SP8 Questionaire

What is/are your favorite yarn/s to knit with?

I have so many allergies that I do prefer alpaca and have found out that I can use a few types of merino wool Malabrigo yarn because of the way its treated and because of its softness, and just learned two weeks ago that I can use KPM after it is washed a few times as well! I am very allergic to mohair but can use alpaca, angora, and casmere just fine. I have recently discovered that I have a very hard time with cottons also it seems to be rough on my hands? Not sure why maybe its just not soft enough for this aging princess? hahah... I guess this makes me a yarn snob doesnt it?
