Knoxville knitter here! I would 10/10 recommend the yarn tour to anyone local. It was so fun to see everyone and meet all the yarn shops people. Definitely so participate next year if you can
You had the right thought. That is a card catalog cabinet. Before computers and the internet, there was a card for every single book in the library and they were put in order of the Dewey decimal system. That is how you would find your book in the library. I would LOVE to have a card catalog cabinet. The library was one of my favorite places as a kid.
Yep, there were actually three cards for each book: title, author, and subject. And while school and public libraries use Dewey for both card and electronic catalogs, college and university libraries typically use the Library of Congress classification system.
I'm fortunate to have two three-tier gorgeous oak and brass card catalogs that are they're useful for holding all kinds of items like paint and other art supplies, cookie cutters, and even bottles of wine! They take up a lot of room relative to how much they hold, but I'll never part with them. I love the little pull out shelves where you wrote down the number of your book. How great that you appreciate the cabinets too! I see them for sale on EBay and antique sites quite often, so I hope you're able to find one someday!
That’s what we had when I was in college. That and microfiche and huge volumes full of abstracts. Fun!
@@kalenreichert Ha! As a librarian nothing made me happier than the invention of electronic periodical databases, even when they were still CDs and index only. Looking up each year in books was sooo painful!
Lucky me I found a Dewey decimal card cabinet in a shopping cart at a department store without thought I loaded the old girl up cleaned her up added bun feet love it
Smokey Mountains colour is BEAUTIFUL!
Me, literally living in Chattanooga not knowing about this event. 😂
Petition for Kent's Critters Friends to be a permanent segment! Also, we could have used more Alpaca footage!
THIS IS AWESOME❤
THANK YOU FOR SHARING 🙏 ✝️ ❤️
Thanks for the fun yarn store tour! 😊
Hi Natalie, I loved, loved this yarn tour video!! It’s so nice to see -and almost feel- the yarns through your eyes and your camera..! Thank you so much!
The alpacas! Love ❤
Once a Texan, always a Texan…it’s not a road trip without a stop at Buc-ee’s for a treat/meal! You and Kent make an amazing team…especially loved the segment Kent’s Critter Friends 😂. And seeing all of the unique features of each individual yarn shop. So excited for your upcoming episodes/videos.
Can we just talk about how awesome Kent’s Critter Corner is? 😂😂😂
Halfway through, HOUSES as yarn shops!! Amazing, as someone who lives in the UK that has blown my mind! Such a lovely video :D!
the critter section killed me! I LOVE IT!
TU for a wonderful tour of the Yarn s Shops❤❤❤
I have to say I absolutely loved following you around on your TN Yarn Tour. I want to go to each of these shops someday. This is by far one of your best videos. I can't wait for more yarn tours.
So fun! This totally makes me want to be an alpaca farmer!!
Natalie and Kent, well done!! Your lovely and cheerful spirit was a beautiful pairing with the amazing yarns and scenery. I was very fascinated by the house-shops; it felt like one could drop in and hang out with friends for hours! The cozy cottage vibes were perfect when you sat in the rocking chair to knit, too 🤭 Also, THANK YOU KENT for humoring the critter lovers among us! 😁💗🧶🦙
You are making such lovely memories for yourself and Kent. Thank you for taking us along with you x
I love the Smokey Mountain Spinnery!! Beautiful shop and such friendly folks!!
The alpacas are SO cute! We could have used 5 more minutes of space footage. 😊 thanks for a fantastic yarn tour.
Hey don't encourage, Kent! lollll
This is such a fun event and partly in my area. Great yarn shops, ranches and fiber mills. Great yarn/fiber and yarn friends! Thanks so much for doing this tour in my back yard. Are you still in the area? You have a following here.
Thank you for sharing the beautiful yarn shops in my home state of Tennessee..
I just watched this with my mother. We’re from Europe and we are amazed with all the locally dyed yarns. Unfortunately that’s not really huge here. Keep up the good work. One of your best episodes so far.
That piece of furniture was called a card catalog. 😊
I’m my fantasy world I will own one and have it in my craft room. 😍
Me too. 😍
I have a mini one in my home office (holds my printer/scanner) but didn't think to use it for needle storage. :)
The alpaca's are so cute!! 💜💜💜
That was so much fun Natalie. Your new tank top looks great on you.
