I think Kelsey should be a teacher, as she breaks everything down so well. I still love the one where she talked about the different weights of wool. Love Maggie's sweater, the subtlety of contrast. Such rich autumn colors, they look like wee acorns. And esp. loved the Battenkill Fiber talk. Your interviews with wool people are always so rich with story and history. Really enjoyed the Armscote and Uradale interviews of the past. Thank you and Happy Easter if you celebrate it 🐇🌷🐣
It all sounds wonderful. I’m not sure I could pick just one tour. Thank you for using your own knowledge to back up the tour guide’s information. It all just confirms the authenticity of the guide’s knowledge. So many places I’d like to see now.
What a fantastic episode!!!! All segments were interesting and entertaining but the interview with Mary Jeanne was my favorite. I am not in a position to travel that much in this phase of my life and when i do, i "just" go home to Italy to visit my family....yet, one can dream and Mary Jeanne words and expertise kindled a big spark...I'd love to join her for every trip, but the Norwegian itinerary is simply mind-blowing. I watch Arne and Carlos and Eli of Skeindeer and I have been a fan of Oleana for a long time. Maybe one day!
Those Norwegian mittens that Emma is finishing! Swoon! So gorgeous! And I want to make that sea glass tee as well. What a great use of scraps. This shopcast was super inspriring!
Another inspiring shopcast. I had to laugh at Maggie’s remark on suddenly noticing that she was supposed to have changed needles. I have done that too! The lamb is so cute. Especially nice with the mohair added. And I agree with Emma on reaching a point when all the WIPs need to be finished.
Lovely shopcast ladies! Now I want to travel to Norway! What a great interview! Maggie your lambie is so sweet and I can’t wait to see her with her new dress. I almost never get to watch these episodes on time but when I do, I so enjoy knitting along with you. Thank you !
It's always fun to spend time with you through your shopcast. All segments were interesting, as always and it was fun to learn a bit more about how your Rambler yarn is made. Oh the knitting travel inspiration! I wish I could do it all!!
Corinne, I think I remember when you did a KAL for vanilla sweater during the pandemic, at which time I had no time to participate because I was a little (a lot) overwhelmed by switching work to online, and the general stress of those times. But, your invite (if I am remembering correctly!) was a real spot of sunshine, and every time you talk about your vanilla sweater I remember that! I wish I had participated back then, but I will say thank you for doing that! And, if I am remember the timing incorrectly, for whatever reason, it does remind me of a very nice idea at a challenging time. Thank you!
As always, your shop cast was a delight. I was particularly taken by Mary Jean's description of her travelling adventures. I dreamed myself onto one of those trips, particularly Norway. I live in the Maritimes and can say those travelers will experience an excellent tour there.
Loved your intro today because what first drew me to your shop and what keeps me coming back again and again is your rustic, non-super wash yarn. I love that not only does it support the small farms, but is also good for the environment! Thank you for the wonderful yarn and inspiration ❤️
Once again, I loved spending my evening with you two ladies. I enjoyed learning about Rambler. And now I really want to go on a trip 😉 Thanks for another fun show.
LisaR: I was fortunate to take classes from Lucy Neatby in Cornwall Ny , about 15 yrs ago ..She's a fabulous teacher. Some of the best knitting tips & techniques I still use came from her wealth of knowledge & unforgettable personality ❤
Always enjoy your shop casts. Maggie you and those cute little toys. I may have to get that book to see how I can text my patience. 🤣. Emma gave me ideas for my tons of Shetland wool scraps for sure. I get her idea of clearing up wips before diving into a major project but hey it never happens for me 🤣. Again great Shop Cast enjoy you both and shopping at the Wooly Thistle always
Another great episode, as usual! I loved seeing Maggie’s knitted critters from the book. I wish I were more of a critter-knitter, because her duck and sheep are just too adorable. I was LOLing at you two inhaling all the yarn fumes, especially the Daughter of a Shepherd yarn that you left in the bag in order to concentrate the fumes 😂
Always something to learn! Thank you ❤ loved Emma and Kelsey’s segments. I’m test knitting for Ozetta using Saona held with Biches & Buches silk mohair. Do check out Ozetta’s patterns for Saona. Some knitters might be excited to know this fabric produces a beautiful transition season sweater and knits up on a US 7.
I appreciated the conversation with Mary Jean about the making of Rambler--very interesting to hear about how a non-superwash sock yarn is put together!
