Been making Keps using Ann Sinclair's wonderful pattern for years, great seeing where it actually comes from! The background music though is both intrusive and unnecessary and frankly extremely annoying. Film would be great without it.

Dear Benjamin, 4 years later, here I am at nigh 80 years old & lifetime knitter & teacher of same to men, women, children, and all special needs. I adore stranded knitting and thank you for your choice of topic in your college course. I think everyone has critiqued you to pieces with your film making, so I will reserve my opinion. 😊 Best of all that is good on you, dear lad, in whatever your heart desires❣️👍🤗

Thank you so much, your words are very impactful and make me happy to know that people have enjoyed the documentary. I have learned and grown a lot since I shot this project and most of the critics are valid and I would agree with them but yeah they're a little harsh so I appreciate you not destroying my work to shreds. Haha even if it was deserved! I wish you the best of luck and hope that people learn to love knitting as much as you!

​@@thebenjaminburtonThank you for your kind words, Ben. A new friend told me just 2 days ago that It's no surprise I am such a knitter...my DNA is so Viking, Celtic, Norse. My hands show the proof of Viking bloodlines with the frozen arched fingers of Dupetren's Sydrome. As long as I can knit & teach, I am happy.🤗 Bless you in your journey, Ben🙏

How hard did you find it to get a job in the USA when you came back? Did companies look at it poorly on your resume?
@thebenjaminburton

While I've never gotten a job specifically because I worked abroad teaching English. I have gotten jobs because of my ability to speak Spanish fluently. I will say that it also sets you out from other people who have little to no life experience outside of simply going to college and then straight to work. I will also say that most people tell me that they're jealous or "wish I would've done something like that after college" I'm biased but I will always recommend that people spend some time outside of America and experience more of the world. It's up to you but in my experience it won't get you any jobs but it absolutely won't hurt you or stop you from getting jobs but it will help you stand out. I'd say go for it, you definitely won't regret it!

Thanks for posting this - I enjoyed it very much. You needed to have shown yourself knitting, Benjamin, in order to show you've got knitting chops! Or at least show *someone* doing some hand knitting (even if it's you!). And what kind of sheep are we looking at there? Very enjoyable. Did you make a career out of this documentary-making business??

With its lovely content, this could have been a fascinating documentary, but unfortunately the incidental music was too loud and busy--it detracted from the interviews in an unprofessional, even disrespectful way, as if you didn't actually want your interviewees' voices and words to be heard. I don't believe you intended this, and now I see farther down in comments that you're aware of the problem and wish you could do a do-over. Three years later, I imagine your skills have greatly improved! I wish you the best.

I had to stop watching this due to the annoying music/noises that made it virtually impossible to understand what the interviewees were saying. Too bad because it appeared to be otherwise well produced.

i've been to fair isle a few times, it's really worth a visit. and not at all so difficult to do as you might expect. if you're an artist, you might like to do a residency at fair isle studio.

Beautiful film. Thanks for doing it and sharing I am an old granny knitter and found the background music and sounds made the interviews difficult to hear. Using subtitles was distracting because of so many wrong words. Fair Isle was always printed as feral. But lovely and informative film.

Hi from PDX. Was watching "the repair shop". They mentioned in a spinning wheel segment about fair Isle,that wheels parts would be made from wood washed up from the sea, since there's no trees there.
