Single Skeins: Highlander

Hello and welcome to Single Skeins- an online matching service that specializes fiber crafters to the alpaca yarn or alpaca blend of their dreams! Today's featured beauty is....



Highlander!



Name: Highlander


Color: Hawthorne Pink


Sign: Libra


Yardage: 145


Story:


"I'm just your typical outdoorsy lass looking for that special fiber crafter to bring out the best in me!"


Perfect Match:


"I'm a very easy to please yarn that works in all sorts of projects. I'm looking for someone who is fearless and loves working with ruggedly adorable yarns like me! :p I work up best on 7's to 10's for you knitters out there and am a snuggly blend that makes everything from sweet sweaters to awesome accesories!"


Perfect Date:


"While I come in some girly colors, I'm no girly-girl! Take me hiking, camping or rock climbing. I also love a good road trip and any adventure is good enough for me!"


Movies/Music/Books


"Braveheart is the best movie ever. Hands down. End of story. I love pretty much everything on the Discovery Channel and am totally hooked on "The Deadliest Catch". I love reading anything by Sir Walter Scott and I love Scottish and Irish pop and punk music like Snow Patrol, Flogging Molly, Dropkick Murphies, and the Coors. And I might have an Enya CD or you. You know- for chill time."


Anything else?


"I can do a great Sean Connery impression and make a mean Shepherd's pie!"

We need knitters (again)!

Hey there fiber crafters! We are doing another group project and need a couple knitters or crocheters to help us out making flowers! If you are interested, please e-mail me at paige@alpacawithatwist.com. Please include your address, what sort of time commitment you'd like to work with, and a couple pictures of your recent work. If you are on Ravelry and would like to include your username so we can see your creations, that works too!