What a great interview with Mary Jeanne Packer. She also had a good interview on the Long Thread Podcast which your listeners may also enjoy. Really enjoyed hearing about your lovely Rambler yarn design.
A great episode! I wish I could go everywhere with Mary Jeanne...all the trips sound dreamy. And it's always good to see what you and your "fiber correspondents" are working on.
first time viewer. your shop was a real lifesaver for me as my daughter recently visited Iceland and brought back some yarn for me to make her a scarf. unfortunately she didn't get enough for the pattern she chose, but I found some on your site, and the product came out wonderful!! Thanks so much!
Love your podcasts! and products! you have inspired me to "try" to knit a sock a month and that Daughters of a Shepard yarn (along with the John Arbor) was in my shopping cart before your podcast ended! can't wait to knit with them.
Congratulations on another great shopcast! Absolutely on fire and all of your contributors were on song too. I loved your interview with Battenkill Fiber Mill. ❤❤
Thanks for a great shop cast as always! You always inspire me to keep making and expand my skillset! You’re a real gem in the world of knitting :) can’t wait for the shawl KAL to kick off and see what all of the other makers will be creating.
I am new to your Shopcast, which I am really, really enjoying and so informative. Your enthusiasm for sock knitting is catching and I am just starting to cast on my first pair of socks and maybe a sweater next when I see you lovely garments you wear on the Shopcast. Thank you to you both.
Thanks for another great episode! I loved the segment with Mary Jeanne of Battenkill Fibers AND Battenkill Textile Tours. I’ve been searching for a knitting tour and I think I’ve found the right company. The Norway trip has certainly peaked my interest. Also, happy to learn about her work to preserve this industry.
Thank you for the episode. The sections from Kelsey and Emma and the interview were great. I look forward to the shawl along to finish my shawl I have barely started in a beautiful oragami pattern using an excellent rustic wool.
What a great episode. The woolly thistle should do a Scotland trip. I bet it would sell out in record time. Meet up with Rachel ….that would be a blast.
Really enjoying your podcasts and appreciate all the special guests and postcards from Fair Isle. 😊 I agree that I am not tempted to spin but I am very new to knitting so I still have so many skills to work on with the knitting alone. I joined the KAL - yay!! 😊🎉
I want to knit everything you showed today!!! I was impressed by how many kits you sell on your website! I enjoyed every segment and also did the yoga!! First I watched the yoga while continuing to bind a quilt, then I thought oH go on!! and I did the entire yoga segment and really enjoyed it! THank you!
I visited Norway last year and went to Oleana. It was truly amazing! This was definitely one of the highlights of this trip. We went to Rauma as well - another highlight. The drive along the Troll Road was breathtaking! The whole trip was wonderful. I'd love to get back to Norway someday.
So glad to see the return of Peace Fleece. Such beautiful colors. I hope they stick around now. And Maggie's sheep toy reminds me to finish up the squirrel from that book! I think I just need to stuff the critter and put buttons on the dress. I still am amazed at how well the instructions are written for them. I also used J & S 2 ply and quite happy with the results.
For Christmas, my husband gave me the Vanilla Sweater course with the yarn. This is my first sweater and I am super excited. I have one sleeve and the neckline to finish. It has been fantastic having Corinne walk me through it! Thanks.
What a great Friday, TWT, knitting, tea, and spring is in the air! Maggie, I didn’t finish my Latvian mittens either, maybe they’ll be ready next winter!😂 On to the next KAL! Aggie is adorable, We need to see that dress when it’s ready! Clearly I’m going to need to get that book! Kelsey, thanks for teaching all the things I didn’t know I didn’t know! Y’all have made my day! Hope your weekend is spectacular!
Wow ! That was a jam-packed, fun-filled episode filled with all the Woolly Goodness any knitter could ask for !!! Now I'm trying to figure out how much money I need to save for a knitters' dream tour-of-a-lifetime: I want to go to Norway, or even the Maritimes, closer to home...both trips sound perfect, but Scotland would be the ultimate...nudge nudge Corinne :) You ladies are the Best though, at bringing us the finest yarns to sample...Love Rambler for its heritage and versatility !
I am really enjoying your talk with battenkill textiles. I have knitted 3 Sidsel Hoivig sweaters and the crocheting was very challenging. I am going to the PEI fiber festival this fall. her tours sound fantastic. such an interesting and informative shopcast.
