Wish I could have known someone like you and I could enjoy hours of learning crafting with you and just sit quietly and create create create and share these creations to make animals and children happy thanks it's so wonderful this lovely miniature party I never had much of a childhood and this allowed me to enjoy like a little girl

[@andreavincent4619]

I feel the same way.

[@barbaramartin6837]

This is exactly what I needed this morning. I agree with another commenter that this would make a beautiful children's book. I love that you had Lambie's eyes covered before she was surprised with her new sweater. Nice to see the brewing of the tea and preparation of the tiny treats. A beautiful and precious presentation. ❤️

[@Xx_Lara2323_xX]

This is ADORABLE! I love it & it was oh so cute! Would make a wonderful children’s book ❤️

[@carlaj9293]

It really would.

[@t.davila2997]

What a beautiful and touching video. So heartfelt and sweet. Thank you Tim, Chandi, and Little Friend for sharing ❤️🌷

[@SimiLoraine]

She's so cute; and, the video was a delightful break from life's chaotic moments. 🥰

[@14dori]

Comfort, calm, joy! Thank you for that. I need to sit, crochet and have tea this week. It’s on my schedule.

[@crochetcorner3218]

This is absolutely precious. Love it, so sweet. What a wonderful way to spend your day.

[@jeffreyrossman8661]

Hello Darlene How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

Can we just appreciate all the fabulous new (good quality!) tops Chandi is presenting?!

[@marybethdimarco3215]

Oh, Lord save us! This is cutest, most delightful and creative video! Thank you both so much for having fun through the hard work of filming this. 🙏🏼🥰

[@annebell5322]

Thank you for this. A treasured reminder of days gone by. Made me tear up for the longing of the times of peace, innocence and tea parties with our friends 💝🌹🥰

[@hartofcrochetbysheryl]

This was so sweet and so delightful to watch. The reveal part was so cute 🥰 You should make this a series. ♥️

[@jeffreyrossman8661]

Hello Sheryl. How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

[@pattiwankenobi]

This looks like such a relaxing, ideal day! At least for me… and I’m glad to see I’m not the only one who winds yarn in the kitchen… 😁

[@deirdreevans5533]

How adorable! So much fun. I was dying to see your little friend.. I LOVE her😍!! Reminds me of a tea party I had with my grand daughter, approximately 5 years ago. She invited her bear, giraffe and and elephant. I made homemade cinnamon rolls from scratch just for the tea party.🤗 It was so much fun. You are a joy to watch. The music is so relaxing. Have a blessed & peaceful day Chandi💜

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

That would be the best tea party... and homemade cinnamon rolls to boot! I love it! 💕💕

[@jeanneklaver9307]

Love, love, love this! WOW! I feel lighter. Thank you for helping me start my day in peace! Yes, please make more.

[@tracyevink647]

When I was a little girl, I would have tea parties with my Grandmother. This was such an adorable video and brought back many memories of her and her love of knitting. Thank You from the bottom of my heart.

[@sharonkeller7397]

I am also a lover of all things small! This was sooo much fun seeing you make this beautiful miniature sweater. Your Tea Party ,with the beautiful treats, and the ending with your sweet sweater being worn by your adorable sheep was so much fun to watch. I enjoy all of your videos so anytime you want to make a different kind of video ,such as this, is always welcome! Thank you Chandi x x Sharon :)

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Thanks, Sharon! 🥰🥰

[@rebeccacampbell8363]

So darn cute and sweet!!! So often we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of life. But we need the tea parties and time with family and friends to relax and recharge. Love this little video!

[@jeffreyrossman8661]

Hello Rebecca. How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

[@claremorley9845]

So precious for so many reasons. 💖Thank you very much 😊🙏

[@karentzn]

Oh my I did not stop grinning from start to finish for your video. I was thrilled to get peeks of your husband filming you. From the tiny knitting, to your graceful walking, setting up the tea, it is delightful to watch

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Oh, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@sarojchopra]

This is so cute. I just loved your little friend. How lucky she is !!!!

