OMGoodness all the yarn so so beautiful and it was super fabulous to see some fellow Aussie yarns by Fiber Lily, Louie and Lola 🙋🏻♀️💞🧶
I am so excited to see the Drunk Yarn Home Dye kit. I've been contemplating trying to dye some yarn with my husband and having a kit with basically everything included is awesome!!!!! Here comes another level to knitting & knitting socks.🤭🤭🤭
Love to see a small business person succeed in this climate pls remember that not everyone uses all those other social media platform's love the casual sit down pod cast do what works

Thank you for saying that. I do not use Ravelry anymore so I didn’t join sock camp. I still knit along anyways though. 🙂

There is a # on Instagram to use that I draw prizes from as well. That’s been mentioned throughout camp. ♥️
Thank you so much Kay. So enjoyed today. The RoundMtn. Fibers is so so good. The integrity of that yarn is truly one of a kind. I love that yarn in my hands. Your colorways are just beautiful. Very happy for your new venture, that is just great what you intend for the space. It will be nice for you to have your space. You have worked so hard to grow this fabulous business. Your kindness and gentleness I love coming for in your episodes. Have a great weekend!
So many beautiful yarns! So many amazing yarn businesses! So generous! Wishing you all the best with your new shop! ❤️🧶
Thank you so much for showing off my hand dyed yarn and Drunk Yarn dye kits! I'm super intrigued about doing socks in DK. I love DK weight (it's delicate enough for my sensibilities but thick enough to knit up quickly - I'm impatient).
Ooo, that Drunk Yarn kit is so cool! That would be fun to have in your shop. I really like your share a pair with the mint green you are currently working on. Your Rainbow Connection pattern would look great in those two yarns! 😍
That Leap of Faith yarn matches your pink nails so nicely! Thank you for sharing all these amazing small businesses!
I love all the beautiful yarn you show!! I’m sure you are having a great time showing it too.😊
Kay....... I'm so over the moon for your new shop and all the exciting things that are taking place. Enjoy your weekend .
I love DK yarn sox! So much easier to get down here in 🇦🇺 very hard to get sock/fingering yarn 😕 looking forward to the pattern and best of luck with the shop! 🤩🥳
The Practical Magick yarn is delish! The jelly bean yarn, OMGosh! I cannot convey how happy I am for you to have your own shop/knitting nook. That, my Friend, is a dream come true, I shall live vicariously through you. 😊
Omg! They are coming out with some beautiful yarn. Love them all.
Who would have thought that in four years time, @thecrazysocklady would have her own store/office. When everything falls into place you can move mountains. So very proud and happy for you, Kay! Please share a 'behind the scenes' of your new shop/office/podcasting/shipping dept. space. 💜

I enjoyed the relaxed video today and seeing all the yarn was lovely! I am so pleased you have leased your office space. It will be so much better for you to separate home and work a bit more! You really deserve it after all your hard work to make a success of your business! X
This is the first time I watched your podcast. I really enjoyed watching!! Loved hearing and seeing all of your newly purchased yarns. Congratulations on your new space!! Take care.
Wonderful news about your space! Congratulations winner Robbie. Thanks for sharing all your makes and shop news. Have a blessed weekend everyone.
So happy that your space is a reality! I always enjoy your episodes and the amazing number of socks that you knit.
So happy for you! So exciting to have your own space for The Crazy Sock Lady.
Congratulations on the office space. Love the variety of yarns.
I love to see what you buy/receive! They’re all so pretty. It’s great that you’re supporting other small businesses as well. 💕
Lovely yarn as usual. So exciting about your shop, congratulations !
Congrats on taking the leap to setup your own shop and getting separate space to house it all. Love to hear that you'll carry indie yarn and help other small biz owners be noticed.
SO exciting that you now have your own office space! I have an office, and it's the best! It keeps me focused, and more organized! Yay for you!!
So exciting to hear your news about a work space and a website. Lovely seeing your socks and hear the stories surrounding them. Happy knitting!
Congratulations on your new office! Love all the yarn you get in the mail. I am finishing a pair of socks for my husband for sock camp. By the time it is over my goal is to have a pair to equal each week of camp. I am having fun knitting all the socks!
Congratulations on your new office space. I have been having so much fun with Summer Sock Camp. Thanks, Kay!
