Each year the Minnesota Knitters’ Guild hosts a weekend-long event in the Twin Cities metro area called Yarnover. Prestigious local and national instructors teach a variety of courses, fiber vendors fill the Yarnover Marketplace, and knitters come together from all over for a weekend of fun. 

One of the benefits of belonging to the Minnesota Knitters' Guild is early registration for Yarnover classes! For the most up-to-date information on Yarnover 2022, join the Guild for email updates. 

You can also get updates through our Ravelry group and Facebook page
