High Point is an area in the Pacific Northwest
(Washington State) where we escape the real world
and get back in touch with nature…. the deep forest,
the mist, the serenity of the silence. As I work at home,
I throw this wrap around my shoulders and it reminds
me of the deep green of the trees and the gray of the
clouds and gentle rains. I feel embraced by nature
again. This is a free pattern!
