I received my Secret Pal !!!
I loved to receive my Pal - just visited the blog - much more better than mine...
As I'm also a new blogger, and very addicted to knitting, I forget to stop by and post on my blog - always reading everybody else's blogs - and forever forgetting mine.
Very anxious to hear new from the Pal who got me!
Welcome to my blog!
And I'm finishing my FMB - soon more pictures to post!

SP6 Questionnaire
1. Are you a yarn snob (do you prefer higher quality and/or natural fibers)? Do you avoid Red Heart and Lion Brand? Or is it all the same to you?
No, really would love to put my hands on a Noro or Cascade, but in Brasil we don’t have many choices, only two or three manufacturers. Oh God! I just remembered – would love a sock yarn!
2. Do you spin? Crochet?
I do crochet, but I’d love to learn to spin – really looking forward to have a drop spindle with some fibers and an instruction booklet.
3. Do you have any allergies? (smoke, pets, fibers, perfume, etc.)
Yes, to smoke, some perfumes and beauty products.
4. How long have you been knitting?
I’ve been knitting since a little girl – now I’m 31 – my birthday is November 4th!!!
