Hello! I know it's taken me ages to publish this video, so watching a Christmas celebration in July might be a little bit odd 😅but I hope you enjoy this video nonetheless. I'm on my way to Convergence in Wichita, Kansas today. Will I be seeing any of you there? 🥹💕 I'm hoping to make a video about this week's event and post that ASAP, and then I'll (finally) get to sharing my last semester at FIT. Thank you so much for your patience! I hope you're having a lovely summer ❤

This is exactly the video content I needed to start my morning. I've missed seeing new videos but totally understand that life took priority. (Ps Christmas in July totally works 😆)

Oh Andrea! This is such a lovely video. Filled with more beauty, friends, scenery, and of course textiles. I was quite moved by this. What a wonderful experience for you. I have loved joining you in Scotland and I look forward to joining you with your next videos in New York.

I have loved following along with your Scottish adventures. I only learned recently the Unicorn is the national animal of Scotland. Will miss these videos but I'm sure you will be excited to get back home.

@thescottishyarnfestival 24 күн бұрын

Not only is the Unicorn the national animal of Scotland, it's often depicted tethered in chains.

Congratulations on an amazing semester! I have such a heart for Scotland, and it was lovely seeing it through your eyes. I learned so much by joining you on your adventures via this channel, and your beautiful outlook on the world and everything in it inspires me. AND, you're such a talented artist/maker/designer! (PS: State-side folks, The Wooly Thistle based in the US is a Scottish Yarn Festival stockist and has flat rate shipping for orders under $99 to anywhere US for just $4.95! I have no affiliation with them other than being a supporter of Scottish yarn.) Looking forward to your next series!

I would've loved to go to this textile school where you went in Scotland if I was 45 years younger. It's been fun following you.

Your videos are so much fun! I missed seeing you. Congratulations on your many accomplishments. I gasped when you said you taught yourself brioche knitting on your train ride! Your cowl is beautiful. And as a rughooker, I appreciated your yarn dyeing! That was a brilliant use of your leftover dyes. Safe trip. I hope you keep uploading content! It’s so worthwhile!❤

What a beautiful homage to the experiences and journey you have been on! I admit I might have gotten a little bit teary eyed seeing the photos of you returning home, everyone who has had a similar experience of being away for an extended time experiencing new things and learning, can understand the joy of returning to your loved ones. I can't wait to see your vlog from the convergence and your final semester in FIT. Give Frankie some treats on our behalf

This was such a fun video! And you've inspired me to start spinning again, starting with one of my drop spindles. I haven't done any spinning for a couple of years! Looking forward to your Convergence video (feel my envy?) and your last semester at FIT.
