Oh my gosh! I lived in Halifax 10 years ago for grad school and picked up an absolutely beautiful skein of rustic green wool that still had lots of lanolin in it at the weekend market. Long story short, I didn’t get much time to knit that year and gifted the hat I made to a dear friend but have since often wished I’d bought more of that yarn or at least taken some details down. I’m now pretty sure it was Lismore Farm yarn! The mother and daughter manning the market stall were absolutely lovely and so welcoming when I admitted it was only my second day in the province. Thank you so much for this lovely video! You brought that memory back to me in full texture and I am off to browse their online shop 🧶
Awwww what a lovely story, thank you so much for sharing ❤️ It probably was Lismore because they still sell at the Halifax market and their yarn is pretty sheepy, in a good way 🐑😉
Such a small world! I just moved from just north of Sarasota, FL. I used to go to the store in south Sarasota where you got that beautiful teal mohair!
I loved seeing all your local to you yarns and the projects you have planned for them ! My 2 favorites were the first turquoise one and then the yarn from taproot! Can't wait to see these in progress
Ok I just fell in love with your skeins of ‘Standing Out in a Crowd’ and I thought that it would be perfect for the pattern i had just bought which also is a yoke pattern! I look forward to seeing your finished piece! Looks like a very pretty pattern.
@@annastephenson351 it's not as bad as Lettlopi, but it's a little scratchy. If you add some hair conditioner to the bath when you block it, that helps soften it up. I wouldn't wear it on sensitive areas like your neck, but otherwise it's fine for next to skin.
Hi Whitney!! Finally I was able to catch up with your video and omg so much BEAUTIFUL yarns😍 My personal favourite was the rustic green and light grey wool thta you want to make your lord of the rings inspired sweater out of... the sheep farm you bought it from, is the one you have little clips in the video's intro am I right??
Yes! That's the same farm! It's such a lovely place and we love going there 🐑 Those yarns are some of my faves and I really hope I can make that sweater soon!
I just found your channel and this is my first video! I can’t wait to watch more! ❤
Glad to see a video about Canadian yarns.

Thank you so much! Sam's yarn is SO pretty!
The Lismore Farm yarn is such a good price!! I wonder if they ship to the uk as some of the colours are stunning!
I know, it's such a steal! 😍
@@knittedbywhitney how "rustic" feeling is it?