[@Mee1253]

I loved your video and so did my 5 year old. It was so magical. I loved the peace, serenity and just everything. Thank You ❤️

[@ivetaknazikova9909]

A charming way of showing knitting. Beautiful colors. Yarn quality.Thanks you for the video

[@moniquem8093]

what a peaceful beautiful video, so calm and enjoyable absolutely love it, thank you so much both you and your husband for taking the time to make those video's keep them coming,,

[@feeberizer]

What a lovely little party. I'm afraid my 2 cats would be "helping" a bit too much. 😻 I also love seeing your shelves of finished goodies, books, and what must be a tiny fraction of your stash of yarn. I'm certain my cats would be "helping" with those as well. And thank you hubs for another beautiful video! Have a great weekend!

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Thanks! I hope you have a fabulous weekend as well! 💕

[@sandybassett4901]

I will have to share this with my granddaughter who is eight years old. She will love it!

[@jsorensens2]

Utterly Charming! What a treat! ♥️

[@jeffreyrossman8661]

Hello Jane Sorensen. How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

[@joannvandiver869]

Absolutely love, love, love this. You are so adorable, talented and such a joy 😂 and Tim oh my goodness he is so awesome too. His photography is excellent. Love you both.

[@vickimerchlewitz]

So cute and beautiful and relaxing. Thank you.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Glad you enjoyed it! 💕

[@deborahkelly1489]

Loved every second of this video. Tell Mr.Tim to continue with this style of filmmaking. It was very relaxing and informative to watch. No loud , rude banging background music. The soft background music 🎶 was perfect. Thank you 🙏 for sharing your talent and tea 🫖 party !!

[@sharonking7978]

So cute. I was so excited for the tea party to start. Very relaxing day of knitting. She looked beautiful ❤️.

[@yvonnewebb5037]

Chandi, this whimsical video made my heart happy! Thank you and Tim for sharing your many talents. 😍

[@ruthkoons6234]

So precious 🥰 everything is just perfect ☕️🌸🙋🏼‍♀️

[@jeffreyrossman8661]

Hello Ruth. How are you feeling today I hope your day is as bright as your pretty smile today.

[@67ilsalund]

This video is absolutely adorable. You are gifted with a great talent and sensitivity. I agree with another commenter, you must write a book 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@tabi1900]

This is such a lovely video! I knit and crochet clothes for my teddies, and the love and enjoyment that goes into it is exactly how this video feels 😊

[@wolfg.3337]

Your videos are always so relaxing! When I was 12 I wanted to learn how to knit and thanks to you I learned!! ❤️

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

That is awesome!

[@FrancienDanielsWebb]

You look Beautiful in your new design love the colour. It saddens me that the cost of packing and postage is way out of my ability to buy yarn and that too. Australian knitters miss out of a lot of superb yarn because of the distance it must travel. For my 70th birthday on Wednesday 21st July I had a Gold High Tea delivered to my door by the creator of such gorgeous bits of deliciousness booked stunningly and a scented pink rose sprayed with gold and a pretty card and ribbon. We are in our 5th lockdown which has been extended of course no surprise there and a radius of 5 klms only except for groceries chemist and health professionals. Flowers were delivered too as well as Brooklyn Tweed Tartan for the Weekender by Andrea Mowery I could buy from the Skein Sisters in Sydney. I ended up ordering Malabrigo Rios to create Andrea Mowery's Nightshift. Oh how very sweet I thought it was going to be for a baby (human at first). But I love your llama or am I wrong should I say Alpaca. I looked after alpacas and one Llama called Diablo because he was a very naughty lad. I was there when he and a few young alpacas were surgically removed from their manhood. I held the head and neck up after surgery was completed ✅ as they would flop and that would be very dangerous for these young lads. Their mums sisters nieces and even Granma wasn't safe from their amores!!! It looks like your High Tea was enjoyed just like I enjoyed mine. Huge hugs Francien from Eltham Victoria Australia

[@maniacalmoz]

Happy Birthday Francien! With love from Maureen in Sydney 😘 (on lockdown too. Pulling my hair out trying to homeschool my child. I can't imagine why anyone would homeschool voluntarily. Both of us can't wait for school to restart!)

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

🥰🥰🥰

[@dinapabon2307]

Oh. My lord memories about my child time when I saw my mother on her machine making clothes and I used to take fabrics and make little dresses

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Precious moments

[@mollykay4412]

Dear Chandi, I truly don't have the right words to say how precious this video is. You have the beautiful gift of touching hearts. You're such a loving and warm soul. Thank you so much for touching my heart today. Much love to you and Tim from across the miles. 🥰❤️😘

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

😍😍

[@elsapositiva4041]

Me encanto, nunca debemos perder el niño que tenemos dentro, eso demuestra que somos mejores personas, un suéter muy lindo igual al de usted pero en pequeño para él.

