ALPACA: THE MODERN DAY GOLDEN FLEECE Kristine Kelly 2017-10-30 | This week's video is all about alpaca! After I show a quick FO, we go right into the classroom to find out about alpaca. Then I take you on a field trip to my friend Kathy's alpaca farm called Heartland "Criations." Watch the show to see where that name comes from. Back in the classroom, I talk about alpaca fiber and yarn and show some inspiring projects that you can make with alpaca yarn.NOTE RE SOUND ISSUES: You'll hear some wind noise on our field trip to the farm. Also, I tried to equalize the sound between the "studio" and "field trip" segments as much as possible, but there may be some variation, depending on your playback device. I did my best, but, alas, my Ph.D. is not in videography or audiography. ♥LINKS TO PRODUCTS SHOWN:Cascade Cash Vero yarn: Discontinued (sorry!)Angel Hat (pattern by Kay Jones): goo.gl/FDJaNbHeartland "Criations" Facebook Page: goo.gl/W2bjv4Heartland "Criations" Web Site: goo.gl/1jTWTMHeartland "Criations" FARM STORE: goo.gl/4cs1fQPlymouth Yarn Baby Alpaca DK: goo.gl/PVXNHUCascade Indulgence yarn: Discontinued (sorry!)Halo yarn: goo.gl/q3yLRtPlymouth Baby Alpaca Brush yarn: goo.gl/uhVAYQPaca Peds sock yarn: goo.gl/Ev6QNMCONNECT WITH ME:✔ I N S T A G R A M✔ R A V E L R Y✔ T W I T T E R✔ P E R I S C O P E@halcyarn✔ E M A I Lhalcyarn@gmail.com✔ WRITE TO MEKristine KellyP.O.
