Meet Marie: Marie still lives on her ranch in Lincoln County, Washington with her cows, sheep, cats, dogs, and other assorted creatures. She started crocheting at the age of 5, and her addiction to “nice” wool yarns led to a spinning wheel and making her own yarn by the time she was 35. Now, nearing her 70th birthday, she still keeps looking at the way things work and asking “why?”
