For my SP5

1. Are you a yarn snob (do you prefer higher quality and/or natural fibers)? Do you avoid Red Heart and Lion Brand? Or is it all the same to you?
Yes, I am a yarn snob. I prefer natural fibers and I am allergic to acrylic. I can still knit with acrylic yarn (if I use tons of hand lotion), but I can't wear it. And it makes me sneeze. And sometimes my eyes start itching.

2. Do you spin? Crochet?
Tried to spin, will try again. I don't croquet, I can but I don't.

3. Do you have any allergies? (smoke, pets, fibers, perfume, etc.)
Nope.

4. How long have you been knitting?
Since I was a teenager.

5. Do you have an Amazon or other online wish list?
Yup. Amazon list under my name, two more lists on my main blog, wish list under my last name on Full Thread Ahead.

6. What's your favorite scent? (for candles, bath products etc.)
Lately it's lemon.

7. Do you have a sweet tooth?
Not really.

8. What other crafts or Do-It-Yourself things do you like to do?
I am not crafty at all. Only thing I can do is knit.

9. What kind of music do you like? Can your computer/stereo play MP3s? (if your buddy wants to make you a CD)
My computer can play everything and I would listen to everything once.

10. What's your favorite color? Or--do you have a color family/season/palette you prefer? Any colors you just can't stand?
I like all colors but pastel. And I am really into reds lately.

11. What is your family situation? Do you have any pets?
I have a husband and two kids - do they count as pets?

12. What are your life dreams? (really stretching it here, I know)
I am pretty happy with my life - win the lotto so I won't have to work anymore to pay for my yarn habit?