You have worked so hard to make it possible to have your own office. Congratulations and best wishes for continued success.
I’m so happy for you!!! You’ve worked so hard and deserve every minute.
So excited for you and all that is to come for CSLco!! The luscious yarn you showed is so amazing!!
Congrats Kay!! What an exciting step to find your office space and start your online store. So happy for you!
So many great yarns. I couldn't pick a a favorite.
So exciting! Office outside the home... Another step towards your brick& mortar yarn store. Congratulations. Thank you for sharing your progress as well as your wonderful knitting.
Love those gnome progress keepers and the Drunk Yarn kits! Congratulations on the new space--can't wait to see what you do with it!
Looking forward to the shop vlog. What pretty yarns you have! 😅 I really can't pick which would be my favourite, they are stunning. Love the gnome progress keepers. Take care and keep safe. xxJane
I was about to head to bed and then noticed you posted and am so happy that I watched straight away! I am looking forward to your DK sock pattern, I have had some DK merino nylon in my stash for about a year! How fun that you have a move in date for your new space and its so soon! Good luck getting the new space set up and I can't wait to see it! Also, Louie and Lola and Fiber Lily are some of my fave Australian yarn dyers too. We are very fortunate to have so many talented makers here!
I’m excited for you to have your new space! Love all the yarns today too!
Great idea for 1 stop shop for socks!
Congratulations on your new office space! Well deserved for all your hard work!
I just got Chelsea Luxe yarn also it’s very nice, but it’s 80/20. Just made my second socks with it. Just received my little notions tin from you. It’s so cool to have it all in one little tin. Thank the kids and your mother in law for putting it together for us. Good luck with the store you will be so busy now. Enjoy what love doing.
That share a pair wip is gorgeous!! Such a happy combo
So happy for your new office space and “one stop sock shop” idea! ❤️
So cool to see some Australian dyers pop up!
Wow! That campfire color is spot on!
Love all the beautiful dyed yarns!
Super exciting news about the new office space!! It's so exciting!! Looking forward to your vlog of the set up process! Such pretty yarn shown this episode!!
I'm SO exited for you having your own business space! I received my order from you this week and am thrilled with it all. I used the snips last night on a MKAL sock I finished-they're SO much better than the scissors I was "chewing" the yarn tail with. Sheesh! How generous of you to do a free DK sock pattern. I am test knitting one and I agree-they work up SO fast. Nice to know that 2 fingering yarns held double will sub for DK-I don't have DK sock weight yarn here. Have a great week-I know it's gonna be busy but it will be a GOOD busy! Can't wait to take your journey with you-just wish I lived closer so I could attend a knit group! Wishing you all the best, Kay.
So happy for you! I love your Etsy shop and have placed quite a few orders so I feel a part of all this and it's so exciting. So generous of you to design a DK weight sock pattern. I bought some DK weight yarn by mistake (thought it was fingering!) and now I get to make more of your designs!
So excited to see your shop grow! And loved all the yarn you picked up !!
What a wonderful adventure, I wish you every success for your new shop space. Love the beautiful yarns, and the lovely thank you socks you made your mother in law. Nothing is better than a homemade gift with the love knitted in. Stay safe love and hugs xx
Awesome news about your work space/shop! Sending blessings for a smooth transition and a great outcome. Some more beautiful eye candy yarns today!!
Congratulations on your shop space. I wish you were closer to me. The knit groups and classes are an awesome idea. Love Chelsea Luxe yarn I have ordered from her Coop Collection and its a surprise and they are wonderful. I love the way you promote other small businesses.
I’m really interested in the yarn dying kits you got, must look them up xx
Don’t apologize for the mail taking long! I love it! It allows me to go “oooo pretty!” And discover lots of new dyers. Good luck in the next few weeks as you move into your new space!
Wow, Busy woman! Keeping inching closer toward your ultimate goals! You will make it!
Congratulations on your shop. I am excited that you are supporting indie dyers.
I am so excited for you to get settled into your new space. I love that gorgeous Fiber Lily yarn!
Your enthusiasm is contagious!
