Description:

Happy Valentine's Day! Lets swap yarn and goodies for Valentine's Day! A Magic Yarn Ball is a ball of yarn with surprises wrapped inside as you wind the yarn into a ball.

This swap will be for one skein of LYS quality yarn with at LEAST 10 items related to Valentine's Day, knitting, crocheting and crafts wrapped inside. You should spend at LEAST $20 before shipping on this swap.

Ideas include:

  • Beads
  • Stitch Markers
  • Chocolate (package safely, as to not ruin the yarn!)
  • Embellishments
  • stuffie hearts and/or flowers
  • miniatures
  • Profile-based goodies

Swappers MUST have a rating no lower that 4.9 and NO (and I mean NO) no-sends within the past 3 months. You must have at LEAST 5 snail mail swaps under your belt that are NOT postcards. Sorry Newbies. If it is clear you have not read the description, I will delete you from the swap.

If you are interested in this swap and don't meet the requirements, are a newbie, etc, please contact me directly and perhaps we can set up a private swap. :)

This is an international swap, because its fun to receive mail from overseas! You do not need to tailor every item to your partner's profile, but a few special somethings are always nice! So, stat shopping/gathering items now! If you have allergies or aversions to certain types of fiber, please post it below. Partners, please take this into consideration when purchasing.

If you want hearts, put heart into your item! YOU MUST RATE FOR THIS SWAP. I stalk non-raters.

This sounds wonderful. I have never seen a magic yarn ball and I need to know what "LYS" quality yarn is? I'd love to join but will wait for info. Thanks, Joan

telizas told me it means "local yarn store" quality yarn. not your average yarn you can find at micheals or ac moores. hope that helps :)

Not only do we not have a "LYS" in our town - we don't even have Red Heart at Wal-Mart. A trip to Michael's or Hobby Lobby in one of the surrounding towns is the best I can do. So I guess I that leaves me out. Thanks for the info LeeLee. Joan

For those without a LYS I am sure that it counts to purchase on the internet. I have to get my yarn that way and have gotten some really great natural yarns.
