Description: | |
Almost all of us have some yarn lying around which we never use because we don't like the color, texture, fiber, etc. We consider it "ugly". While you think its ugly, someone else may find it beautiful. By signing up for this swap, you agree that you may receive "ugly" yarn in return. There is no guarantee you will find it beautiful. Any type of yarn is okay to send - Acrylic, Cotton, Nylon, Rayon, Wool, Fun Fur, etc. All yarn is fair game in this swap. You will have 2 partners and send them between 8 and 10 ounces of yarn. You should send at least one full skein, and then you can also send partial skeins. Information on postage costs: As long as you don't go over 13 ounces (including the envelope), the maximum first class postage rate will be $3.17. When you go over 13 ounces, the post office rate jumps to $4.60 for priority mail. I am just trying to figure out the most yarn for the least amount of postage for you. :) You can always add extra yarn if you would like. But be sure and take your package to the post office to be weighed for mailing. Please do NOT sign up if you are a yarn snob and dislike acrylic or specialty yarns. ONE EXCEPTION to the rule: Allergies. If you are allergic to certain fibers, please list this in the comments below so that your partner can take that into account. I never tell anyone how to rate, but because "ugly" is a point of view, a "5" should be in order as long as you receive your yarn, even if it turns out to be truly ugly. This fine print: This swap is open to the US only due to postage costs. This swap is for swappers with a rating of 4.9 or higher, at least 3 rated swaps (mailed swaps), and no swaps outstanding more than 5 days at the close of the signup period. If you see that there are questionable swappers signed up for this swap, please let me know. Questions, comments, to get a quicker response, please use the contact link next to my user name above. |
