7. Colours you like. aqua, red, purples, black, teal, kelly green, grays, off whites.


8. Colours you hate. oranges, browns, yellows They make me look yellowy. :-(


9. Fibres you like. I like blends...wool, mohair, silk, cashmere, alpaca, the new polyester blend soft stuff.


10. Fibres you hate/allergies. acrylic


11. Preferred scarf length. don't really have a preferred length. Since I live in Houston, TX, I don't get to use a "really wintery warm" scarf much.

But, I do like a soft lacey thin type scarf that I can wrap a couple of times around my neck and still have a lot hanging. So about 60" is good for that kind of scarf.


But I'm also really into a "fashion" scarf that I can wear in the office as an accessory and also wrap a little when my neck gets cold. So that would be maybe about 40" for that. Lacey is good for that also...and "dainty" yarn.


I love patterns that are reversible!! But something that is pretty on both sides is cool too!


12. Solid or variegated? variegated is definitely cool. I do love color!! Doesn't have to be variegated but more than 1 color is cool. But I don't like intarsia, fair isle or the like.


13. Cables or lace? no cables pls. lacey is very cool since I live in a very warm climate.


14. Are you interested in a crochet or woven scarf? no


15. Would you prefer a pal with a blog? doesn't matter

TA DA!!!!

Ta Da!!! I just created my first blog!!! I've joined the International Scarf Exchange #4 and thought I would also try my hand at blogging.

I consider myself a newbie knitter even though I've knitted for awhile...hence the blog name.

I'm going back to reading about blogs so I can maybe post some photos. Oh...I guess it would help if I learned to first use my camera? :-)
