Description:
In this swap you will have 1 partner. You will crochet 6 squares and send it to your partner. I will run this same swap in different parts. There will be 8 parts in this series giving you a total of 48 squares if you join in all of the parts. I know it seems like alot but it will be a very nice squared afghan when completed. The squares will be a 10 inch square. To keep the colors in tune throughout this series I am asking that you do any earth toned colors. Here is a list of some earth tone colors. There are many more but this is a start: Brass Khaki Brown any shade Chocolate Copper Almond Peach Wheat *Wood I found a nice site with a picture of each color as well and that is www.squarework.com/notebook/earth you can check them out for help. I will angel this swap in all the series so that way everyone gets a completed set of squares. As for the stitch you can use any stitch you want. Try something new, something you know. The sky is the limit and that is what makes it so great. Any type of washable yarn will be accepted. The yarn you chose will also add character to the finished product. Newbies are welcome as long as they have a completed profile. We all like to know who we are swapping with. Please no no-sends within the last 3 months. If I can help with anything let me know. If you need ideas let me know, anything at all I am here to answer any and all. I have given you 4+ weeks to complete the squares which should be enough time but if you have any trouble let me know. This should be a good swapping experience for everyone! This will be US Only unless we have alot of response I may open it up to an international swap. Wea re on series 3 and I am hoping that everyone likes your squares so far. Cant wait until the end to put them all together! Dont forget that you can send along some "extras" to earn some hearts. Also include something about yourself so we can know a little more about who made our squares.

So you both know the coordinator of this swap pushes a button & the swap-bot computer assigns partners. After partners are done you should see a link up by the title of the swap saying "view my partners". You send six 10 inch squares to your partner. This is how it has worked in previous rounds & I am sure that is how it's going to go for future rounds. That is pretty much how it works on swap-bot generally.

Ruth Anne, I did my profile,added to it. Thanks for the tip, on how to do it. I would have never known other wise. I forgot to answer your one question, about swapping squares for parts 1&2 to catch me up. No, that's not necessary. I can add to it myself. But thanks for the offer. Debbie Tunnicliff

Jamie, I had put an note in your comment box, of your profile. I got to thiking, maybe you wouldn't notice it there. So, i'll ask my question here. Do you have a favorite color? I noticed in your profile, you don't have your fav. colors.Unless, i over looked that part. But, let me know a.s.a.p., if you have a fav. color(S) or not. Debbie Tunnicliff. Email:[email protected]
