Here is the questionnaire for SP13. Please be sure to post it in a spot on your blog where your pal can easily find it. Since your pal will use this to help create your packages you'll want to have it posted to your blog no later than November 15th, but sooner would be better as it can be helpful to us in selecting your pals.
1. What is/are your favorite yarn/s to knit with? What fibers do you absolutely *not* like?
I like Malabrigo Worsted but I like anything that's a natural fiber. I definately don't love the way that acrylic feels.

I bought a wicker basket until I can find the perfect fit for it, so it's all not laying on the floor or in a bag.
