Do you like knitted goods? If so, what would you like, what colors, and do you have any sensitivites or preference when it comes to type of yarn (ex: wool: yay or nay? do you prefer machine washable materials? do you not care?)?

 

 

 

any fiber is good except mohair. i don't really care about washibility, all of my handspuns need to be handwashed anyway. colors run to the autumnal

 

.

 

Are you crafty? Do you like to make things?

 

i knit and i'm a handspinner. i like those little craft kits you get at michael's too.

Do you wear hair clips, barrettes, etc?

 

my hair is really fine/thin and i gave up on trying to find stuff that will stay in it.

Alcohol- yay or nay?

 

yes- just not tequila

 

Do you wear earrings/have pierced ears?

 

nope!

Colors- if it shows up on a tree in october I'll like it. My favorite color currently is a rusty orange that blackberry refers to as inferno. I'm a fan of jewel tones.

Dried fruit- I eat it but it's not something I normally think about buying.

 

-Would you enjoy a novelty scarf?

 

i love sheep and penguins! i also really love some of the skull/bone cables that are floating around ravelry right now. my original desire for school was epidemiology and i would still love something bio/genetics related.

If so, at what level?

 

as long as i can actually wear it, i don't really mind.

 

 

-Delicate, tough, or it doesn't matter? As in how often do you plan to use it and how rough are those circumstances of use?

 

delicate is okay, though tough would probably see more use. i'm not exactly gentle with my stuff though i can be if necessary (i have handspun alpaca scarves in my collection).

Anyone have colors/fabrics they would HATE for me to use in case I start early and don't wait for my person & their info sheet?

 

...i'm actually a red heart fan. but i'm not really big into the novelty yarns right now unless they're part of a wider project (eyelash, pompoms, things like that). and i'm allergic to mohair.

-What scarf-types do you like?

exs: Cowl (either the scrunched down kinds... or the tall ones that shield your neck while you wear a jacket), no. they make me look like i have no neck.

 

hooded scarves, sure. there's a couple i like on ravelry

 

shawls, YES. i have a small shawl army.

 

poncho-like, probably not

 

skinny (or wide) and wider than skinnier

 

long (or short) normal scarves, longer than shorter

 

wrap, ...i'm not sure what a wrap scarf even is, but i don't have a lot of sleep right now...

 

fashion types (like necklace-like, or shawlettes), a shawlette more than a necklace type

 

moebius?? more than a cowl

what kind of non-knitted scarves/wraps do you like? Length? Style?

 

i like pretty much everything, especially multicolored prints. fleece would definitely get used.

how do you feel about ruffles/pick ups?

 

if they're relatively small. otherwise i feel like i look like a walking christmas tree skirt.

what are your least favorite colors?

 

...i actually don't think that i don't have a least favorite, though i don't do a lot of pastels.
