New questions to answer 🙂

I’m going to be sending out a gift for my SP tomorrow!

What is/are your favorite yarn/s to knit with?

any natural fibers– I’ve been dying to try hemp/wool, but I usually find myself picking up 100% wool either for socks (superwash of course), scarves or purses (non superwash) felting.

What is/are your current knitting obsession/s?

Purses, socks, felted items. Although I’m dying to try Charlotte’s Web (though I could never afford that much Koigu).

What is/are your favorite item/s to knit?

Currently I would say socks. I just cast on last night for another pair.

What are you knitting right now?

Socks 🙂 I’m about to start the poncho-along on the Knitter’s Review though.

What do you think about ponchos? (this is really a curiousity question for us)

See the above question LOL. I’m about to knit one– we’ll see how much wear I get out of it. I also have a summer lacey one that just needs to be seamed.

Do you prefer straight or circular needles?

Circs

How did you learn to knit?

I got a Learn to Knit kit for the Christmas before last, and finally figured it out in January of 2002.

How old is your oldest UFO?

over a year

P.S. I picked up some wire, beads and charms today and am wildly making stitch markers. I think I’ve found a new obsession! I must go out to get some more E beads tomorrow. 🙂 I also picked up a great wicker “laundry” basket at the thrift store for $2. They had two big totes full of yarn, but alas it was all acrylic :p
