Did you notice the button for SP3 on the right? I’ve never been a SP before mainly because I hear about them when people “say lookie what I got!” but this time Emma mentioned the sign up for the 3rd on her blog and I got myself signed up. I am supposed to answer some questions so here they are:
1. Are you a yarn snob (do you prefer high-end/natural fibers)? Do you avoid Red Heart and Lion Brand? Or is it all the same to you? Yes I think wool is supreme and should be in all yarns. To make myself even more difficult-I avoid yarns heavier than DK weight
2. Do you spin? Crochet? I do spin a teensy bit
3. Do you have any allergies? (smoke, pets, fibers, perfume, etc.) Allergic to cats and angora makes me break out in hives
