Hello, my name is Anne and I live on a vegetable farm in the finger lakes region of central New York. We have seven goats, some cows, and assorted, always changing number of chickens and three cats. Besides farming I spend most of my time processing and spinning wool, knitting, and weaving. I hope to share all of my adventures here. Thanks for visiting!

Hello my sweet friends!

I just wanted to quickly come on here and say that there will be no video this week. I know that my Europe/UK followers will understand as you have also been experiencing extreme heat. It has now also become extremely hot here, making it pretty much impossible to film. Let's treat this as a little summer vacation and hopefully I'll catch up with you next week.
Our next Forest Keys Livestream will be on Sunday July 12th (weather pending of course but it's supposed to be cooler by then) I hope to see you there!

xx Anne


Also small reminder if you're looking for more content or KAL updates there is lots over on Patreon. 🤎

If you want another look at the prizes they were shown in the livestream and I will add some to the instagram version of this post, I have also figured out how to add them here. 3 winners will also be selected to receive a Ravelry pattern of their choice.

Hello Hello!
Hope everyone has had a nice holiday time in the past week! 🤎 Our zoom will be at 3PM EST (convert to your time accordingly), Tuesday, December 30th. I will post the zoom link in the comments of THIS post on Tuesday morning, for security reasons I don't want to post the link sooner than that. If you want to be 100% sure that you get the link feel free to email me at caprinecottagefarm@gmail.com and I will send you the link directly. This whole process has shown me how helpful it would be to have an email list so that might be coming in the near future. Hoping you all are well and looking forward to seeing your projects.🤎

Hi everyone! No video this week but I’m working away on a cozy crafty holiday vlog for next week. I hope everyone’s Pelicas are coming along well. I’ve seen many of you are making great progress and loving to see it!! 😍 I’m almost done with the upper back portion of mine and almost done with my first ball of Brusca. Getting nervous about the next section eek 😬 Please enjoy Phini and I out on a walk looking matchy matchy in our safety gear. Hunting season started last weekend here so we’re just in time. Hope you are all well and staying cozy! 🤎

If none of these times work feel free to make suggestions in the comments (I probably won't want to stream very early or late fyi) Also if two answers get a large amount of votes I will choose in between. Thanks so much! Looking forward to chatting with you all!

Here’s a little post to update on some things as I know content continues to be really slow coming from me. I’ve been working away in the background but just haven’t had much time to film or edit an update. I’m still working on my Elevenses backpack, multiple knitting projects, and helping my best friend build her dream house (yurt in pic 4) I know I’m very behind on answering comments but just know that I read and appreciate each and every one of them. Soon I will answer I promise. 🤎🤎 Love to you all. Things have been feeling quite grim but luckily we have each other.