Love your shop, love the wooly wool yarn, and I make lovely wooly items with the yarn! I sure do wish you did these shop casts once a week because I love to watch you guys. I’d love to lay in a bath tub full of wooly yarn, don’t you think that would be fun?
Again, thank you so much for another interesting and fun podcast. I love all the yarns you show, and I hope to place an order in a few months. I can’t wait.
I love the book bundles, I look forward to more and more. (Love that Ann Cleeves series). Knitting and reading -- my two favorite things. Thank you for the Hap explanation,
Had a great time completing the colorwork KAL. Like Corrine, I think I will use the Shawl KAL as an opportunity to revisit (aka finish) my Montbretia Hap. Thank you for the interview with Battenkill Fibers. I had an opportuity to see their work at Maryland Sheep and Wool last year and, of course, to purchase some great wool. You are lucky to have them as partners in the production of Rambler. ❤😊
Wonderful shopcast!! Corrine, I think you should plan to celebrate The Woolly Thistle's 10th anniversary taking some of the tours mentioned. You have a superb staff to cover the bases and YOU'VE EARNED IT!!! I loved the mention of knitting as the shorthand for friendship....so, so true. Can't wait for the Shawl Along. I'll be finishing my HAP I started last year. With any leftovers, I want to make Gundrun's HAP Kerchief. Then, summer tee knitting. We'll see!
Oh I can’t wait for the shawl KAL I bought some Wool Dreamers a year or so ago from TWT and Isabelle Kraemer has a shawl pattern just for it. Love the podcast. Happy knitting!
Watching this belatedly...the day after the bridge collapse in Baltimore. Thinking of Emma who lives there; of course, her segment was recorded long before that tragedy. But sending a hug from Western Canada, thinking of her, the city, the entire community at this tough time.
Thanks ladies for the great Shopcast. Kelsey and Emma’s segments are always full of information and inspiration. Mary Jeanne Packer’s trip sound so interesting. Thanks Kim for keeping our shoulders moving.
I always look forward to your shopcasts! And I am a HUGE fan of flexiflips- using them now with WYS Blue Jay vanilla toe up socks so I can use as much of yarn that I can!
I'm making the Gerste socks from 52 weeks of Socks using Rambler. I can't wait until my second sock is done. I love the fit and feel of the yarn on my foot.
So many good segments! You really got me interested in the Battenkill Textile Tours! I also knit the If You Go Out Socks in Rambler! Loved it! Thanks for a lovely episode.
Another very enjoyable episode. Kelsie’s segment was quite interesting and I just learned a new trick to do yarn overs for holes to tell me what size needle I used in my swatch…..genius!
Such a great episode! I love the interviews you have with the mills and designers. I agree with Kelsey, I also wear my wool socks year round, just switch to shorties in the summer.
What a great episode...yoga is great...was very interested to hear about hout Rambler came to be...as usual you ladies are amazing...such great inspiration
WITHOUT YOU AND YARN, LIFE WOULD BE BORING
I think Kelsey should be a teacher, as she breaks everything down so well. I still love the one where she talked about the different weights of wool. Love Maggie's sweater, the subtlety of contrast. Such rich autumn colors, they look like wee acorns. And esp. loved the Battenkill Fiber talk. Your interviews with wool people are always so rich with story and history. Really enjoyed the Armscote and Uradale interviews of the past. Thank you and Happy Easter if you celebrate it 🐇🌷🐣
It all sounds wonderful. I’m not sure I could pick just one tour. Thank you for using your own knowledge to back up the tour guide’s information. It all just confirms the authenticity of the guide’s knowledge. So many places I’d like to see now.
Love these podcasts so much. Like-minded woolly-woolers UNITE! P.S. I wish there was smell-o-vision for that Drover!!
Another wonderful shopcast. I especially enjoyed the interview with Mary Jeanne Packer. What an interesting person! Love the Yoga with Kim!
What a fantastic episode!!!! All segments were interesting and entertaining but the interview with Mary Jeanne was my favorite. I am not in a position to travel that much in this phase of my life and when i do, i "just" go home to Italy to visit my family....yet, one can dream and Mary Jeanne words and expertise kindled a big spark...I'd love to join her for every trip, but the Norwegian itinerary is simply mind-blowing. I watch Arne and Carlos and Eli of Skeindeer and I have been a fan of Oleana for a long time. Maybe one day!
