My favorite color is dark green primarily, but any dark jewel toned will do - Burgandy, deep blue, deep purple or combination thereof.

user4339 12/12/2006 #

black, chocolate brown and green, all greens (well not that 1980s glowy green)

dashenka 12/12/2006 #

Favourite colours are dark purple and dark pink, but also like red and blue. Should be fun!

user5215 12/12/2006 #

Greens, blues, purples, or charcoal-y grays. Can't wait!!

Queenbee 12/12/2006 #

Jaichan 12/13/2006 #

I love jewel tones, especially burgandy, dark green and purple.

Neenbug 12/13/2006 #

I love anything purple (all shades!) Blue, green, pinks, burgundy are okay too in muted shades. Think victorian shades! Easy to please so i will love anything at all.

sleepingrover2010 12/13/2006 #

My favorite color is bright purple. I also like bright yellow too. I really like these two colors together.

TerryJo 12/13/2006 #

user4534 12/14/2006 #

Love dark rich baroque colors and earthy tones (like earthy greens, blues), and also aged white, black, and muted colors. Nothing overly bright, no pinks, and pastels only if they are muted together.

user5056 12/15/2006 #

?????

When you say 2 skeins of yarn, Do you mean yarn like you use to crochet? or the kind used for needlepoint? or floss like used for cross-stitching?

user4688 12/15/2006 #

I mean for knitting.

user2471 12/16/2006 #

hmmmmmmm....so many colors and so many choices, how is a girl to decide! My color choice for this swap is blue.

mnsqb 12/16/2006 #

I prefer purples and blues in jewel tones.

user5087 12/16/2006 #

i love greens & dark reds..

user4688 12/18/2006 #

I love all kind of green.

user2626 12/19/2006 #

My favorite color changes with the hour, but I seem to be drawn to vibrant varigated sock yarns. Please no acrylics, I tend to get hivey from a chemical used in its manufacturing.

user5215 12/19/2006 #

I sent mine out today.

user4688 12/21/2006 #

Some participants didn't put their favorite color here, can you do it please because some participants are waiting.

Thank you

user4688 12/22/2006 #

Hi,

Just to let you all know that I'm going away for a couple of days so if someone try to contact me, I will answer on the 28th.

I wish you all a merry christmas and a happy swapping year.

user3814 12/22/2006 #

Sorry it took so long to post. My favorite color is pink. I also like red, blue, light green or light yellow. You can check out my blog at http:/yarn4kalei.blogspot.com for more info about me! Happy Holidays everyone!

Neenbug 12/26/2006 #

Wow! Got my package right before Christmas. Some beautiful purple yarn, notebook and pens and gorgeous earings. Thank you Shelly!!!!!

user4688 01/ 4/2007 #

Hi,

I'm very sorry to see that something happens to my first swap as a swap coordinator. First someone had her name post and just at the last time, her name changed for someone else. I don't know if the person is ok or not but she didn't answer to my email. I know who is her partner and be sure that if she doesn't receive anything, I will send her something because it was my job to check ratings and since I did it just before the due time, someone had time to go there after me. I don't know if she do that kind of thing often but be sure that she will not do something to me like this again.

user4688 01/ 4/2007 #

Dashenka, Thank you so much for the lovely package. I love everything. I can't wait to knit the sock pattern that you send me with those 2 skein of brown alpaga. I can't wait to rate you.

Neenbug 01/ 5/2007 #

Jen P, You did not list on your profile what color you wish to receive. What are your likes?

alwaysjoy 01/11/2007 #

Hi, I got the BEST package. Thank you so much. I can't even tell you how much I love that yarn.

user4688 01/12/2007 #

My package is on his way to my partner in PEI, Canada so it should be there soon since it is quebec to canada.

user2195 01/15/2007 #

mustanggirl, i answered you by email, I hope you got it...Can you let me know when you sent the package out so i know when to expect it. thanks a lot:)

Neenbug 01/17/2007 #

Jen it left today. Hope you like everything!

Jaichan 01/17/2007 #

Hi Gina! I just got your package. It made me laugh out loud because the sock yarn matches the turtleneck sweater I was wearing... exactly. My favourite colour is actually green, but I have so much green that I requested burgandy or purple. You got the exact shade perfectly. Thanks! And thanks for the rest of the goodies, too. I'm a culinary student and my hands are always dry from the soap. Keep your eyes peeled for something from me...

Cassandra 01/19/2007 #

nerdgirl: your package went out a few days ago. Let me know when you get it.

alwaysjoy 01/19/2007 #

rbl,

I sent out your package today. I am sorry it was a day late leaving... I had it wrapped and just forgot to send it and the "you are late" reminder well it did it's job ;-)

Thank you.

Neenbug 01/20/2007 #

I feel sorry for whoever "nothings" partner is. She has burned several people including my daughter. Be on the lookout for her on all your swaps. She has been known as "Mermaid", "Nothing" and now "Muse". BAN HER!!!

Queenbee 01/30/2007 #

I did not get anything from my partner, MsMartiP. She has a rep for not sending things. Along with 'nothing' she should be banned. I went all out for my partner. Now I get nothing in exchange. So very sad.

Neenbug 01/30/2007 #

Shelly - Check with your partner. Sometimes they forget or get sick. I received a package from MsMartiP and it was awesome. maybe something happened. However you are right about "nothing" she also goes by Muse, percy, mermaid and who knows what else. Her real name is Ami Doering. BEWARE!!!

sleepingrover2010 01/30/2007 #

I want to let you know that I will be sending you a thank you note via snail mail if you are my partner. I will do the rating on the site as soon as I can. Thanks

I loved my Favorite Color Swap packet. The special bag of hand-dyed yarn is just beautiful and even knitting needles. I want to learn how to knit and you have motivated me to search out a teacher or a class. Thanks.

user3814 02/ 1/2007 #

I sent out my package to Lauravee yesterday. I sent it priority mail so you should get it by Sat. My son has bronchitis and I wasn't able to get to the post office until yesterday.Please let me know when you get it. Thanks.
