i've been tagged!!!
it's my very first time being tagged for any type of meme, so here goes:
What is your all time favourite yarn to knit with?
my all time fave is probably either ArtFiber's Paco or Cascade 220... Cascade more, I think... i also love noro kureyon... i used it once but the colors just make me happy.
Your favourite needles?
my all time favorite needles are Denise Interchangeables. i hate to sound like a Denise commercial but you can't beat the versatility or the price! i love circs :)
The worse thing you've ever knit?
um, the worst? probably a knit pig from the world of knitted toys. oh that poor pig ended up looking like a torpedo :(
Your most favourite knit pattern? (maybe you don't like wearing it but it was the most fun to knit)
i loved the dayflower scarf, that was so much fun to knit! also, i have started to really love cables so the basic cable hat from SNB was wonderful for me... i start making basic cable hats when i'm bored and really have nothing to do :)
Most valuable knitting technique?
this absolutely has to be the magic loop. i can't handle the monster that is dpn's. they just hate me. but with the magic loop, NO MORE!
Best knitting book or magazine?
i do really like snb (how's that for original???) and knitty 'cause there is always something to knit... i love rebecca but there's no way i can afford that mag all the time.
Your favourite knit-along?
the branching out knitalong was super cool as well as the one skein wonder knitalong (both at craftster) -- i love instant gratification!
Favourite knitblogs?
My friend Emmie's :) and Pelotes by Sylv
Favourite knitwear designer?
stephanie japel, for sure. i always covet her stuff and am continuously amazed at her gorgeous designs. also sylv has made some beautiful patterns, check out her site!
The knit item that you wear the most. (how 'bout a picture of it?)
that would have to be my basic roll brim noro beanie :)
i'll have to think about who to tag next (normally i would tag emmie but she tagged me!)

Hi San!
How are things? I realized yesterday that I am totally not in the headspace to do a sweater right now, so I am off all big projects until after XMAS... that means only socks, washcloths, toys, knitted ornaments and baby clothes...
I am feeling really frazzled lately, but reading your meme made me feel good...Thanks for doing it! Its nice to have a crafty friend!!

Hey thanks sandra, I feel honored..!!
..Oh, and I went too quick. I really love your noro hat too. This yarn is just so beautiful it doesn't need very elaborate designs to showcase it. So your hat is perfect. I bet you wear it all the time !
