How do you feel about knitted stuff?
Fancy? Plain?
- I love knitted things. You can get as fancy or as plain as you like. I am trying right now myself to learn lace knitting but so far its not been so great.

What types of things do you like to wear?
- I answered this somewhat in my questionnaire, but I also love cozy things like, wraps and hoodies, and thick socks and comfy things.
I'm into beer. How 'bout you?
Styles? - No beer thank you, but I do like ciders and meads.
And booze? - I am a hard liquor kind of girl ;)

How do you feel about caramel? - all the caramel, all the time :)
Salt or no? -Both
With chocolate or without? -both

Would you be interested in home made food items?
- garlic dill pickles
- blackberry jam
- dried honey crisp apples
- applesauce (with or without red hots)
- elderberry syrup (with honey and apple cider vinegar - great for immune boosting)
- honey from our bees
- rose petal liquor (made with our own rose petals and everclear but diluted down a bit so it doesn't knock you over)
- baked goods of your choice, what do you like or dislike?
- I am all over all of the things listed above, except possibly the baked goods do to a wheat allergy. If not wheat then we wold be good :)

Would you be interested in project bags/pouches? I usually make flat bottom round pouches with a pocket inside and a drawstring. Possibility of embroidery if we still have the huge commercial machine. - I cannot stress this enough, if my witch should choose to make something for me with her hands, and take the time and effort to think it out and work on it, then I would happily accept it and find a use for it.

And to go along with the previous knitting question...
Are you allergic to any fiber or do you know what kind of yarn you prefer? (merino, merino cashmere, merino cashmere silk, 100% silk, 100% cashmere, merino nylon, BFL, BFL silk, etc. Or do you like acrylic?) -I don't really have a preference to what the fiber is, as long as it isn't scratchy.

Would you want a quilted pot holder? - yes i would, see 2 questions above.

Do you have any prefered flavour of shortbread? - no.

What are you interested in from the recent BPAL and BPTP updates? (Lilith, Lunacy, etc.) - I really want Good Morning London and Plush Viscera

Would you like hibiscus seeds? -yes please!

Harry Potter? - Yes!!!!!!! I have constantly been sorted into Ravenclaw until recently another sort saw me into HufflePuff

Does anyone like fleece character hats? Like these: http://wonderlandonl...like-fleece-hat? What kinda characters would you like to see? They're adorable but I don't know that I would wear it often enough to warrant owning one.

Reused Packing Supplies? I have tons of bubble mailers that I get reused from my work so I am good with those (although if people don't mind, I may use some as packing filler).

Do you like things with Pumpkin (or Pumpkin Spice?) I love pumpkin, but maybe not so much pumpkin spice. I would however, be open to trying something off the usual path of those kind of things.
Do you decorate for Halloween all year? If not, what level of decor do you have for Halloween?
Absolutely all year

Indoor/outdoor Halloween decorations? What do you do, and what would you prefer to receive?
I will happily take either

What's your preferred Halloween decor style: classic/traditional (skulls, pumpkins, bats), kitchsy/cute, retro, elegant/Victorian, horror/macabre?
I like all of it but the cute stuff for the most part.

and finally,
What's your candy preference? Chocolate of course, all but white, and I absolutely adore the treacle toffees, or Molasses toffees- can't get enough!

Candles or wax melts/wax tarts? I will do either, but please refrain from oceanside-y scents or anything too foody :)

Do you have an Etsy wish list, and if so, what's your user name there?
I believe this is on the spreadsheet, but its witcharoo

Tokyo Milk? Yea or Nay?
I have never even heard of it until now, so I am now going to check it out so checked it out and I would be willing to try out the dead sexy line, if you were so inclined.

would you like notebooks or journals? Utilitarian or fancy? Lined or blank? Tell me of your stationery lustings.
I love all stationary- nice pens (I use a fountain pen for day to day), fancy papers, pretty journals, they can be lined or not, and a nice planner would do well for next year. I prefer spiral bound for an organizer, and book bound for journals, and colored pages are fine as well.

