High Fiber: Fiber Fun With Altitude!

Profile Information

Location: Park City, Utah

About Me:: Knits, quilts, spins, weaves, hikes and snowshoes with poodles Rocky and Sunny. Learned to knit in 1950! Addicted to socks, and participated in Sock Wars III as "Sox Pox." Started spinning in December 2008 and participated in 5)3 Ravelympics in 2010 and Tour de Fleece in 2010 and 2011. Went to Sock Summit in 2011. Now I'm weaving and have a floor loom! This is my favorite website!

We had Vintage Stitchers at my house on Thursday. Barbara finished sewing the binding on this quilt while she was here.

Our daffodils bloomed just in time for Mother's Day!

The hummingbirds are back, too. The hiking trails are almost clear of snow. The mud is starting to dry on the trails, so we decided to take a hike in Toll Canyon, near our home, on Wednesday. It looked like a nice day when we started out, but it…
