Knitting Questionnaire- Courtesy of Jamaica

1) What type of yarn do you knit with most often?
My knitting experiences have been limited to merino wool, cotton and alpaca- I gotta say the merino wool has been my favorite due to the fact that the ones I have used are soft and nubby, which makes for a nice textured piece

2) Is there any type of yarn that you would love to try but haven't yet, such as bamboo, banana fiber?
Hemp and mohair are the two that I am dying to try

3) In your opinion what is a luxury yarn?
Any yarn that I would sacrifice buying something else for

4) Is there any type of yarn or fiber content you dislike or would prefer not to receive?
I am repelled by anything the least bit itchy or scratchy- I am very sensitive to things rubbing on my skin.

5) What type of garments do you most often knit?
Since I am a beginner I have to say the only garments I have knit are scarves but I am getting my brave on to start a sweater

6) What types of knitting books do you enjoy?
I love knitting books that don't take knitting soooo seriously- and have very explicit instructions. Since I am a beginning knitter I need things spelled out for me clearly and concise. My knitting bible is StitchN'Bitch By Debbie Stoller (thank you Rachael and Jamaica for the turn on). And recently The Mason- Dixon Knitting Book has entertained me.

7) What is a color you like but rarely or never buy yourself?
Fuschia- I love it but look terrible wearing it-it does something horrible to my skin tone.

8) If you were pregnant and had to name your baby a fiber, what would her/his name be?
Julia "Cashmere" Jacobs - Novak

9) Do you spin?
Not yet, I will be by the end of the year i've vowed

10) What is one fiber you've never spun? N/A

11) If someone in your family or a best friend had to describe you in one word, what would it be?
Insane

12) Please tell us one odd thing about you.
I don't think it is odd but other's have told me it is- I love to clean. Sweep , mop , dust , housework sort of things.

13) What was your favorite cartoon when you were little.
Yogi Bear- I wanted to go on a picnic with him- he has style

14) Do you have animals?
3 cats- Melissa , Kenyon and Rocky. 10 fish - No names

15) And last but not least, if you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I have lived so many places I prefer to stay put in Indiana. But , if they kicked me outta here I would want to live in Italy.
