Portland Knitters! I Want To Go to the Knit and Crochet Show.

So, I got this nifty postcard in the mail reminding me about the Knit and Crochet Show in Portland the weekend of May 15th through the 17th.

Now, I know that I live in the land of Stitches. And I know that it would be much cheaper for me to go to Stitches. And I remember when I went to the Knit and Crochet show when it was in Oakland and it wasn't nearly as glamorous as Stitches, but I'm hoping that the Portland show might be better.

Besides.... It's Portland! I've always wanted to go to Portland. There's some sort of hipster mystique that I'd like to explore... despite the fact that I, myself am not really a hipster. But then there's also the music scene! I'd totally see a show in Portland.

But alas, I don't think I can afford a flight and a hotel. Maybe I should find another knitter who might let me stay at their house. So, yeah, if you're a Portland knitter who wants to go to the Knit and Crochet Show and you wouldn't mind putting me up for a day or two, leave me a comment. I promise I'm laid back and easy-going and perhaps I'll bring some knitting goodies to sweeten the deal.
