YARNDALE 2021 : A FESTIVAL OF YARN, CREATIVITY & COMMUNITY

After  a hiatus due to the pandemic last year, Yarndale returned to Skipton Auction Mart on 25th & 26th September and I was thrilled to be able to go along! As well as my mask and hand sanitizer I took my microphone and met so many truly lovely people. This episode is my experience of Yarndale 2021, which in a nutshell was wonderful, friendly, colourful and utterly uplifting. In it you will hear from yarn dyers, craftspeople and business owners who were exhibiting their wares along with Matt Farci from Crojo.Life and Alyson Chu from Moorit Magazine as well as friend of Making Stitches, Carole Rennison from Hooked by Design who is also one of the festival's organisers. I hope you enjoy listening to it as I enjoyed my Yarndale experience - it was a blast!Here are the people & businesses who feature in this episode - my thanks to everyone who spoke to me.Yarndale Festival Juey  from Juey Jumbo Craft ToolsMatt Farci from Crojo.LifeNiki from Allium ThreadsSarah Paul from Bigwigs AngoraKate from Kate's KlothsJenny & Ruth from  Ammonite YarnsMichelle Lewis from Woolly WumpkinsAlyson Chu from Moorit MagazineJudith from Buttoned UpCarole Rennison from Hooked by DesignFor full show notes for this episode, please visit the Making Stitches website.The music featured in this episode is Make You Smile by RGMusic from Melody Loops.You can support Making Stitches Podcast with running costs through Ko-fi.Making Stitches  Podcast is supported by the Making Stitches Shop.Making Stitches Podcast is presented, recorded and edited by Lindsay Weston.
