Color Me Late

So what else is new? I'm a little behind schedule posting my answers for the Favorite Color Swap. Without further ado, patient pal, here we go.

1. What are your top three favorite colors?
   
   Purple, blue, blue-green, in that order. I also like reds, especially purplish ones. I like deep and bright colors. My least favorite color is mustard yellow.
   
   

2. What crafts do you really enjoy?
   
   Knitting and spinning. I've done some dyeing but am by no means an expert yet.
   
   

3. What products do you really covet?
   
   Qiviut, of course. Getting closer to financial sanity, I also crave Mountain Colors Bearfoot and alpaca laceweight.
   
   

4. What other activities do you enjoy besides your favorite crafty things?
   
   Reading, walking in the woods, word games.
   
   

5. Is there anything you collect?
   
   Cat hair. Oh, you mean on purpose? Yarn and fiber, but you knew that. Apart from stash enhancement, I'm not really big on collecting things.
   
   

6. What is your zodiac sign and/or Chinese zodiac symbol?
   
   Sun sign: Pisces. Chinese zodiac symbol: boar.
