2014 Yarn Hop

I wanted to alert my fellow Minnesota knitters to the 2014 Yarn Hop.  This year, it will be from April 10 - 13.  Here is a link to the website with a list of the participating shops, rules for the drawing and dates and times the shops are open.  minnesotayarnshophop.com

Be sure to check out the blog on the Yarn Shop Hop website.  The stores are giving sneak peeks to their yarns and patterns featured in the hop.  I visited over half of the yarn shops in the hop last year and it was really fun to collect all of the free patterns and see the yarn designed especially for each shop.  Each shop has to come up with a pattern and a specialty yarn that uses the pattern.  I can't wait to see what they come up with this year!
