Spring Into Summer Dishcloth Swap Questionaire


1. When did you learn to knit? Who taught you? I learned to crochet as a kid in grade school, not really sure who it was I actually learned from.

2. What was your very first completed object? Your most recent? Years ago and it was a hairpin lace afghan in shades of purple, my mom taught me hairpin lace. My most recent completed project is a drawstring bag with a flap in teal with alittle fun fur through it here and there. I’ve only gotten into making everything other then afghans in the last 14 years…having a blast!

3. What was the very first thing you sent to the frog pond? (pulled out and started over) Your most recent? A tote I’m working on as I’m angeling.

4. What is currently on the needles for you? A Lapghan for my hubby and has been for some time, otherwise hoping to start the crochet Entrelac Bag

5. What types of needles do you enjoy working with? What have you tried and hated? I really like the crystal lite crochet hooks, don’t really know of any others, other than the usual aluminum ones. Now they have them with lites in them..lol What will they think of next

6. Have you knit dishcloths before? Yes I did knit one, I’ve crocheted many

7. What was your favorite one? No real favorite, I finally got to do a diagonal one and I have to say it is one of those no brainer ones to do.

8. Least favorite? Haven’t found one yet that I didn’t like.

9.Do you use homemade dishcloths or face cloths yourself, or give them as gifts, or both? Yes I do use dishcloths especially and I do give them when I make up a gift set (dishcloth, towel, scrubby, hot pad)

10. What are your favorite and least favorite scents? (For your body, such as soap/lotion/etc) Love the fruit scents especially coconut or peach. I don’t really like vanilla but do use black raspberry/vanilla from body & bath works.

11. What are your favorite colors? Purples, teals, black, like most colors, not a big fan of orange…I’m a jeans person so blues work too.

12. What colors (if any) are your bathroom and kitchen decorated in? kitchen at moment still lavender walls with pastels in accessories (have the spice village set from lenox), Hoping to eventually change kitchen to black/white with red accessories (diner/retro) themed. Main bathroom is purple, mauve and sage green. Son’s is Teal and master bath is up in air..lol been thinking moving main bath colors upstairs and then doing black accessories with teal & purple that way the black cat hair will match…lol

13. What other hobbies and crafts do you enjoy? Lots, I do most crafts or will try any, but I mainly crochet, do some beading and plastic canvas, need to get back to my scrapbooking & X-stitch. I do like to work with wood too & try to paint
