Holiday Sock Exchange

I've signed up for the Holiday Knits, Sox Exchange organized by Arial over at Wicked Stitches. I really enjoyed the last sock exchange that I took part in that I figured I'd try another!

To aide the knitter who is knitting socks for me, Arial prepared a short survey.

1. What are your foot measurements?

I have big feet. The length of my foot (heel to big toe) is 10.5", equivalent to a women's size 11. The circumference of my foot at the ball is 9".

2. Do you have a favorite sock yarn?

I long sworn that I love Fleece Artist sock yarn. However I recently finished a pair of Koigu socks that I am constantly wearing. I like soft wool socks.

3. Is there a specific pattern you favor?...lace or ribbed?

There's no specific pattern that I favour. I may knit a lot of ribbed socks because I sometimes use sock knitting as my "lazy knitting". However, I'm starting to embrace more textured sock knitting.

4. What colors do you prefer? Do you like solids or stripes?

A few years back I was really into the stripes, but lately I've noticed that I'm into solid colours.

5. Do you have any allergies to a specific fiber?

I'm allergy free!

6. Holiday that you usually celebrate?

Christmas. :)
