Apparently I won a gift certificate last year with my Best In Show Spinning at the Arizona State Fair. I say apparently because I didn't know about it till late last year. The gift certificate never came with the ribbon I got. I finally got a chance to go up to Prescott to use it. It's about a 5 hour drive if we drove straight up. We didn't. We broke up the trip with a stop in Phoenix. I was worried that we wouldn't be able to go because they are still fighting the Goodwin Fire up there. Luckily they had about 40% contained before we went up. We didn't stay long because my oldest suddenly got sick and felt better once we left. Here is what I got.
The fiber and yarn is dyed by a local dyer about 10 miles from Prescott. It was great shopping for yarn and fiber in person. I often have to buy via the Internet since there are no LYS.
Here are some pictures of our drive up to Prescott. Lots of areas still smoking and burnt near the highway.
