Guess what, folks! Today you'll be receiving your partners! I'll be sending them out by PM, but I'm going to leave this post for everyone to say what they can and can't have - for example, if you've got a wool allergy, post it down here.
Everyone ready?
GO!
Everyone ready?
GO!
No alpaca, or mohair please.
Date: 2010-12-05 07:02 pm (UTC)But for the rest, I'm all good. :D
No alpaca, mohair, acrylic or laceweight, please!
Date: 2010-12-05 08:31 pm (UTC)Laceweight is too fine for me to manipulate without a lot of hand pain. Learned that one the hard way. :/ Sport on up is best, but I can work with nice fingerings on a good day.
So looking forward to this :D
thicker yarn; no acrylic, please

Date: 2010-12-06 01:10 am (UTC)(my knitting instructor used to hand me skeins of uncertain lineage because I could tell after a few seconds of fidgeting with it whether it was wool or not)
No acrylic please

Date: 2010-12-06 01:43 pm (UTC)If anybody has hand-spun cat yarn, or is interested in producing some, please contact me, I am horribly interested in this idea. :-)

Date: 2010-12-06 10:46 pm (UTC)I must also report a sensitivity to pure wool, but I do fine with superwash. I also have hit and miss problems with alpaca (the llama silk I just knit a cowl with was fine, for instance.)
(also I'm katieintheworld on Ravelry, if you want to see the kinds of things I've been knitting...)

Date: 2010-12-07 12:15 am (UTC)I'm fine with pretty much whatever. :) I'm Fallingbooks over on Rav if you want to see what I generally get up to.
