Here is Yarn Fest 2024, a list of known wool and yarn events, shows, fairs and fesitvals throughout the UK. If there are changes to the events with new events or cancellations, every effort will be made to amend this page.
We attended Wonderwool Wales on 27-28 April this year and are currently booked for Yarndale in September. We are hoping to add one more event in 2024 but nothing booked yet!
Our hand dyed yarn is dyed in small batches from Welsh and UK yarn together with some specialty fibres. Each batch is hand dyed in our Dye Studio in Pembrokeshire, Wales, UK using ethically-sourced natural dye extracts. We dye all our own yarn and do not source dyed yarn or 'buy it in' from external suppliers