The tank is beautiful
Absolutely loved this tour! Thank you for taking us along. I was really impressed with the Two Roots tour and their process to make yarn. Those pics of the Alpacas next to their yarn skeins made my heart melt...like I would seriously buy a skein from each...lol. 😊
So fun!
That was fun! So many beautiful things!
I love those removable buttons!
YESSS Kent's Critter Friends!!!!
Amazing! So much wonderful yarn and goodies! Glad Kent found a few critters too!🤣
Hi Natalie, loved coming along with you on the tour 🥰 thanks for bringing me with you all the way from Australia. I have a few beautiful yarn stores an hour or two from where I live on the Gold Coast in Queensland, and love to visit whenever I can. I used to live in Sydney and would visit a fantastic yarn store in the CBD. I miss the days when I could visit at least once a week on my lunch break. Glad that we have online stores and we can buy yarn from all over the world these days.
My absolute dream would be to open a store that sells yarn and cupcakes. 🥰
Thanks so much for the great coverage of my bags!! Clinch River Yarn Co is a great little yarn shop.
Oh my goodness!! I loved watching this!! I didn’t want to miss a second of it. Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I’m going to watch it again 😀
Yay Kent's Kritters is back!
I really enjoyed the tour. Thanks for sharing.
Wow cool content❤ stay connected🇲🇨🙋🌻
Outstanding video. I wanted all the yarn and I would also take a couple of the alpacas. Thank you for bring us all along.
Thanks for sharing! That was really cool to watch!
What an amazing tour! You guys did a phenomenal job with this. Thank you so much for the fun journey
This was such a fun video. Thanks for sharing your adventure.
Oh My God!!! You Have No Idea I Have Been Wanting To Know Where I Can Get Some Yarn ,.. My Step- Daughter Lives In Tennessee,.. Now I Can Get With Her And Send Her The Money To Get Me Some Yarn,. I'm From Louisiana,. They Don't Have The Kind Of Yarn I Need... Oh Thank You So Much For This Tutorial... 😁☺️👍💜🙂🙃😀😁💜😘☺️😊
Thankyou so much for videoing the yarn tour in Tennessee. They were all amazing and I loved seeing the farms and the alpacas too. The flowing stream outside the balcony on one of your stays was so lovely. There was so many beautifully dyed yarns. Did you buy any? I am sure it was so hard not to if you didn't and would have been hard to choose if you did. The background country music for the video was great. Thankyou Natalie and Ken.
the alpacas reminded me of the alpaca show my sister and I used to watch on bbc (cbbees) when we were younger. 🥰 Its all about the nolstagia.
Oh my god, those alpacas 😍😍😍 Is it crazy I want one??
All of the neutrals at Two Roots 😍😍😍😍
❤🎉 “My” yarn stores are Clinch River and Loopville (honorable mention to The Yarn Patch and Hook & Needle). I feel so proud to see my neighbors’ hard work featured on your channel. 😍
Love this so much. Hook and Needle is my local yarn store and I love that you were able to show off the amazing shop!! Welcome back to East TN! :)
This was so much fun. Thank you for sharing!
I'm doing this tour as well! I had so much fun at the alpaca shops.
That was fun! Thanks for sharing that with us. I’ve been to 2 of those shops. Smoky Mountain Spinnery and The Yarn Patch. ❤️
That’s so thoughtful of you Danielle, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Wow what a wonderful tour thank you for sharing it was a true delight.
This is great! I’m from Virginia but my son and daughter-in-law live in Knoxville so we travel to east TN quite often. Can’t wait to check out these places! 😊
Great yarn tour I love Tennessee and will definitely be stopping by some of these beautiful shops on my next visit
Loved This video, especially Kent's Critter Friends!
Wow how amazing to have such a variety of stores all in one state!! I think there's barely more than 13 non big-box yarn stores in all of Australia. Luckily there are lots of small indie dyers that sell at markets quite regularly though.
Thank you so much for taking us along on this tour...this video has me soooo excited for all of your upcoming fiber adventures! I already have a list of yarn shops I am making based on your videos so that I can do some yarn store travels, too! I don't know why, but the Kent's Critters segment made me laugh so much! If you can't figure out what to do with your yarn TN yarn tour minis, maybe some of the ones that are not made up of the same fiber content can be made into ornaments.
Great tour! I always stop in at Smokey Mountain Spinnery when I visit family in the area
Very nicely done. Makes me want to go out and find these shops and buy yarn.