If you are ok with knitted things, what colors do you like?
I love knitted things and the colours I like are all the jewel tones and black.
If striping, what two (or more) colors together?
Black and anything, usually only two and never more than three together though..
If you want yarn, what colors do you want?
--- A color palette would be lovely if you use Pinterest. Or just want to post palette photos in your blog.

I would love some yarn, and I will make a pinterest board specifically for pallets of colors, but Im pretty much all over the place. J


Are you interested in fabric? Again, what colors, what themes, etc.
I would go with the same color pallets as the yarn and I also have a fabric board as well. I am currently collecting charm squares for a random coloured quilt top I want to make. You can also look at my quilts board as there is tons of stuff on there too. Although right now I am little desperate for a layer cake pack or a fat quarter pack of Tula Pinks Elizabeth fabric collection

What are your tea and/or coffee preferences? Loose leaf / whole bean or bagged / ground? Do you have a favorite type? Flavor? Retailer?
I dont do coffee but teas are good, I just seem to drink as much of it these days. I have liked Davids Tea, Twinnings (the irish breakfast one is a sure go)
If you could receive one handmade item - everything from knitted or crocheted gloves and scarves to sewn bags to fanart or original art, what would you prefer?
If my Witch knits, they can make me a lovely shawl. If my Witch Crochets, they can do the same. If my Witch sews, they can make me
What are your favorite fandoms, if any?
Sherlock, Dr. Who, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones,

Skincare- do you use a particular routine? What products would you absolutely not use?
Right now, my skin seems to be going through some weird sort of change and the things I have used for years are not doing what they should be. I am open to trying new products that other people here have had success with. I have slightly sensitive t zone oily skin and I do worry about wrinkles lol.

Bath/shower products?
I use both.

BPTP products? Pre-owned okay?
Absolutely

Essential oils and aromatherapy oils- yay, or nay?
Sure

Favorite animal?
Honey badgers and foxes. Favorite birds, owl and raven.

Twilight Alchemy Lab oils?
I would like to try Wolfs Heart.

Authors - Jennifer Estep, Faith Hunter. Heard of them? Love them, hate them, or eh?
I havent read anything from either of them but I would be willing to give it a go J

Knitted things. Specifically scarves/cowls and shawls.....grabby hands or not? Favorite colors? Are you allergic or sensitive to any textiles, ie wools, cashmere, nylon, metallic threads, mohair, alpaca? Knitted washcloths? For the kitchen or for the bath? And again, colors??

I think I've pretty well answered this in the above, but Witch, if you need more specifics, just let me know!

So, Witchee, I make hair falls (you can see a few examples in my woefully out of date Tumblr here: http://lovelybluekarou.tumblr.com )
Would you like some hair falls? I can make a single (ponytail) or double (for pigtails). Short, long, types of yarns, ribbons? Extra things (buttons, beads, wire wraps? Colors/color combinations? Stuff to avoid?

They are lovely but not for me, Thank you

NYCC Scents: There are none that scream at me to get them, but if you pressed me to pick one, it would be Mrs. Bunce.

Tarot Cards: No thank you.

Cryptozoology/cryptids (Big Foot, lake monsters, chupacabra, etc.): While I am not headlong into discovering them , Wikipedia did show me exactly how many there are- wow! I don't know that I have a favorite, but I think it could be fun :)

So, the Weenies came up and I am surprised at how many caught my eye,which is no good for my bank account:

*Witch Dance
A Kneeling Child Watching a Ghost, Devil, and Puppet Making Mayhem in a Room
*Dead Leaves and Lavender buds
This Wan White humming Hive
*Speak! Speak!
The Gambols of Ghosts
The Ghosts High Noon
The Smithfield Ghost
The Ghost of Darius Appearing to Atossa
*third charm

The ones with stars are the ones I really want and the others I really want to just try :)

BPTP picks:

The Ghost Story
October Dusk

Edited to add lavender pumpkin floss, because well, lavender. :)