Congrats on your new office space! 👏 Thank for continuing to inspire me! 🧦🐑💜🧶
great to hear you'll be showcasing some yarn dyers in your shop - that will be awesome !! Also fantastic to see the Australian indi dyers on here - Louie & Lola and Fiber & Lilly :)
Great to see Louie & Lola yarn on your podcast. I've been using them now for over a year and love their colourways. We're so fortunate here in Australia to have so many amazing indie dyers and fortunately I live in an area cold enough to wear plenty of knitted garments. Great to see you'll have a DK weight sock pattern soon. I'd just followed the 4ply one and adlibbed following small size but with 8ply and 3.00/3.25mm needles. Good luck with the bricks and mortar shop space. I'm also another who doesn't use social media so FB or Instagram just doesn't happen for me.
I am SO excited that you got your office space!! It's great to dream big!
So exciting that you’re getting your space!!! So happy for you! 😃
I’m so happy you and your growing business! And excited that we all get to tag along on this adventure with you!
I’m excited for all these new developments. Congratulations! I like the casual episode style.
I’m so happy for you, it has to be nice to have a special place for your business!! A lot of beautiful yarn and the socks are beautiful!!
I love dark or vivid colors!
What a timely episode for me! Just got some DK yarn (LYS sale on Madeline Tosh/$24 🤩 in purple/white) and wasn’t sure what size needle. I’ve used US2 but will wait for your pattern. Even found your Grandma’s “Splash of Yellow/Touch of Pink” pattern on eBay this week! Super excited for your office space. Wish I nearer to enjoy the fun of your knitting class. Now, I’m off to try to get some of that “Practical Magic”. What a “cast” (movie and CO ). 🤗
Congratulations on your shop! Excited on your DK pattern. Your socks are gorgeous 💕. I converted your original pattern and knit my husband socks with Berroco Ultra Wool superwash size 4 medium. He loves them. But I want to try different yarns for him. Great video as usual 💕💕💕
Congrats on the new space! Love the colors from the Practical Magic sets! Must stick to yarn diet, must stick to yarn diet, lol!
Congratulations with your new/own office/knitting space!! I'm so so excited for you! :)
Love the Leap of Faith yarn in English Garden colorway. I went to her site and I guess it's no longer available; couldn't find it, but colorway Bryce Canyon is gorgeous. Wonderful news about your new office space; I'm very happy for you! Great to see your dreams taking shape. All the best to you!
So exciting news! Congratulations Kay, you are an inspiration to us.
Congratulations, Kay! I am so excited for you!! Also, I am looking forward to trying your sock pattern for the DK weight yarn-I have my yarn and needles ready!
So excited to see you expand your business. Love your style and willingness to share!
That solar surprise mini set is GORGEOUS!
Thank you so much for the free DK sock pattern! I will be on the watch for it! Congrats on your new shop....I wish you much success! Follow your passion and good things happen!!!
Kay, I am so crazy happy for you and your new venture. So exciting.
It’s so exciting to see your business grow and to hear about your plans!
Loved seeing all your new yarn. The downside to seeing all your new yarn is it makes me want to buy more lol Congrats on your new space and the growth of CSL ❤️
Congratulations on your new shop. It is finally happening. 🎉🎈🎉
So much beautiful yarn!
Exciting stuff happening in Crazy Sock Lady Land!!
Thank you for the sock pattern! I’m anxious to make a pair. Your patterns are always fabulous!
Congrats on on the new space! With all you've been adding lately, it will definably be nice for you to have more room! Thanks for letting me come along virtually on the journey!!
Congratulation on you office space. I did one pair of sock. Found a friend is expecting in Dec. So I had to crochet a blanket for her. Then my daughter in law is due in Jan. So after next month I have to finish a quilt. I have the top made. Just to have to quilt and put the binding. Then I have other things I have plan on making. I want to try another pair of sock. I have so many things in my pot right now.
Congratulations on your new space. So excited for you and the community.
Love the relaxed mode, and your new space! And look forward to making DK socks! Maybe my next sock camp socks, might be a little faster for this slow poke lol!
Bewitched Pigments has a "Practical Magic" colorway too! It's inspired by the colors on the Practical Magic softcover and so gorgeous. I read the book and watched the movie for the first time knitting with it! So much fun.
The Leap of faith yarn is so tempting!!!!
Congratulations on your new space! It has been fun to watch your business grow lately.
Congrats on the office space. Look forward to your next steps, loving summer sock camp.
Practical magic is one of my all time favourite movies…..ever!
