The first ever Yarndale festival took place in September 2013 which proved to be a runaway success for both exhibitors and visitors alike. It was declared an outstanding success when 6,500 visitors flocked into Skipton. Held at Skipton Auction Mart, yarn lovers travelled from far and wide to attend this much anticipated festival.
This year the festival boasts an increased number of exhibitors as well as an enhanced programme of textile workshops and demonstrations. People travelled from all over the world for this year's Yarndale Festival.