[@magalycarballocorral3309]

Precioso! Ha sido una gran idea, me encanta la música de fondo, la tranquilidad y calidez que transmite el vídeo. Un gran trabajo.❣️

[@stacycuevas9050]

This was too cute and adorable. It reminded me a lot of “The Velveteen Rabbit” for some reason. The way you handle the tea party and Lamie was so fragile childlike way. Too cute. Loved every min of it! ☺️

[@MarciaCleare]

This is the most precious video I've ever seen. I loved it from start to finish. ❤️

[@marilynburke7609]

This was just beautiful. You at your creative best. You brought tears to my eyes. I am a sensitive soul. Too much sweetness. ☺️❤️❤️

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

💕💕💕

[@tracyguttenberg5659]

Such a sweet moment in life...makes me look forward to a tea party with my beautiful grand babies...they have the same tea set!

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

That will be such a precious moment. 💕

[@nabilahshuaib67]

I love these types of videos. You should do more. Put me in the right mood to knit a sweater, thank you for such amazing content!

[@juliahomeschoolmomtx3747]

This is such a beautiful piece of art. So heartwarming and pure. This made my morning! I can’t wait to share this with my 10 year old daughter who’s a very new knitter and huge lover of Doll Tea Parties. Hugs! Again…everything about this is beauty and love.

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

Hugs 🤗

[@susannelson3637]

Love this video. I wish I could give it more than one thumbs up. Your imagination is inspiring. You and Tim do it all so well.

[@bagpipegnat]

That was so sweet. Watched the whole thing. Hold the milk in my tea but the music was perfect for the story. Thank you!!

[@sharodeebee]

Absolutely beautiful and precious, every moment! I'm a crocheter and have always been intimidated by the idea of learning a new craft like knitting. This has helped me to see the loveliness in every little step. And your little friend is adorable! We have a lot of little friends around our home too. :)

[@tammyneufeld4373]

This is just so cute! Love this filming style. Lambic looks great in her sweater.

[@susangetzschman4029]

Oh my...so cute.

[@rosapool9768]

So sweet, peaceful, relaxing… love your videos, but this is one of my favorite. Love it 🥰

[@chrisb1682]

Man! Just perfect! A lady on my wavelength 😁 Thank you so much 😊💕🌿

[@audreyfleming3344]

Such a relaxing video. This is a great way to check and make sure you have the correct gauge and understand the construction of the sweater. You could also try this with different size doll or even newborn or toddler sizes depending on the type of sweater.

[@whisperjo2505]

This made my morning ❤

[@isithometimeyet6553]

In a world gone crazy this is too cute. Thank you!

[@carrenjstika1506]

This is the first thing I watched this morning. What a delightful and beautiful video. I fully agree with "nofaves" comment describing your videos as "Mister Rogers for grownup crafters." TOTALLY. The music is beautiful. The filming is -- well, exceptional. The details...the focus .... your calm... I loved this video!! Thank you!!! And thanks to your husband too.

[@wolfmaus13]

A little lamb like that needs a tiny flower crown. Matching ones would be adorable. Great to see the kid in you

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

That would be great!

[@keld4784]

Super cute! I loved watching you knit. It was so relaxing!

[@gloriapeterson3796]

I love this! You brought back the little girl in me…I’ve missed her. We also saw sneaky peeks of Tim!! Thank you Chandi and Tim for this cuteness of a story. Please create more of these. Hugs to you both!

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

I'm so glad you loved it 🥰

[@christineewing948]

Good morning, my beautiful friend! Once I saw this, I just lit up! This is so adorable! Also would be perfect for the little ones who would like to take up knitting. You are such a delight, my friend! I always love to see you every Friday! Btw the sweater you are wearing: GORGEOUS! ❤❤😍

[@summere.6225]

This was adorable beyond words! Also, I waved back to Tim a few times :)

[@lyndasmith593]

This was precious. That little sweater was so adorable. I'm just learning to knit on a magic loop and it's pretty challenging for me.. starting with socks. I think I when I understand the basic instructions it'll be super easy and I will enjoy it much more than the regular two needle knitting. Thank you for a fun breaking my morning. 😁

[@ExpressionFiberArts]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Yes, we have the adult version here: www.expressionfiberarts.com/products/keziah.html 💕
