Where in the world have I been today?
Yup. I've been to Yarndale :)
I saw so-oo many friends there, both bloggy and normal. It was wonderful catching up with them.
There were sheep of all shapes and sizes.....
There was even a cow or two.
Mandalas aplenty .......
........................Loads and loads of bunting
The trees were alive with the sound of bees and balls of yarn.
There was a lovely brass band on the lawn and while we were listening I suddenly saw a hand waving madly from the middle of the band and I squinted at the person and saw some one else I knew! Brilliant :)
Was it as good as last year? Well. although I did enjoy it, as did the three teenagers who came with me, I have to say the jury is still out.
Oh - I wish I'd gone again. I kept thinking all weekend, that I wish I were at Yarndale. But I've had a lovely crafty day, and enjoyed the sunshine at home.
ReplyDeleteDid you buy much? x
Glorious,glorious snapshots Hawthorn.....everything looks so interesting and colour and yarn everywhere. Love the giant sheep!!! The Mandalas look wonderful! I found via another blogger´s photograph that my Mandala was placed on a table by the list of names of all the Mandala entries the same as my bunting last year. I must somehow get there next year!!!! Lucky ,lucky you!!!

I'm glad you had a good time, I was aiming to attend this year but work commitments meant otherwise. There is always next year, I hope.
ReplyDeleteYes, I was there too! We had a great time; was it as good as last year??? Yes, but in a different way. Glad you made it there.
ReplyDeleteWe travelled up to skipton for the weekend so we were there too and were so pleased we made the journey. We had a great time, we couldn't believe how many stands were there and couldn't resist buying lots of wool.
ReplyDeleteHoping to make it again next year.
