Kitty Kelly (Quitmeyer) (wellreadpanda.com) is a librarian turned professional yarn-crafter. Her interests lie in sustainability, knitting and crochet, books, and red pandas. She has volunteered to teach some of her amazing skills during the conference. Perhaps you will be able to become a mobile knitter / hiker like her!
She has also offered to lead daily yoga and meditation classes at dinacon. (Though she has a disclaimer that she is not a professional in any of these.)
