Oh what the heck. Count me in - sounds fun!
Country you are in: Canada
Any shipping restrictions (anywhere you will not ship to?) Anywhere
Likes and dislikes I'm fine with anything, though prefer worsted or heavier - however, would not rule out lighter. Laceweight might make me crazy. I prefer natural fibres, but am not adverse to blends (e.g., fluffy mohair/wool blends that have a bit of acrylic or nylon as they often do). I will not be making soakers or longies with mine. Can be combo of colorways or single colorway - whatever. For that matter, doesn't have to be all the same kind of yarn. I'm EASY.
Anything else we should know Nope.
ETA: Please mention if you know what you're going to knit/crochet/felt/whatever with your yarn. I'm hoping to "shop" from my own stash, and it's not all soaker-ideal (some is, don't get me wrong), so would be good to know if someone's planning to felt or what have you... _________________ Mama to:

Can I be in?? I would dearly love to!! I have a ton of posts and feedback on DS (stephlynnette), and excellent fb on ebay (stephlynnette74)!
ETA info!
Country you are in: US
Any shipping restrictions (anywhere you will not ship to?) - I'll ship wherever
Likes and dislikes - Can't handle PF (aggravates allergies). Can't do single-ply purewool or Peruvian (Logan is a heavy wetter, so we need thicker yarn). Targhee, BBR, 3-ply purewool, BFL...any of these are fine. I love bulky yarns; one of my favorites is HPY's bulky merino, and Selah's bulky BFL. Love Fall, bright, boyish, GN colors (any of those, LOL). Purple is fine; I walk the thin line of gender neutrality when it comes to Logan (he's got a soaker in the works in Zen's Lufaloo, if that tells you anything! ) I'd love 8 oz of one colorway, or 6 oz/2 oz trim for longies.
For fillers... Stitch markers, tape measures, wool washes, recipes, spices for spiced cider, potpourri, candles/tarts, cookie cutters (fall leaves, maybe?). I'm a girly girl, so anything girly & fun (ponytail holders, fun headbands or barrettes, nailpolish wrapped up so it doesn't leak, LOL) is fine with me!
ETA...I am new to knitting, and also crochet.  _________________ Stephanie, Mama to Ethan (12), Andy (8), Logan (4), and Jessie Mae (2)!

i am in too bonnie....just was being silly before!
yarn preference: no peace fleece (not because i dislike it because i work with it EVERY day...lol), 100%wool .... I love targhee and BFL and BBR (but getting 8oz of that for 30 is a stretch ...lol)
colorway: fall colors are great....bright and bold....something with black or deep brown is really nice
stuff inside: nothing nothing that can melt as I live in phoenix area and if my mailbox wasn't metal it would melt and because it is metal...well....you get it.... i am NOT girly usually at all and I rarely knit....and i don't mind if the items seem really random

Oh, and I would love longie yarn, too, either 8 oz the same, or 6 and 2. I'm so tickled to be in!! I can't wait! Oh, and I forgot to mention I can't do PF; it aggravates my allergies.  _________________ Stephanie, Mama to Ethan (12), Andy (8), Logan (4), and Jessie Mae (2)!

Are we going to have standard questions to answer? If not, would people mind putting in a wee bit of info about their likes/dislikes? I'd hate to send something a mama doesn't like. _________________ Mama to:

Here is my info:
Country you are in: US
Any shipping restrictions (anywhere you will not ship to?) - will ship anywhere
Likes and dislikes - LOVE fall colors. Would prefer a colorway with trim (6 oz colorway, 2 oz trim preferably) but am not terribly picky All 8 ounces of a colorway is also fine. Prefer gender neutral. No peace fleece please, or fishermans, patons, lion brand, or thick and thin. Favorite yarns are BFL, merino, stallion organic, licorace twist, 2 play targhee is ok, please no 3 ply or anything bulky as it bothers my wrists
Anything else we should know - Love fall themed stuff. Halloween is my favorite holiday. _________________ ~Bonnie~

Okay, I can't resist......sign me up!
I'll have to come back and edit later with my info, but count me in!
Are we going to set an amount for the goodies?
Here is my info:
Country you are in: US
Any shipping restrictions (anywhere you will not ship to?) - anywhere
Likes and dislikes - Worsted or Aran wt. wool please....I have plenty of purewool and peace fleece. No single ply...well, maybe with the exception of Galenas. I'm having a baby boy in Nov, so I'd prefer something gn or boyish. I don't need any wool wash or jewelry....I like food and clean scents, no incense-type scents. I need another size 7 and size 8 16" and 40" circ. I love stitch markers...need to fit at least a size 8 needles. I also need another set of Chibi tapestry needles. I'm not allergic to anything... Umm...I love teas, coffees, chocolate, etc.
