I think the panels are voted on (have to check to make sure) so we should definitely see about creating some interest. You're right, there are too many of us who participate in the community to ignore! I would be happy to help if you need it for the panel proposal next year.

I felt cheated, as did others I am sure, perhaps some of the others there who were also knitting. I'm the knitter in your photo. It's the community, stupid. That's what kept running through my mind. A friend and I are going to submit a panel proposal for next year and we're going to do it right, if they let us. There are simply too many of us to ignore. It was really nice to find your blog. Geez, the universe keeps expanding. I must agree with you about the Craft Panel, I was there. I felt cheated, as did others I am sure, perhaps some of the others there who were also knitting.

All I can say is - at least there was a craft panel. But I should be able to say much more than that. #3 is the dream.

I appreaciate your analysis of the panel. I share your frustration. I’m all for #3! :)
