We travel to Stranraer by the early morning Stena HSS and proceed south through the Yorkshire Dales to Leeds, and our base for the next three nights in the town centre.

Over 350 stand-holders compete for your attention today, showing the greatest range of specialist products available at any show in the United Kingdom or Ireland. There are over 100 workshops to fire the imagination of both the experienced and the beginner, and there are ample opportunities to learn new techniques, with guidance from some of the foremost teachers in the country.

After the show we return to Leeds where a buffet dinner awaits us at the Crowne Plaza.

Today you have a few options to choose from. You may wish to return to the Harrogate to enjoy a day in this charming town or take in another day at the Knitting and Stitching Show (admission not included). Alternatively you can visit York City where the St. Nicholas Eve Fayre is in full swing. You may simply choose to stay in Leeds for some serious shopping - the choice is yours.

Dinner is again provided in the hotel this evening upon your return.

After a leisurely breakfast we commence our homeward journey with a drive through the Dales, by a different route from our outward trip. We later join the M6 and drive directly to Stranraer where we catch the evening HSS, arriving back in Belfast around 10.00pm.
