the question game
February 4, 2009so. i might be the most boring person in the world right now. every day i spin or dye. all i talk about is spinning. it was a horrible time to join twitter because i… well… spin. if you’re reading this for artistic content, i promise i’ll get back to that some day. hopefully soon.
that said and so that i don’t talk about spinning CONSTANTLY, here’s a new game to spice up the blog. ask me a question. i’m thinking right now that i’ll answer one or two questions a week until i run out. that way i can intersperse it with the spinning stuff – and therefore not make you non-spinners want to unsubscribe :D
no rules as to what you can ask about, but i do get veto power. and non-spinners, if lots of people ask spinning questions, i’ll answer them too.

What is your favorite FO (ever) and why?
What is your favorite color combination?
How did your own unique style come about? Clothes, glasses etc. :)
What is the one book you would recommend to a beginning spinner?
How did your love for fiber arts come about ?
if you could live in any city outside of the states, where would you live?
Whats your favorite restaurant (or restaurants)in Pittsburgh? My favorite restaurant of all time is Fuel and Fuddle in Oakland. I am absolutely addicted to their nachos (no meat, extra salsa)and really can not even describe how much I love them. Many of my favorite restaurants and favorite foods are in pittsburgh so I had to ask!
Could you please describe your default spinning method?
um…how about…any dye tips for an amateur sweater recycler who wants more variety than Kool-Aid offers? What else can I dye my ramen with?
what is it that makes your toes curl up in excitement? (within reason) perhaps we could expand it to a) fibre related and b) not fibre related…;-)
What’s the strangest dream you’ve ever had?
or,
if you were to write a movie, what would it be about?

My question is similar to Brokeknits (the poster above) but its more specific to knitting & spinning. I wondered with all of the spinning & knitting you do for shows, how long do you do each per day?

I am also interested in hearing your thoughts on dyeing. What are your dye methods and set-up like? I am weary of using acid dyes at home because of their toxicity, how do you make sure you’re dyeing safely with dyes that are not food-safe?
