    Thank you for sharing this wonderful retreat with us. I loved everything - the drive up, the food, the mill tour…♥️😍
    I see that the trip home was a little more weather-y ❄️and am thankful that y’all got back home safely.

      Yeah, on the way back we got into snow squalls, but everyone made it home ok

    It's amazing to see all those stages of the wool process through different machines until it gets in the recognisable shape of a skein, ready to be knitted. And the food on that retreat looks absolutely delicious.❤

    Living the fibre dream! What a wonderful retreat. The best thing about a chef is that you don't have to stop knitting to prepare meals. Glad you made it home safely through the snow storm.

    That retreat couldn’t have been more perfect!!! If that’s your baseline, it’s going to be tough to top that! The visit to Junction Fiber Mill was amazing. I watch Peggy and Amanda’s podcast and they are so adventurous and hard-working! I purchased 2 skeins of their Making Tracks and one of them was Lookout Ledge which I think you also picked out. The colors are gorgeous and the fiber is wonderful to work with. Looking forward to the other interviews you did on the retreat.

      There are a bunch of Australians that are arriving to Vogue knitting. Perhaps someone could grab you a skein and ship it once they are back to Australia
