No one tagged me but I'm doing this anyway because it's interesting.
What is your all time favorite yarn to knit with??
I don't have just one. Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock for socks. Malabrigo in the soft and yummy category. I really enjoy Paton's Classic Merino for the cheap yet real nice knitting. There are more, yes.
Your favorite needles?
I knit mainly with bamboo circulars. I really like Addi Turbos (can't beat that cord) but I don't have many of those, I have only tiny ones for socks.
The worst thing you've ever knit?
A poncho out of Plymouth Encore for a preschool raffle. I made it on a knitting machine, so I'm not sure it counts, but there were some errors where the knitted fabric dropped off the machine and it was all fucky in a couple of places. I fixed it the best I could but it was never perfect. I'm glad I never have to see that thing again.
Your most favorite knit pattern? (maybe you don't like wearing it...but it was the most fun to knit)
Rogue.
Most valuable knitting technique?
Being able to fix mistakes easily yet accurately, so no one will ever know :-)
Best knit book or magazine?
My all-time essential is Nancie Wiseman's Knitter's Book of Finishing Techniques.
Your favorite knit-a-long?
Hmm, I don't really do them often.
Your favorite knitblogs?
The 4 I read most often are:
Jody's Weblog
You Knit What?

The Boogie Knits
Your favorite knitwear designer?
Hmmm... that's a tough one.