Those Norwegian mittens that Emma is finishing! Swoon! So gorgeous! And I want to make that sea glass tee as well. What a great use of scraps. This shopcast was super inspriring!
I'm glad you like them! I love knitting colorwork mittens. Thanks so much for tuning in!
Another inspiring shopcast. I had to laugh at Maggie’s remark on suddenly noticing that she was supposed to have changed needles. I have done that too! The lamb is so cute. Especially nice with the mohair added. And I agree with Emma on reaching a point when all the WIPs need to be finished.
I learn so much watching your podcasts! It’s full of beautiful yarn and patterns… love seeing all your projects and suggestions!
I really love seeing Kelsey’s segments. She has a real natural style. She talks about subjects that I didn’t know I didn’t know about😁
I agree! I always learn so much from Kelsey 🙂
I also love Kelsey! She always shares such awesome info and tips.
Lovely shopcast ladies! Now I want to travel to
Norway! What a great interview! Maggie your lambie is so sweet and I can’t wait to see her with her new dress. I almost never get to watch these episodes on time but when I do, I so enjoy knitting along with you. Thank you !

Those adorable toy animals are precious & noted for future newborns.
Always enjoy your shop casts. Maggie you and those cute little toys. I may have to get that book to see how I can text my patience. 🤣. Emma gave me ideas for my tons of Shetland wool scraps for sure. I get her idea of clearing up wips before diving into a major project but hey it never happens for me 🤣. Again great Shop Cast enjoy you both and shopping at the Wooly Thistle always
I hope you cast on the most fun scrappy projects!!

Yes to liking the heel, I love knitting heel flap/turn/gusset socks. Getting to the heel flap is just so satisfying.❤
Love your podcasts! and products! you have inspired me to "try" to knit a sock a month and that Daughters of a Shepard yarn (along with the John Arbor) was in my shopping cart before your podcast ended! can't wait to knit with them.
Congratulations on another great shopcast! Absolutely on fire and all of your contributors were on song too. I loved your interview with Battenkill Fiber Mill. ❤❤

Thanks for a great shop cast as always! You always inspire me to keep making and expand my skillset! You’re a real gem in the world of knitting :) can’t wait for the shawl KAL to kick off and see what all of the other makers will be creating.
Battenkill tours! Just signed up for the email list, hoping to travel with them in 2026!
New yarn, new colors are beautiful 🎉
I just love all the socks the 2 of you are knitting ❤. So inspiring. 😊
Great episode. A little bit of everything. Makes me want to travel. Love Kim’s yoga.
Oh my, I’m heading over to the travel website! What an interesting person and interview, I love the ecological mindset she has in planning trips.
I am new to your Shopcast, which I am really, really enjoying and so informative. Your enthusiasm for sock knitting is catching and I am just starting to cast on my first pair of socks and maybe a sweater next when I see you lovely garments you wear on the Shopcast. Thank you to you both.

Another great Shopcast! Lots of temptation on both the yarn and travel fronts!
OH my goodness! Maggie I am 1/3 of my way through the humulous sweater you are wearing and almost in the same colors. Brown and orange. Love it! ❤️
Wow, wow, and wow! Corinne your wrap is gorgeous -- and such a beautiful color for you!
What a great episode. The woolly thistle should do a Scotland trip. I bet it would sell out in record time. Meet up with Rachel ….that would be a blast.

Great shopcast! Love Kelsey’s segment. Thanks for the tip on Vandre too.
I can’t wait to get your pattern for your arm warmers! They are so happy and I’m all about happy colours!!! 😀🧶
Perfect duck! ❤

I learn something new every time I watch ❤ Thanks!!
So funny, I'm working on Forrest the Bison while watching the podcast. Aggie is adorable. Love learning so much about different wools
Those Battenkill tours! Wow, I need to save my pennies. I agree with Kelsey: the Saona is the softest wool/cotton blend yarn I've ever knit with!
Always love your episodes…the interview with the spinner of Rambler was absolutely fascinating and educational!
Thank you. It was a lot of fun to share how we work to develop yarns to meet our customers needs.
Great episode!! The knitting break yoga is something we should all be doing regularly
Love your shop, love the wooly wool yarn, and I make lovely wooly items with the yarn! I sure do wish you did these shop casts once a week because I love to watch you guys. I’d love to lay in a bath tub full of wooly yarn, don’t you think that would be fun?
The very best episode ever. MJ is a gem, isn’t she!
