Thank you Amanda and Peggy... and Liz, and Leah, and all of my test knitters. My goodness, watching you both has me in tears. Your Millcasts are so good and you just speak right into the camera and it feels like you're talking directly to me at times, and I am so grateful for your care and support these past few months. Thank you for the late night texts and thank you for accommodating the random visits to the mill. Thank you for hosting this Knit-Along and I look forward to seeing what everyone does! I'll be following along on your Ravelry Group as much as possible and have a couple more videos to add to my tiny library of tutorials. All the best ~ Ona

Awww...thanks!
I had such a great time at the open house- it was so enjoyable to go on the mill tour with Leah, and I’m so grateful with the help with choosing the right yarn for my buttons. I also have to say it was a great environment you create, I met so many other makers and it was nice to make those connections too!! So nice to meet Ona too- she’s such an inspiration!! Love your sweater Peggy!! Also the boob sweat struggle is real. ❤ Hope to be able to join the virtual knit night!!

Awesome!
There is a ton of polo in New England! That orange Lindal is gorgeous! I have a gift certificate to JFM…me thinks I need to knit one of these cardigans!!! This designer and these mill owners are an impressive team. I’m getting choked up thinking about the journey that I’ve been on with Junction Fiber Millcast. I found this channel the beginning of my knitting journey. It has been a steep learning curve, being legally blind, but I wouldn’t change it.💗💗💗

OMG! Ok....I totally agree!!! "Sweater for the ages!" Love the Lindal sweater. And yes, it does look like epaulettes on the shoulders! WOW!!!!! Just amazing! Thank you for another wonderful, genuinely positive millcast! Sending cool thoughts to you - it is HOT in MI too. (but thankfully not as bad as out west). People in the west are frying. ♨

Thanks for your podcast. Two things: I’m taking part in the KAL. When I bought the 32 page pattern, my first impression was OMGoodness. Even as an experienced knitter, I was overwhelmed. However, step by step there’s no reason I can’t do this. And, thank you for the sample of the Pine and Needles Shawl. It will make up beautifully with my April Mill Box!

I promise - it is not as complicated as it seems - not all directions are for every size - you can do it!!
I loved your finished cabled cardigan, Peggy! You will find the right buttons.

Oh thank you!
The little dress is absolutely beautiful. I have no one to make it for. 😢 May still get it any way. Gorgeous!
You two are knocking it out of the park, congratulations! If I lived by I'd definitely be dropping to say hi.

Hey Amanda! Hey Peggy! I enjoy today’s cast, especially the parade of Lindahl’s. In fact, I put you on pause partway through to go buy my sweater bundle. I’ll be swatching with the little bit of farm fresh from my stash while I wait for the mailman.

I love purple, with orange?? Blue w yellow/orange??? A deep Red w …??.. Thank you Ona for this stunning pattern! (again, can’t find enough words) You’re a Treasure!

That cable cardi sweater, Peggy!! 😃 Just gorgeous! 🤸🏼♂️ And love the shawl too! Love watching you two. Stay cool and be glad you aren’t in So. Oregon where we have had triple digits daily for a week. 🥵 At least our Coast is about 2.5 hrs drive but, still a drive.

It really is! We are all excited about it!
Another great Millcast, ladies! Loved seeing all the beautiful Lindal sweaters but having a hard time deciding on colors. What color of Making Tracks is on the mannequin behind you? I have 7 colors of Making Tracks I bought to make A Nightshift shawl at your September 2023 Open House, but am now leaning toward a Lindal Cardigan. I’ll have to book a Zoom shopping appointment to try and pick up a second skein of whatever color I decide on. Try and stay cool! It’s hotter here in Dallas but we’ve all got AC unlike most Vermonters.

Peggy, you left us hangin😜. What’s the title of the book? It sounds interesting!
Hi all, I love the Lindal cardigan and started it last night. Got the button band done and am starting on the bottom ribbing and sweater and am confused already. Is the KAL only on instagram? I’m not on it, so is there someplace else to get help?
