Went to wonderwool for both days ,also won a prize for my hat,weekend was a birthday treat from my husband,and money to spend from my daughters.
Love the jumper project idea!
It was my 2nd year as a vendor, after many years as a customer. I had a great weekend, and so glad to have some of my Welsh wool heading off overseas as well as all over the UK.
Thank you so much for letting us know you are doing good.
Cannot wait to see the sweater.
For the record, you look as if you are slimmer! (Meant well) sorry, Truely meant as you are doing impressive.😊
Love your projects!

Very Happy that you're back and well!
Went to Wonderwool for the first time on Sunday so missed you, however I did see James Makes Things in Bellica Yarns. Love that colour way for the cowl! Despite being busy it’s nice to give yourself a little break, glad to see you this week and looking forward to your next video
I went to Wonderwool for the first time and I thought it was wonderful! I also attended a wool school which I greatly enjoyed. Everything about the show was brilliant from the location in the beautiful part of wales, to the vendors and organizers, stewards and food/drink vendors- everything was so well organized. I was able to attend because we were on holiday to coincide this year as we live miles away, but I enjoyed it so much! Sorry I missed you though! 🤦♀️ Love the Frizzle chicken!
I love your show tours. This one had such a lovely broad range for anyone who likes all the fiber stuff. If I don't watch out, I will become a spinner. Fiber options are so amazing. Thanks for taking us along. I really look forward to seeing what your friends come up with for your special project. They'll do you right. Or totally make it fun. That's really great. I missed you but knew you've been busy. See you next time.
Good to see you and what you are working on and planning. Love the idea of your 3 friends dyeing the yarn. I went to Wonderwool on Sunday and spent far too much 😅 and despite never tried them I purchased one of the Toft special offer kits, so thank you, Martyn, for steering me down another crafting rabbit hole 😂😂 I am loving making my first animal, there were a few swear words to start with but all ok now 😁
I love this dyer's challenge and I can't wait to see the results. Good to see you.
Hi Martyn, love the plain wool dyed project. Can't wait for updates.
You know Mark's jumper has to be finished first! 😂
I had a lovely surprise last week. My husband and children arranged for us to go to Norway on a cruise for a week! I can't tell you how excited I was. Norway is a country I have wanted to experience. I was amazing and I even had some money for a little yarn shop in Stravengar.
I can't tell you how clean it was. Even the air was clean. the people where all lovely and helpful. Oh and we had snow!! Lots of snow!! A week I will never forget.
Lots of memories made.
Keep going with the fitness, it's paying off and I bet you feel so much better for it.
Have a fabulous week. xxJane 🐑🌼
You know it will all get done.. someday😂
Looks like Wonderwool needs me to go see it!! Loved seeing the stalls.
What an excellent idea to have your dyer friends participate with each other to contribute to your jumper project.
Hi lovely, went to Wonderwool on Saturday, did the introduction to spinning workshop - which was great - and generally had a great day
Went to Wonderwool on Saturday and saw you. What a great festival! May have bought a few things.
Hi Martyn. I went on the Sunday. I was told it was bitterly cold and very busy on Saturday but it didn't look it on your videos. I agree you could definitely spend 2 days there as there's just so much to see.
Thanks Martyn , really pleased to see you , I don’t know how you could not buy everything in that show , I think I would have brought that Baltic mitt kit , stay hello to mark , and I think you’ve lost weight again , any way will be a surprise to see what them dyers come up ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love the yarn dyeing experiment with friends. A unique sweater indeed
🤣 I love it !!! Creativity and mystery are at their peak.🥰 Have fun (all of you)🤗
We were at wonderwool fest on Saturday too, had a great day! Came home with much yarn and an injabulo basket
Wonderwool looked fun. I've just finished some crunkled socks and am doing some visible mending on my older hand-knitted socks.
Glad to see you, I was beginning to get a bit concerned as it has been a little while. Thank you for the show footage, it’s good of you to take the time to film it for us , I really appreciate it. ❤ ❤x
Thank you , Love your videos.
Oh.. so jealous you got to see all kinds of chesterwools bases.. i just order them blind. To dye myself;).
Love the your you 3 are going to dye me a sweater..
Now off to my knitting;).
Great video and I love your chicken 🐔 the idea for your jumper is a brilliant idea and I can't wait to see how it turns out. ❤
What fun! You were really enjoying the show and that was fun for all of us. I'm in a period of poor vision so am using my 'free' time to pull the winter weeds. We have half an acre (2023sq meters) and got a great deal of rain, so there's still a LOT to do and the benefit is that I'm getting a LOT of steps, tricep workouts and hamstrings. That feels great. Plus my veg garden appreciates the time too.
Great to see you back Martyn loved all the footage of the dyers can't wait to see what colours they come up with xx
I can't wait to see the dyed yarn and final sweater
Wouldn’t it be fun to do a zoom gathering of folks doing their spinning? It could be all types of spinning techniques and people could share what device they’re using as well as the type of fiber. Just an idea from someone who also is new to this specific craft. Been knitting a long time but just started spinning on a drop spindle about 2 months ago. Curious to know what you think of the idea.
It looks to me like that chunky hat pattern has a main colour, plus 4 contrast colours- black, gold, green and fuchsia. You need another colour. Unless I miscounted somehow. Looking forward to seeing your mystery yarn and sweater!! Love your kaleidoscope cowl!!
I was getting bit worried that you were sick (I have had 2 colleagues/former colleagues die in the last 2 weeks- one at age 54(!!!!), another required emergency spinal surgery and two came down with a really bad flu. And the mini-dachshund dog that I am the aunt to crossed the rainbow bridge at age 17.33 on April 10. It was a bad 2.5 weeks). If you hadn't posted sporadically on Insta & Threads, I would have worried more. Seeing your Frizzle Chicken reminded me that I need to buy the Emotional Support Chicken pattern as Lucy, the late mini-dachshund's mom and I both need one now.
Wow I loved the blue and gold bee shawl min 3:12, do you know where I could buy that pattern ? Thanks for sharing your show with us. So fun with the laughters with all the dyers. I hope Mark get his jumper before you start to knit your "Flax", so dyers can take their time ...
It's from Ellie at Tyddyn Bryn. She sells her patterns on Ravelry. 😁
@@GagaKnits Thank you very much, i'll go check this pattern and buy it !
I love your music when you go to yarn shows. Who is it by?
Hi Martyn😊
So glad to see you back Martyn! I love the idea of the yarn being dyed for your sweater…just brilliant! Sorry life has kept you so busy 😉but you did really well…that chicken is so cute and the cowl is lovely! Thanks for taking us along to Wonderwool! Looking forward to seeing what you’ve been up to next week.
