As a tartan designer and weaver, and the mom to 6 alpacas :), I'm glad you are having a WONDERFUL time! What a lovely week you're having.

Hi from Hawick! So glad you made it to the best town in the Borders for a visit 😉. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your adventures in our beautiful area x

You are a delight❣️I am enjoying your journey…thank you for sharing bright shining enthusiasm with us…🌺💜🌺

Andrea I. Have just stumbled across your channel by chance and have binge watched 4 episodes already and would spend all day watching them but unfortunately that pesky necessity work is calling and I have to go. I love yarns and fabrics and although I don't do much with them I can never walk past a fabric\yarn shop without admiring their contents! Love your joyous upbeat presence here on YT. Obviously I have subscribed and Look forward to hearing of your ideas impressions and experiences. Thanks for pisting.

"None of these colors really go together" Reminds me of George Sarratt (spelling?). Sunday in the park with George. His paintings full of dots.....amazing

Living vicariously through you. Your adventures are so fun. Oh too be young again. Loved hearing about your colors.. And those sweaters!!! The colors are awesome and, I too, love the little frog prince! I've tried weaving and quilting, but love knitting, so looking forward to seeing your finished projects.❤

Hi over there, lol waving at you all the way from Ontario Canada ;) You are such a joy to watch. I'm so enjoying watching your journey of learning and your adventures! Hugs from afar, you go girl ;) Donna

Hi Andrea, I’m finding your videos so exciting! Thank you for bringing us to this journey with you! ❤

I am so glad you brought the frog jumper. It was obviously waiting for you.

Hi Andrea, I guess I am what would be referred to as "advanced age", but I am just loving your videos! Love that a young person is so excited about knitting and weaving and all else. Your enthusiasm and spontaneity is so inspiring. By the way - I am live in South Africa. Enjoy your stay and the course!

That was a great week! Your Percy was wonderful. I am really enjoying your time in Scotland and look forward to the next report.

I was a re-entry adult student, older than my RA by a few years. There was no other dorm for students like me. I couldn’t live the way I wanted to because of the underage students all around me. I would have loved to be around other older students. You are lucky in more than one way.

I love seeing your adventures, looking forward to more Scotland content! Also that adorable frog sweater is such a deal!!

I love your upbeat, colourful and yarn yummy videos Andrea! And how cool you went to Hawick, a place I used to visit as a child. If you want to see more textile history museums I recommend the National Wool Museum here in West Wales. This area has a rich history in the wool processing and weaving industry. I think you'd love it. Ps love the mug and your wooly finds! 😊

All 3 of my children have been to Uni in England,your accommodation is better than any they have had, it’s so big!

Your explanations of the palets you made is so fun to listen to!

I'm living vicariously through you. This is something I would have loved to do. I'm 40 years older than you, so I'll pass. I was inspired and intrigued by your art book. I definitely want to invest into something similar. Thank you for sharing in so much detail.

Hi from Australia. I'm loving seeing all the different places you are visiting as I left Scotland when I was 7 to move to Australia. Enjoy your week.

your new room is great, especially that view. omg percy!! he is so sweet.

Loved this video start to finish. Gorgeous yarns and I'm so envious of all your shopping finds. The knitting is so cool. That tweedy neutral yarn w color dots confetti is soooooo pretty knitted up. Sweaters... hhhhhhhmmmmm... in lurve

Andrea, I just discovered your wonderful vlogs! I watched what you have done so far in Scotland and I am hooked!

wow fun videos you have been posting all looks so fun love the frog prince sweater most!

Love your Hallowe'en shawl! Enjoy your scottish adventures.

I’m new to your channel and just loving all your vlogs, they are always interesting and fun. Love watching you weave and the garments you make are just fabulous. So inspiring and talented !💕💕💕

You are precious and I love your Hawick purchases 😂

Yea! I was hoping to see a video of your adventures pop up! No disappointment at all OH WHAT A GREAT WINDOW VIEW!! ! Uhhhhh. That wasn’t a miracle that you found the exact swatch. Percy is adorable! What a sweet face. Ok those colors of the yarn and batts are SO New Orleans! I look forward to your final project with them.

