Vancouver’s first Maker Faire is happening June 25-26^th, 2011 and I’ll be there representing the Pacific Americas Branch of the International Knot Tyers Guild. I’ll have a variety of make-and-take projects and will give the occasional rope making demo (participatory!) using (repurposing) plastic grocery bags (in the spirit of the event). To see what’s what, I went to the Bay Area Maker Faire, plus I’ve been to an organizational meeting for the Vancouver version, so trust me when I say that it will be a blast. Everything from quilters to giant robots with some bacon for seasoning…
