I love this!! I’m from the Navajo Nation and take an interest in all things fiber arts as we have a long tradition ourselves in spinning and weaving.

[@MamamanaDoDo]

So amazing!! My two goddesses on one screen! I’m actually knitting right now with some fiber I bought from Abby a million years ago and spun:)

[@morningrose428]

Her book taught me so much when I was younger, and I still treasure it. Glad to see she's doing well!

Hello Evie 💞 and Welcome Abby 💜

[@melaniehellum1281]

My husband and his family were in Peru. In 2014 , his family was videoing some traditional spinning and wool dying demonstration I was at home learning to drop spindle. It was interesting to of been doing some of the same thing thousands of miles apart. And we had not called each other aether. Fun and wierd.

I can't wait to see your pictures/videos and textiles you make when you are in Peru! I am so excited for you! Travel advice...mail the kilos/pounds of fibers you acquire home rather than trying to stuff them in your suitcase. 😉

[@carlacrazymom]

If only....so many things...I would love go on this trip. Please take photos to share. I would be very happy to travel virtually. Be safe, have fun, and eat well.

[@CheapEngineerCrafts]

I’m not a traveler but this sounds like an amazing experience

[@azlynarnett1793]

I wonder if yall have any advice on how to start a 2 year old spinning? XD my son is super fascinated by all my fiber crafts and it would be so fun to include him!

[@barbaraireland6772]

Very interested in this trip. But not a paying patreon. Husband may come but all depends on your patreon numbers. This is really amazing.

[@shellyjackson216]

It would be a dream to go to Peru with other fiber inthusiists!! What are the codts for this trip??

[@shellyjackson216]

I meant costs.

[@PatriciaHaase-qk8hn]

Oooh so enticing… I’m already worried it will be sold out for both trips!

[@L-mm1rr]

How much does it cost?

[@maribethclark2798]

I so which I could join you Peru!

[@ambergraham103]

This was a wonderful exchange. I’m not even halfway through writing this, and I just had to comment and say thank you so much for bringing this moment on I do a lot of sewing, but weaving and fibers with something I always wanted to get into as a hobbyist. I respect it so much it is a labor of love. 🫶🏼

[@carolineritchey8139]

Two questions.... (One for Abby!) 1. Can we see the iternerary written out? The video cut out a bit on the replay. 2. Abby- I only spin on spindles at the moment but worry about my posture and and muscle fatigue.... Is there proper posture for spindle spinning? I am self taught and just do what feels comfy and works at the moment, but I dont want to cause long term damage.

[@teenyw]

Is it possible you will plan another trip in 2025? I'd love to start saving now!

[@samalama1725]

Boosting this comment. I dont think I can swing a trip in 2024 but would love to save for one further in the future!

[@JillianEve]

Yes! I'd love to do this yearly!

[@slhughes1267]

Bottom line: this trip is not your Home Territory. It's a different country. Things will not be like they are at home. If you, as a traveler, have any doubts of anything about the trip: Don't Go. Please, please, Please, don't be an Ugly Foreigner. Be aware that the area you're going to is essentially straight up and down/mountains. Big Mountains. Not likely to have Florida weather either.

IMG l would absolutely love to come visit Peru … l’m in UK so not sure how viable that is …. 🤍🤍🤍
