I'll get to the point now.
- Do you knit, or crochet, or do both? How long have you been knitting\crocheting? I knit!!! I have tried to crochet several times let me tell you that didn't go very well :) I had wanted to learn knitting for a very long time. I convinced my mom to take a class with me in October 2006. So that would be less than a year of knitting for me but I am absolutely in love with knitting.
- Have you knit dishcloths or dishtowels before? Only dishcloths so far :)
- What are your favorite cotton yarns? Is there a cotton or linen you’ve been dying to try but have not? I don't have a favorite cotton yarn, but I do like the peaches and cream.
- Are there any cotton yarns you don’t enjoy knitting with? I have never met a yarn I haven't liked yet :) I am sure there are some out there though.
- What type of needle do you prefer using? (Metal/Wood/Plastic) I have a bamboo pair that I usually use for dishcloths but I got some knit piks(metal circulars) for my birthday and I am absolutely in love with them.
- What other projects do you enjoy knitting or crocheting? I have a tendency to gravitate towards purses and bags.....I have made a baby blanket for a friend that I thoroughly enjoyed. I am currently working on finishing a baby kimono that has been fun too.
- Do you have other hobbies or enjoy other kinds of crafting? There are hobbies other than knitting???? Says who???? HaHa :) I enjoy reading as well. I have read some awesome novels about knitting, if you are interested I could post a list of them.
- What kind of treats do you like? Chocolate? Candies? Nuts? Lindt Lindor Truffles-Peanut butter filled are my favorite. My favorite candies are those ones that look like strawberries with the soft goey center typically given out at Halloween time for some reason. Cashews and Almonds are near the top o f the list as well.
- What colors are your kitchen and bath decorated in, if any? My kitchen accessories are black and white. My bathroom is yellow tile with obnoxiously bright and vivid but not florescent colors.
- What are your favorite colors and what colors do you dislike? I gravitate towards dark blue hues and earthy green tones. I am not particularly fond of pastels.
- Do you drink coffee? Tea? Other beverages? Ice Tea is my favorite, I do like coffee as well medium roast coffee is generally my preference.
- Do you have any kids (human or pet variety!)? None of the human variety :) I do have a canine child. Winston, he is featured on my blog. He is devious and sneaky but so cute. He has several costumes. The blog he is sporting his Hawaiian beach attire. Of course for winter, we have outfits as well. I am sure you will see more when I get them on the blog
- Do you have any allergies? Seasonal, mold & pollen
- Please share 3 tidbits about yourself that you think your pal and other swappers might find odd or interesting. I am a project runway junkie!!! I love that show I cannot wait for them to come out with a new season I wish they would hurry. Along with project runway, I like almost all the other Bravo series ie: Top Chef & Workout (i don't watch housewives of orange county or my life on the d list)!!! My mom is my best friend we do almost everything together, she only lives 4 houses away...(sometimes she wishes I would live further I think;) One of my dreams is to meet Ben Wallace in person. I love to watch him play basketball. My husband always tries to change the channel when I am watching sports so he can watch a movie we have seen hundreds of times. Is that backwards or what!!!!