Well how amazing is this? Cobalt blue is my favourite colour, I've been a knitter for about 14 years and I found out my ancestry is from the Scottish highlands and Islands. The Isle of Skye tartan is all my favourite colours. Yowza!

So thankful you are taking us along. so special.

I love your enthusiasm and positivity. Thank you.

Love your new dorm. Hope you have tons of friends to hang out with.

New (Scottish) subscriber here - you are an absolute delight! I hope you really enjoy the rest of your time here with us.

Fun, Andrea! It was great to tag along with you this week and share in your adventures. Certainly looking forward to more when you have the chance.

We loved seeing all your amazing colour combinations. So inspiring. Can't wait to see what comes of it.

Thank you for such a lovely 1st week video Looking forward to every video of your term in Scotland

I have a friend in Colorado that raises alpacas for their wool. I crocheted her a baby llama from the yarn of one of her mamas. To say thank you she gave me hanks and hanks of alpaca. I need to get busy and ball them up. Your video inspired me to get in gear and pull out my swift and ball winder. Your sweaters are lovely. Especially love the frog 🐸 prince. The cup is so cute. It was a steal!

Good on you. Love the sweaters! What a fabulous experience. Thanks for taking us along .

thank you for the lovely video! ❤

Love your videos. Enjoy your studies x

Loved your first week there! The frog sweater is wonderful -- I screenshot it and sent the pic to my daughter who loves fashion and frogs. Looking forward to seeing you wearing it. I hope you'll get more videos of the weaving room with all the looms and equipment but maybe this time in operation. As a weaver, it always makes me happy to see weaving going on. So if you do any weaving, be sure to film some of it so we can see you in full creative flower. And also show us how you spin on that oddly shaped spindle you bought at the yarn festival.

Welcome home! It looks like your usual happy enthusiasm is well-placed for your current situation. I can think of no one who would appreciate this experience more!

your totaly awesome thank you for sharing

love the videos-its HOW and ICK(like lick) lol

Percy! 😍

Where have you been? Looking forward to seeing more.

What a great week, I’m so jealous, so thanks for taking lots of video showing us around. When I went to University studying textile in any form just didn’t exist so even though I love most sorts of making with needles of some sort wether sewing, knitting, embroidery, X stitch, dyeing etc. I’ve had to figure it out on my own. Thankfully my grandmothers and 1 great grandmother started teaching me early so it’s stuck with me in one way or another all my life and has given me great joy. If I could have done things like you’re doing though I’d have been very intrigued and inspired. Thanks for sharing, how long do you get to stay there? 🙋🏼‍♀️

♥️

U poor thing… in ur last dorm I was honestly confused when u showed me ur window view because I knew exactly which dorm u were in (and that it was for first years …) I’m glad u could move tho!!❤

I just stumbled upon your channel, your year on another country sounds like great experience! Maybe you were talking about it, but what was your motivation for doing this? I can imagine it will expand the influences and knowledge for your training. Good luck ❤

Hey Girl 1st you are looking good. Scotland must agree with you. 2nd where is the photo of your cat????? It is so fine to grab a cut of tea and see the things you are up to.

How are you finding the weather in Scotland? Big change in the light from NYC! Hope you’re finding enough to do in your spare time and have been able to find some decent coffee.

I like your hair kind of curly and feathery, Andrea. You’ve had it much shorter in some vids.

Hi Andrea, your place is fantastic! That St.Nicolas picture you have is signed in Ukrainian, do you have a Ukrainian heritage? 🙂 I love love looooove your videos - thank you for sharing your life and creative journey!

Hello Andrea! I'm curious what your plans are for a career after your textile schooling. I am nowhere near as brave as you for pursuing your true dreams in school.

Just remember you have to pack all your stuff up to take home!

Andrea, I looked for the Hope and Confidence shawl pattern, and it doesn’t look anything like what you’re knitting-it has a buttonhole pattern throughout. Is it possible you’re knitting her Hitchhiker pattern??

Hey dude how many students are studying ma fashion and textiles at your campus as of now

all colors, if the same value, work together

looks like it says "pretty ugly pottery Wales".