Wow! Thank you so much for sharing! I was so excited to see a yarn tour in beautiful Tennessee. No words can describe the beauty of those mountains! Great Job Gillian on the yarn tour! I hope there's one next year.
Oh my!! Just got to watch this, have grandkids this week, but my little one loves the Kent’s Critters 😂❤😂❤😂
I loved this episode! Living in TN it is so great to see yarn stores I didn't know were here. I loved Kent's Critters, very fun! The only thing I would love to see maybe added in the future is highlighted map where we can get a visual of where in the State these stores are.... Especially as you are going to all the states. It may not be possible just a thought. Thank you for all the hard work and great episode you put together.
That’s so thoughtful of you Katie, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Kent's Critters had me cackling!
Wonderful video! Now, please show us your new yarn. 😂❤
I loved seeing all the unique products in the store. That no store that raise alpacas and the make the yarn from them would be an interesting place to visit.
That’s so thoughtful of you Geniel, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Being allergic to wool, I'm especially excited to see the Alpacas. I love that you can get undyed black Alpaca yarn. I want. :D
I`m so glad you made it to Crossville TN. The Yarn Patch is a great store. We have knitting and spinning groups meeting there and the owner is very accommodating.
Love the critter screen grab
This is so much fun! TY
Thank you for doing slow shots of the yarn. I'm drooling. So many beautiful stores. In new Zealand it costs between $30 - $50 for 100gm of indie dyed yarn.
Smokey Mountain Spinnery is one of my favorites! I go every time i'm in the area.
Natalie (and Kent) this was such an amazing video!! I felt like I was watching something educational on PBS (a compliment!!)
Just love this journey of yours, really nice first episode of your trip around US, looking forward to seeing the rest …❣️
You both did an amazing job!! Thanks for sharing the beautiful scenery and yarn!!
Great to get to see all these stores in Tennessee 💚
Hoi Eef, heerlijk hé dat spinnen? Ik vind het zelf ook enorm ontspannend. Binnenkort hoop ik een spinnewiel van ashford aan te schaffen om nog meer te kunnen spinnen.... voor nu doe ik alles op m'n tolletje😊
I just loaded up on fiber at the Smokey mountain spinnery, a few days prior to your visit.
Excellent production, guys! Fun and informative 😊
That was so much fun! I love the mini skeins. I think the NJ Wool Walk should do that next year.
What a fun event, looks like so much fun!
Loved this video! I visited TN for the first time in June, and while I didn't get to any yarn shops, I loved the area and beautiful scenery. I saw Fireflies for the first time and even stopped at that same Buc-ees. 😂 Thanks for taking us along with you guys!
Hermoso tours ❤lanas y mas lanas me encanta saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾
What a cool idea! I live in the area and had no clue this was happening. I'm excited to visit some local yarn shops I had no clue about!
Aww yay! Enjoy!
You've made me wish I could take this tour! Very nice.
Thanks for doing this. I haven't been to the East side of the state in years.
That’s so thoughtful of you Carol, Thanks for your positive review,How are you and how’s the weather over there?
Loving the music for this podcast!!
Enjoying the yarn crawl as well, if I’m ever in TN I know where to go 😊
So sad, I was in Gatlinburg two christmas’ ago and the shops were closed due to the snow storm and power outage.
Nothing like beautiful yarn and a rushing stream to make my heart happy. Seriously I love water color m motion, it is very calming. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
That looked like so much fun. Thanks for bringing us along! I am going to try to get that knitted chicken kit, so cute!
Mom and I will be finishing up the tour next week! Thanks for all the content. It’s great getting to see a glimpse of what's to come.
I like the consistency when you do all the tour yourself. Perhaps a hello from the shop owner but you know what we want
This is like Blue Peter for yarn :D
What a great tour, you guys did a wonderful job, and very professional! Enjoyed all the shops, with their different take on merchandise!
Çok teşekkür ediyorum keyifle seyrettim
Kent is wearing a Luffy shirt!
Good job, you two!!! Very professional and entertaining! A lot of work I'm sure but you make it look easy. Good luck on your journey! 😊
I love that Summer in the smokies yarn and the sheep/yarn earrings!
We want the alpaca out takes! Ken: you can do it! (Great video guys.)
What a delightful episode! I’ll be re-watching this one for sure.
Kent’s critters may be my favorite part of this video!
