Trish! You two are so cute! Yes this video showed us a wonderful weekend. Rhinebeck is on my list of must go to.

[@selmabair2998]

So much fun. Loved the jumping. Girl you are so very cool. Love love love the ball of roving and the shuttle necklace. What a wonderful weekend you had. Good for you.

[@pokelover02]

This is so fun! Thank you for making this video. Everyone has been talking about it, so I wanted to see it. I appreciate you sharing your experience ❤

[@TSUNAMI-MAMI]

Aww this looked so fun! The jumping was great ❤

[@rosalindtaylor3479]

One day I am going to a Rhinebeck Fiber Festival. So enjoyed this video!

[@manonbourque4717]

I LOVE your energy! I can't wait to see what you will create with this big ball of yarn. 🥰

[@Floras_Fiber_Farrago]

It looked like tons of fun! Excited to see what you make with some of your purchases, and I hope you have a good chunk of time during the holiday break!

[@kcurious8444]

Thanks for taking us along for this iconic event. You have such a presence on both sides of the camera. My spirits were lifted after watching the video, I was just smiling after a sort of rough day. It was surprising to see Good Clean Fiber in your haul as they are local to me. It’s a treat to have fiber sourced and prepared for the ultimate spinning experience. Our guild did a challenge with Jacob fleece to blend the 9ish colors to make a sheep hat. I look forward to seeing more of you on KZbin.

[@lauriedunn6198]

Yay! I've been waiting for this!

[@marinamartinez6886]

What a great show, thanks for sharing. Loved the jumping competition, what fun everyone had. Also, seeing Trish. 👍👍👍🐑🦙🐐🐇

[@jgordy4840]

Great overview of the festival, you are so positive. Love your free and creative attitude towards weaving. I definitely need to loosen up. 😅. Looking forward to seeing all of your work.

[@annefresia2102]

Oh, my favorite part of the world! It looks amazing and I really want to go see the jumping contest!

[@bookswithb2684]

Looked so fun!! You picked up some nice goodies.😊

[@jalyssa007]

Your vlogs literally make my day every time I see an upload ❤Keep making amazing content!

[@Diane18]

Your video psyched me up for mohair and Rhinebeck!!!!!!

[@TSUNAMI-MAMI]

Loved your woven jacket. So cute and flattering!

[@AndreaAlexander]

Thank you!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@lauriedunn6198]

Yup. Worth the wait! I am not fond of crowds, perhaps I should go on Sunday next year. I used to raise Jacob sheep. Don't be surprised if the different colors from the same sheep feel different. The black on my ram was much softer than his white wool. I have heard this from other Jacob breeders as well. It will be fun to see what you do with it

[@partyfiesta1557]

And this year there was no storm yay! As always a wonderful video. I heard of a fiber festival in Switzerland so I’m saving up to travel there. Hugs from Aix en Provence, Adrien

[@infamoussphere7228]

This video was a delight!

[@Mimulus2717]

Wow, what a nice compilation of what looked to be a fantastic weekend. The tree color against the blue skies almost as good as your lovely outfits. I look forward to seeing what you make with all your purchases. We have a much smaller fiber festival near me in Monroe, WA in the spring. Someday would love to attend Rhinebeck, thanks for helping me be there virtually.

[@AmberBole]

Looks like you had a blast... this is definitely a bucket item location one of these yars!

[@981Bean]

I feel like my love for purple has rubbed off on you lol. Looks like you had a blast!

[@teacat55]

Fun! I got to go to Rhinebeck….with a great tour guide!

[@MijnWolden]

Serious yarn festival envy. Next year they better include a transportation device to europe 😂

[@CarrieMtn]

Andrea you made the festival seem so much fun! I love your purchases- especially your beetle button. Have you read /listened to the book Miss Benson’s Beetles? It’s an endearing story about a search for a beetle.

[@iana7275]

what a coincidence! was rewatching your rhinebeck 2020 vlog while waiting for a new video and you make an upload about this year's one! this festival seems so fun!! it must be really cool to be surrounded entirely by people who share the love for yarns and textiles for a few days! ❤ and it's so easy to share your joy, your videos always put a smile on my face and inspire me 😊❤

[@saragreenfield1648]

The algorithm recommended this video for me, and oh my goodness you are amazing! Subscribed so fast, I want to be your friend! Look forward to seeing your other work!!!

[@AndreaAlexander]

Ahhh that makes me so happy, thank you!! 🥹❤️

[@madie5092]

I was wondering if you would consider doing an "everything you need to get started weaving" video. Christmas is coming up and it's the perfect time to ask for a baby loom. Don't know if you could compile your recommendations for looms, textiles, and tutorial videos to watch to get started for beginners.

[@lunardesignstudiolinda1256]

We would all to meet you! How about a Sunday meet up on the hill next year? Please

[@kristalburns3490]

EEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

[@cherylelinsmith743]

Watching this video and drooling over all the beautiful yarns. I live on the border of the Bronx, but would not be able to afford to go to the festival, sad to say. I loved the sweater you were wearing, can't believe that is the first one you did. I've not knitted any sweaters since the 80's My Mom used to sew them up for me. Now I just knit hats, cowls, scarves, and wraps. Sweaters are just too time consuming to knit, and sewing is not my best skill. If I can ever save up to take Amtrak to Rhinebeck and back, would just go for the day. Is there a bus that can take you to the fair grounds from train station, and back? For now I'll just do the NYC Yarn Crawl. Going to go to Brooklyn Heights to go to Woolyn on Atlantic Ave, and the Brooklyn General Store on Union Street. I wish Purl Soho would reopen, my friend is getting my yarn from their website for me. Great video, your skill is really good, I'm trying to learn to get better at it. I used to have a website to sell my handmade jewelry, and hand knits, so took all my own product photos. I was pretty good at it, but video is harder for me, even with my iPhone.

[@kywire._]

This is literally everything ofc ~~~~ and EPIC HAUL!!!! (ETA: that collar pattern is so cute I'm so excited to see it in that lavender mohair) Do you have any advice for trying to get into Rhinebeck? I tried researching tickets/registration at the start of this year but couldn't really find any info for Rhinebeck 2022... maybe 2023 :~)

[@beachpurls]

Hello! New subscriber here, I'm putting two and two together, do you go to FIT for weaving? Asking bc I graduated from there with major in weaving!! Love your pendant!!

[@AndreaAlexander]

Yes, I'm a textile design student at FIT! 😃 We don't have the option to specialize anymore, but I'm definitely having the most fun with weaving 🥰 Thank you for watching!! ❤️❤️❤️
