Share your thoughts on Nova Scotia hand-dyed yarn below! What other yarn dyers should I explore?

[@adelefuselier7934]

Socks!! Cashmere is so fun to work up!!!

[@sophie-loves-yarn]

All such lovely yarn and the cashmere would make a wonderful cowl

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@sophie-loves-yarn i am thinking a cowl as well, Sophie. Purl Soho has a nice simple bandana cowl that I am going to try to convert to fingering weight.

[@mhaen7539]

Always enjoy seeing the pretty yarn you get.

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@mhaen7539 Just like I always enjoy seeing your comment, Mary. ❤

Hi Diane! What beautiful yarns. Thank you so much for showing them, and it's nice to see a variety of both neutrals & popping colours. (Angela @MyPreciousYarnery moved from Ontario to Nova Scotia a year ago. The feel of her cotton is wonderful and I'm sure that the wool she hand dyes is lovely too.) Have so much fun at the Manitoba Fiber Festival, my friend!

[@mypinkbathtub]

Right! I haven't bought yarn from Angela yet. YET. I have bought a mystery bag from her once and it was fabulous!

[@JustFluffyQuiltingYarnCrafts]

Love this selection of beautiful yarns. TFS! ❤

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@JustFluffyQuiltingYarnCrafts So much yarn, so little time....hugs to you!

[@mylainelefteruk5241]

I absolutely adore the last skein you showed with the purple and mustard ❤ ! Cannot wait for our girls day outing this Friday at Manitoba Fibre Festival with Alice ! So much to see, so much to touch and buy. YAY us 🎉😂

[@mypinkbathtub]

I got a new sweater today just for the occasion. Wait until you see it! 🐑 🐏 🐑 😅

[@LochBriarKnits]

Well this was a super happy surprise!! Thank you so much for your kind words. That just made my week! Also - Scout says thank you as well. 🙂

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@LochBriarKnits Scout! I couldn't remember his name at the time! Thank YOU for the beautiful yarn and great podcast!

[@LochBriarKnits]

@@mypinkbathtub You're welcome - thanks for the shout out!

[@samanthacross3523]

Beautiful yarns Diane

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@samanthacross3523 Thank you Samantha ❤

[@oodlesacaboodles]

Hi Diane! Those yarn colors are gorgeous!

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@oodlesacaboodles Aren't they just, Vicki?

[@janice4892]

I love all your yarn choices. Lichen and Lace is another Nova Scotian yarn dyer that is a favourite of mine. What a great idea to choose a dyer from each province. I just found you and look forward to seeing your next purchase. 😊

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@janice4892 Hi Janice! Lichen and Lace are from Sackville, New Brunswick and I featured them last month. I have a playlist on the other provinces linked in the video notes.

[@nancymcmahon4640]

Thanks for sharing your beautiful yarn. I’ve knit a couple of 2 skein fingering weight short sleeve shirts. I’ve done the Rock It Tee three times and I’ve also knit the Misurina with 2 skeins and a contrast. Very happy with all of them!

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@nancymcmahon4640 Thank you so much for the tee suggestions, I was gifted the Rock it Tee pattern, and I am heading over to Ravelry now to check out the other one!

[@heatherf833]

I commented yesterday but I guess it didn't save. Oh well, take two! I've been waiting for this and you didn't disappoint! I've purchased from all of the dyers featured except for Loch Briar, thanks for introducing me to her yarn and her channel. You bought some beautiful yarn. If you are ever physically here in NS you must go to Gaspereau Valley Fibres in Wolfville (and their sister store the Wool 'n Tart). Amazing!

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@heatherf833 Hi Heather! I did see in my email that you commented yesterday, but couldn't open it or find it on this episode. Odd. I haven't been to Nova Scotia in years and hope to go back someday!

[@MadMimisCrochetandFarming]

Are we there yet????? Stop touching me!!!! Diane, Jan's touching me. Can't wait to see what you buy

[@mypinkbathtub]

Jan! Stop touching Laura! Don't make me come back there!

[@adelefuselier7934]

I wish I could go!! We are having a hurricane over here Wednesday and Thursday. You have great fun!!!! Take photos for me 😊

[@mypinkbathtub]

Tomorrow's episode is all about the Fibre Fest. Stay safe!

[@mamaggear]

Good morning, Swwet Cousin ❤ Love all those hanks. Gorgeous 😍 I haven't been to a fiber fest yet. It's on my Bucket List 😅

[@mypinkbathtub]

Hi! I hope you are on the mend Cousin ❤

[@AnAlaskanCrafterJan]

Diane, I AM NOT touching Laura, she's just jealous I get to sit next to the window cause I'm older then her! Love all the yarns HUGS

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@AnAlaskanCrafterJan Stop sticking your head out through window, Jan! Geez, I can't take you kids anywhere!

[@itsrainingyarn]

As long as I have yarn hook or needles you can put me in the trunk lol oh don’t forget I need snacks too 😂

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@itsrainingyarn Don't be silly, Russ! We need to put all of our new yarn in the trunk! Unless we get a roof rack!

[@itsrainingyarn]

@@mypinkbathtub ship it ups in my case a freight company lmfao 🤣

[@sarahnicol7767]

Man do I wish I was in Manitoba to meet and go yarn shopping with you.

[@mypinkbathtub]

Usually it is online shopping for me Sarah. This fibre fest will be a treat.

[@sarahnicol7767]

@@mypinkbathtub I hope you enjoy and soak up every minute of it.

[@lucieroy5160]

Hi Dianne, I've been eyeing yarn from Okanagan Dye Works. Canadian dyer in BC.

[@mypinkbathtub]

@@lucieroy5160 Hi Lucie, I showcased B.C. yarn in January, but it was on weekly videos , not like this all-in-one. I have never bought from them before but have heard of them. So many dyers, so little time!

[@judyscreationsincrochet2710]

I am sure you will have a great time. Have fun! What about Ravenswood Fibre Co? Did you put them in New Brunswick?

[@mypinkbathtub]

I talked about Ravenswood last month because when I bought from them they were still in N.B.
