weakness for things that look muppet-ey 😂❤
looking forward to seeing what you make with these lovely goodies!
🥰🥰🥰
So happy to see you back!
Your videos are legit my fav on youtube!
Ahhh that means so much to me, thank you!!
I absolute love going on your adventures!
Ok…. I see you gravitated towards the chartreuse and fuscias! We grok.
What a great day for you! ❤
It was a blast! 🥰
So fun! Nice to see your face again friend x
Thank you so much Social media has been a struggle lately but I'm trying to get back into the swing of things!
How fun to visit some farms, seeing some animals definitely would put me in a great place. Loved all your purchases but especially liked the Twilight Rolags, the colors reminded me of the Southwest. Looking forward to seeing how you ended the semester. 😊👍👍👍
Thank you so much!! I desperately needed this break from school 😅 I'm hoping to post a school video soon!!
That was such an enjoyable recap of your trip to the yarn crawl, thank you!
Thank you so much!!
So upset that we missed each other! But, it looks like you had an AMAZING time and I can’t wait to see all the projects that you come up with. Great video like always 😁
You look so well. What a happy day. I have been trying to get around to some different fiber festivals in Washington. Next month maybe Montana. We don't have all the fiber animals that those farms had. That would be so amazing.
Thank you so much for your kindness I hope you have the chance to meet some fiber animals soon!!
I think you like neon green.
Petting sheep - a tried and tested way to relieve stress. Loved living this barncrawl vicariously through you!
It was the exact stress relief that I desperately needed 😅 Thank you for watching!
Thanks for bringing us along! The yaks are amazing. Fun fact: the different colors on a Jacob sheep can be different microns. (On the same sheep in case that wasn't clear) currently spinning Jacob and I have started knitting a shawl with a yak silk blend yarn I purchased.
Oooh, I didn't know that! Does that affect the fiber prep/spinning process at all? I would love to get a Jacob fleece someday. I just looooove how the yarn turns out!
Have you heard of wolf spinning? It is spinning raw fleece. With all the artful bumps and lumps. It will work for your style of creating and philosophy.
Ooooh, I haven't heard of that, but I'd love to learn more!
This looked like so much fun! Good to see you again and happy you are able to do some fiber things outside of school! 💙💙💙
Thank you so much!!
I’d love to hear how you do with the fleece! I’ve got my first ever (properly skirted) fleece en route to me in the mail. I’m nervous and excited to try something new! It’s just shy of 5lbs so 🤞 I don’t mess things up too badly
Oh my gosh that sounds like such a fun undertaking, good luck to you! I am jealous!! 🥹💕
