This weekend, November 8-11, 2018, I'll be heading to the Twin Cities for a wonderful weekend of yarn & fiber folk! There are so many events going on throughout the weekend that I thought I'd give you guys a quick run-down of the events that I'm most excited about attending. (PS: most of them are free so you'll have more yarn money!)
Let me know if you'll be there as well, I'd love to meet up with you somewhere!
StevenBe's VK Live Opening Night Party Thursday starting at 4-8 PM at StevenBe
Thursday, November 8th, StevenBe is hosting an amazing Opening Night Party for VK Live & if it's anything like the last VK party I attended, it's not one to be missed. There will be tons of designers, Lavender Lune Yarn Co, & of course Steven himself will be hosting the festivities & making everything sparkly & fun!
Knit Night with Three Irish Girls Thursday 7-9 PM at John Fluevog Minneapolis
Erin & Kelly from Three Irish Girls Yarn have partnered with John Fluevog Minneapolis for a beautifully colorful knit night at Fluevog's on November 8th from 7-9 pm. My designer buddy, Josh Ryks-Robinsky, will be releasing a brand new pattern & there will be a limited addition colorway available as well!
