It's amazing to see all those stages of the wool process through different machines until it gets in the recognisable shape of a skein, ready to be knitted. And the food on that retreat looks absolutely delicious.❤

That retreat couldn’t have been more perfect!!! If that’s your baseline, it’s going to be tough to top that! The visit to Junction Fiber Mill was amazing. I watch Peggy and Amanda’s podcast and they are so adventurous and hard-working! I purchased 2 skeins of their Making Tracks and one of them was Lookout Ledge which I think you also picked out. The colors are gorgeous and the fiber is wonderful to work with. Looking forward to the other interviews you did on the retreat.
