Winter Scarf Knit Kit Swap

Brrrrr! It's cold outside! It's a great time to relax with a cup of cocoa or coffee and knit a scarf!

PLEASE read through the rules of the swap before signing up! :) DO NOT SIGN UP IF YOU AREN'T GOING TO SEND YOUR PACKAGE!!!!!!!!

Participants in this swap will exchange a Winter Scarf Knit Kit containing:

1. Hot drink mix (at least 2 servings)- Coffee, cocoa, tea, hot cider mix, etc.
2. A mug
3. A scarf pattern
4. Knitting needles to use for the project
5. Enough yarn to complete the scarf pattern

Minimum kit value is $20

You can give your Knit Kit a winter theme, or any theme of choice...Valentine's Day, a yarn theme...whatever you like! Get creative, and have fun! Decorate a box according to your theme. Make a handmade notecard to accompany the kit. Whatever you want to do! The goal is to give your partner a warm fuzzy evening of knitting, and a warm scarf to enjoy afterwards!!

PLEASE: no cheap acrylic yarn, damaged needles, etc. Expensive yarn is not required...just use common sense. Send something that you would love to receive! Knitting needles can be used, if they are in good working condition. Package cups carefully so they arrive unbroken. Mugs made from heat-resistant unbreakable plastic can be sent instead of ceramic -- and they also weigh less than ceramic mugs (saves on postage).

Contacting your partner once assignments are made is recommended so that you know what colors they like, and if they are allergic to any natural fibers, what length scarf they want, etc.

Because of problems with non-swappers, nobody with a rating of less than 4 will be allowed to sign up for this swap.

New swappers who have not yet been rated are welcome, but are required to MESSAGE ME just to let me know that you are serious about swapping. If I have not received a message from a non-rated swapper before the sign-up deadline, they will not be allowed to swap.

Those with 2 or more no-send or problem ratings (1's and 3's) will not be allowed to join this exchange. If you feel you have been rated unfairly in the past, contact me.

Those who join this exchange and do not send a package to their swap partner will be put on a list of "Bad Swappers.''Bad swappers will be banned from any future exchanges that I coordinate!! And the list may be provided to other swap coordinators if they request it. So....if you don't plan to send....don't join this exchange!!!!!!! Play fair!

More info on the swap can be found on my blog at: www.julisjots.blogspot.com

This will help ensure that everyone receives a package. :)
