Monkey Sock Swap Questionnaire

Well, fun lovers, I've joined the Monkey Sock Swap and have to post the following questionnaire in order for my pal to know what I like and don't like. The swap sign-ups run until August 31; if you would like to join in the fun, you can reach the Swap Mother at

Here goes!

Monkey Sock Swap THREE Questionnaire

The basics:
Do you consider yourself a beginning sock knitter, an intermediate, or have you been doing this so long you could probably knit a pair in your sleep? I've been knitting for 47 years, so I guess that makes me a sleeping knitter

The measurements:
Shoe Size:   10
Foot circumference:    Ball of foot - 9" (10.25" minus 13% for toe-up on two circs) Instep - 10.75"
Foot length: 10.50"
 
Yarn Preferences:
What colors do you love?   Orange, all greens, yellow, all blues, darker purples, rainbow mixes, turquoise, teal

Do you prefer solids or variegated? Variegated!!
 
Do you prefer wool, cotton or acrylic yarn?  Definitely wool

What colors would you never wear?   I wear all colors; I truly love them all

What are your favorite brands of yarn? I usually buy indie dyers, so any of them are what I love (found on Etsy)

Are there any new brands you would like to try? No, I'll leave that up to my pal if she chooses commercial yarn

Cookie A. Patterns:
Which of her patterns have you already knit? None

Which pattern(s) would you like to knit and don’t already own? Pomatomus

Other pertinent information:

Would you be willing to have an international Monkey Pal or do you prefer one in the US?    I'd prefer US, but will take anyone who needs a pal

Do you have any allergies? No

Will your knitting be exposed to smoke or animals? No

Are you on Ravelry yet? If you don’t mind having new friends, what is your Ravelry name? Yes; my name is pjyarngoddess


And there you have it. Now you know more about me than you probably cared to. Let the festivities begin!

Oh... and if anybody feels like knitting me a pair of socks, you have all the information you need ...
