Sock Summit 2011 returns to Portland this weekend with tons of classes, events, and even a sock history museum (“a real-live exhibit of historically important and accurate sock replicas from the oldest pattern we can find, right up to the current time, all knit by people like you.”).
I went in 2009 and it was epic – there are a million vendors selling interesting yarn and knitting books and tools, and the museum is pretty cool too! Highly recommended, and not just for the excellent Star Wars subtitle…