Yes she is! Thanks for watching!
Again, thank you so much for another interesting and fun podcast. I love all the yarns you show, and I hope to place an order in a few months. I can’t wait.
The interview was fabulous! What a great wool ambassador in addition to TWT!
So glad you enjoyed the interview! Thank you for watching!
I love the book bundles, I look forward to more and more. (Love that Ann Cleeves series). Knitting and reading -- my two favorite things. Thank you for the Hap explanation,
Maggie, the Snowdonia yarn looks luscious. Thanks for another great episode.
Yarn brings joy. ❤
Another WOW episode! Thanks so much!
Excited peace fleece is back! Thanks.
Woolly wool fan here! Loving this podcast! 💕
Ok, I need to save my pennies so I can join one of Mary Jane’s tours. Sounds like soooooo much fun!
What a jam packed episode! I learned so much and really want to learn more about knitting and travel! Thank you so much, keep it up!
Looking good ladies and as always, so inspirational. Keep up the yarny good work!!🧶🧶🧶
I am so inspired by Corinne's arm warmers. Pondering about what mine will look like. Thank you.
Wow! Just wow!! Wonderfilled episode. Thank you so much!
Another great shopcast! Thank you!
I learn so much about wool from The Woolly Thistle ❤.
Another awesome show. I don’t know which segment was my favorite but I LOVE to hear about spinning
Had a great time completing the colorwork KAL. Like Corrine, I think I will use the Shawl KAL as an opportunity to revisit (aka finish) my Montbretia Hap. Thank you for the interview with Battenkill Fibers. I had an opportuity to see their work at Maryland Sheep and Wool last year and, of course, to purchase some great wool. You are lucky to have them as partners in the production of Rambler. ❤😊
Wonderful shopcast!! Corrine, I think you should plan to celebrate The Woolly Thistle's 10th anniversary taking some of the tours mentioned. You have a superb staff to cover the bases and YOU'VE EARNED IT!!!
I loved the mention of knitting as the shorthand for friendship....so, so true.
Can't wait for the Shawl Along. I'll be finishing my HAP I started last year. With any leftovers, I want to make Gundrun's HAP Kerchief. Then, summer tee knitting. We'll see!
Love the podcast! I am so excited to see Peace Fleece!
Oh I can’t wait for the shawl KAL I bought some Wool Dreamers a year or so ago from TWT and Isabelle Kraemer has a shawl pattern just for it. Love the podcast. Happy knitting!
Watching this belatedly...the day after the bridge collapse in Baltimore. Thinking of Emma who lives there; of course, her segment was recorded long before that tragedy. But sending a hug from Western Canada, thinking of her, the city, the entire community at this tough time.
Thank you for your kind words. Yes, a terrible tragedy. We'll be sure that Emma @barnabyknits sees your kind comment.
Thanks ladies for the great Shopcast. Kelsey and Emma’s segments are always full of information and inspiration. Mary Jeanne Packer’s trip sound so interesting. Thanks Kim for keeping our shoulders moving.
I always look forward to your shopcasts! And I am a HUGE fan of flexiflips- using them now with WYS Blue Jay vanilla toe up socks so I can use as much of yarn that I can!
So much inspiration! Thanks ladies.
Haha yes, I’m with Kelsey. I should really start knitting summer knits during cold weather, but knitting winter sweaters in July is tricky!
Always getting so many ideas with all of you, thank you.
Heading over to Battenkill Tours website. Every single trip sounded amazing! I hope to go on one someday!
I'm making the Gerste socks from 52 weeks of Socks using Rambler. I can't wait until my second sock is done. I love the fit and feel of the yarn on my foot.
So many good segments! You really got me interested in the Battenkill Textile Tours! I also knit the If You Go Out Socks in Rambler! Loved it! Thanks for a lovely episode.
Thanks for your interest in our tours! Hope you will come on one of trips soon.
Another very enjoyable episode. Kelsie’s segment was quite interesting and I just learned a new trick to do yarn overs for holes to tell me what size needle I used in my swatch…..genius!
We're so glad you enjoyed the episode and Kelsey's segment. She always has such great info!
Such a great episode! I love the interviews you have with the mills and designers. I agree with Kelsey, I also wear my wool socks year round, just switch to shorties in the summer.
What a great episode...yoga is great...was very interested to hear about hout Rambler came to be...as usual you ladies are amazing...such great inspiration
Another great episode I enjoy watching.
