This is a list for just my craftster.org swap partners, I'll modify it from time to time.

Supplies –

1. yarn - any kind really I'm almost out!! (at least enough to make a scarf)
4. fabrics of any sort – see below for colors, for patterns I like floral, asian and geometric
5. zippers – and your own instructions for best way to use them
6. stitch markers for knitting (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! - I have size 10 needles)

Crafted stuff –

1. A bag like this in blue or pink, doesn't need to be vinyl as long as it's cute. I need it sorta big too (my sewing skillz are not good enough for this)
2. A zipper pouch (makeup bag size) think sewingstars.com or stitchpixie.com (zippers elude me) Thank you k8kre8s!
3. A set of hair sticks – I have long hair but these need to be short-ish not full chopstick length - about the length of a bick pen without the cap on.
4. Big chunky beaded necklace (Think large size marbles) thank you bracelet_girl!
5. These earrings
6. Needle book - THANK YOU Qasicat!
7. Stenciled shirt with a gun (walther ppk) and flowers (the S.O. knows how to stencil but damn if it's a little too much to get my head around) Women's Medium Please - but must be stretchy as I'm kinda curvy
7a. You would be my best-est friend in the whole world if you made me this dress, but instead of an owl, I want a Walther PPKS!
8. Cast resin necklace with a georgia o'keefe image (flowers not bones) – I don't have space/ventilation to cast resin.
8a. A microscope slide necklace with same art - I lost all my soldering stuff when I moved to LA
9. Any jewelry – I'm bored with what I have and the stuff I can make - well bored with that too Tongue
10. I want a crafty pirate (the one with scissors)! either a pin/button or a charm for my purse. Darn cafepress for not taking paypal!
11. a totoro hat!!

Other non crafty stuff –

1. A learn to knit book ( I know how to make a scarf but I've never followed any patterns)
2. A mix CD of electronica/techno/dance/dub/house stuff
3. A surprise – see below for what I like.

About me – almost 33 y.o. living in Hollywood. I love dogs, anything ultramarine blue or cobalt, computers, technology, the internet, sci-fi, anime, anything Japanese especially hello kitty and san-x. I don't drive, but I take the train to work – subways ROCK! I'm pretty girly, but not lacey and froofy, think candy and pink. I love pink too….However, as an aged ex-goth/new wave chic, I'm still addicted to black and all my techno style jewelry (think computer bits and lots of shiny stuff etc). My favorite designer style is Oakley, as in the sunglasses. Dragonflies are my favorite bug, but I'm not a nature girl – I love the city –pictures of tiny cute animals (like meomi.com) are awesome. Dress wise, I do conservative but hip for work (I work at an internet company so I can't dress too stuffy) with mostly black, some grey, green, blue, orange, and pink. I'm a t-shirt and jeans girl at home. I hate aquamarine and turquoise.
