Hello there! Thank you for posting your survey, you and I share a lot in common when it comes to tastes in yarn and skill level. I shouldn't have any trouble spoiling you. ;)

I'm adding you to my bloglines and I'm looking forward to learning about you. I'm a few years older than you, but only by 5.

Besides, you like chocolate. That's enough for me. *grin*
