Episode 76 - EAYF 2024

[@nokesbob2256]

This is my kind of yarn festival. Lots of room. Lots of yarn. Food. Prizes. Good cheer. The yarn colors are beautiful. You always give such a great overview of everything.

[@sallycooke6498]

Lovely to see the show. So many temptations. You did well not to go crazy with all the yarns. Love the new Folk yarn. 😊

[@nicolelafontaine1720]

[@heathertucker7056]

Lieber Martyn, danke für das tolle Video! Es hat mir viel Spaß gemacht, deinen Besuch der EAYF anzuschauen und dadurch neue Wollhändler und deren schöne Wolle kennenzulernen. Du hast das ganz wunderbar gefilmt. Liebe Grüße

Great to relive the festival again watching this Martyn! It was so lovely to meet you :) x

[@ANorfolkKnitter]

EAYF was wonderful and it was lovely to meet you, I joined the podcasters on Sat with my stripy sock. I am now in love with the pink fade, would love to use it in the shawl 😁

[@lynseyh101]

Thank you for sharing the footage from the show it looks like a fantastic show, would love to get there at some point. Loving the honeycomb socks the fade colours are lovely 😍

[@TheHouseOfLangford]

Was fab chatting with you Martyn and joining the podcasters meet up too. Don't think I made it to either of them last year for some reason... You got soooo much footage from the show! I've already put next years in my calendar so that I can try and make sure any new job I get, honors the date for me as I'll be a bit more than 2hours away next year and will need a day for travelling... And OMG yes to a doll-along! I got my hands on a Frida kit and am itching to make it but I think I've already packed it with my yarn ready for moving so it may have to wait till the summer... Some lovely purchases and your niece and nephew are going to look awesome in their new jumpers too.

[@debbiewigen805]

Thanks Martyn for the lovely episode! So jealous! If it was 1/2 as much fun as it looked like I’m sure you had a wonderful time! Good luck with band! And when you’ve completed the “babies” and your jumpers we do expect some modeling (just giving you notice).

[@helenrussell294]

Thanks for sharing Martin; it looks like a great show.

[@ASpringSnowflakeSophie]

So lovely to see you and catch up!

[@anneclarkson8779]

Thanks Martyn, so sad I couldn't better but am planning for next year. I love the 3 needle sock tip too!

[@Liz.Green789]

That was a great festival. Thank you for taking us with you.

[@fabulousjaxx]

Loved this podcast it was like being there I would love to go next year You are bar far my favourite yarn podcaster xxxx

[@phoener]

I love the music you use. The piano is so Bruce Hornsby that I just had to look up the music! Here in the Philadelphia area, we are having a Yarn Crawl of 16 shops over 4 days. I made it to 6 yesterday, with 4 more planned for today, 3 Saturday and 3 Sunday. It’s so much fun and I kept seeing the same people. It’s like a festival, but with gasoline (petrol).

[@sueholubeshen9960]

Happy belated birthday Martyn...love gemmas new fad and thank you all for the amazing show❤

[@pattigolden1]

Loved the booth with clothing... they DEFINITELY need one that says "bi-stitchual". 😂 I truly wish they had things like this where I live. (Central California). But then again, I'd probably spend WAY too much!! Some of those color ways were to dye for!! 😉

[@CraftingwithTracy]

Thank you for taking me around the EAYF I’ve not been there but want to visit it in the future

[@suzettegaybba-vanzyl6484]

[@stevenr3162]

Great to have a little chat with you Martyn. Loved the sock pattern and can't wait to see them finished. Loved the show and looking forward to the next one! Wonderful to see it all again in your video thankyou

[@GroVaage]

Thank you for showing us that could not come to the festival

[@racingzz]

Saw you at the charity night, but too shy to say hello. Wonderful weekend.

[@deloresjackson437]

Thank you for taking us along to the show. There were so many wonderful venders. In addition to The Little Grey Girl, I saw another favorite, Emma from Eldenwood Craft. Have a great week with lots of rest along the way, and I will look forward to next week’s episode. Cheers!

[@thizizliz]

So much fun - and all the pretty yarns as well as lovely friends. I hope you survive 3 weeks in a row of go go go!

[@lorrainewalker9426]

[@jeanandreas3446]

Thanks for taking us along……..got the creative juices flowing. 😊

[@SusanDuffield-t1y]

EAYF was wonderful to see. Thankyou Martyn.

[@SAP64]

The yarn you showed us is absolutely beautiful. I wanted something from every vender.

[@SofiaSanchez-io5xy]

If you had to choose one yarn festival in the UK to go to, which one would you choose and why? I live in the US and would love to go to a show in the UK while on vacation. Thanks for taking us along to this one!

[@barbarapregger8526]

Thanks for taking us with you Martyn. Seems like you all had a great time. 😊

[@WendyHAROLD-h6n]

Thanks

[@bgummeson]

I’ve never seen a cross-stitched QR code before until I saw it in your friend Kitey’s booth - it worked!!!

[@juliemeago3961]

Hi Martyn Lovely podcast. Maybe one day I'll get to see the show in person. I adore the yarn you bought for the niece and nephew jumpers. Watching the EAY Show is becoming a regular post to really look forward to. Xxx Aussie Jules

[@janedaniel7288]

Hi Martyn, glad that you had a great weekend. We went to see Peter Kay in Manchester. So, so funny. Christmas present from one of our sons and his family. Sadly lost my glasses so apologise for any spelling mistakes. The screen is ablur! Love the new yarn. I interested to see how it works up. Also seen the three dpn's on other podcasts, but can't find a tutorial. If you could do a quick exploration on camera would be brilliant. Make sure you make some time for Martyn during your busy weeks a head. Take care xxJane 🐑🌼

[@annaharvey8134]

I've just seen myself on your footage!!! 😂😂

[@alisonrussell5777]

I also say tea but mean coffee. I always thought I did it because everyone else in the house drinks tea and I'm the only one that drinks coffee.

[@emmafanthom4293]

I’m up for the doll-along I tripped up on IWD Amelia, Beatrix and Marie landed on top of me - which would you say is the easiest I am a knitter who crochets…

[@FireshineandShadow]

I did spot you at the show on Saturday, but I had to run off to a class I had booked so I couldn't say hi. And then I never saw you again! Maybe next year 😅
