HSS3 questionnaire
The first two Hogwarts Sock Swaps were a lot of fun and I was saddened when I discovered that both blogs had been deleted. The former Headmistress is no longer running these, but we have had a wonderful woman step up and start a third sock swap. Here is my questionnaire for this third one, which I am very much looking forward to (and I am wondering what the chances are of me getting yet another book-color-loving Ravenclaw as my pal).
1. What Hogwarts house have you been sorted into?
Slytherin
2. List your favorite double-point needle brands, including size and length. Or would you prefer circulars?
KnitPicks - the metal ones; Inox; Brittany Birch, in that order of brand preference; I mostly have been using the smaller length sock ones lately, usually size 0-1-1.5
3. Would you like to try a new brand needle? If so, which brand? Size? Length?
I have decided that I want to learn magic loop for knitting two socks at one time. I love knitting socks on smaller needles (US0, US1, US1.5 are my most used for socks), and I think I want 40" cables, possibly longer, though I am not sure. I assume the 40" would be long enough to do two socks at once, so they should suffice. I do love the metal KnitPicks needles, and I've heard great things about the Addi turbos, so either would make me very happy.
4. If you are a RAVENCLAW, do you prefer the colors in the film or the book? Do you have a strong preference?
N/A
5. Do you have any allergies?
I am very sensitive to most synthetic fragrances, as well as high fructose corn syrup.
6. Do you smoke?
Nope.
7. Do you have cats?
Yes, one. He tends to be rather ambivalent about my hobbies, though.
8. Would you like and international pal if possible?
I'd prefer in the US, but can take international if needed.
9. Do you have a preference on the size of your stitch makers, fit a larger or smaller needle?
I normally don't knit on larger than a US size 8. I also prefer non-dangly stitch markers.

Interesting, I am really sensitive to HFCS too. I had no idea that you were too.
