Description:

I suposse that all knitters love to recieve some little things that make their days. So, I will try to put some goodies and yarn together.

For this swap you will have to send:

  • 2 skeins of yarn. (at least 200 grms. total). They could be the same color or different colors. Plase send yarn you would love to receive. Dont send junk. Check youre partners profile to see allergies. You can say in the comment section if you have any allergies or color fiber preferences.PLEASE WRITE IN THE COMMENT SECTION YOUR FIBER PREFERENCES, COLORS OR ALLERGIES TO LET YOUR PARTNER KNOW.

  • Craft Magazine. It could be knitting magazine, partner´s profile magazine or a general craft magazine. English language its not a requirement, because its an inspiration item and because its an international swap, so there are countries that dont have english language.(It doesn´t have to be an expensive magazine)

  • 2 Knitting items. They could be needles, stitch markers, scisors, stitch holders, needle case,buttons, etc.

  • Hot drink and goodies mix. They could be a mix of tea bags, hot chocolate, coffea, cookies, candys, etc.

  • One handmade item. I think that its a good detail to receive some gift made for our partners with their own hands. Its a way to bring love.

  • A surprise. Feel free to send whatever you think your partners will love.

Its a treasure, so please, send items you would like to receive.Check youre partner´s profile and surprise her!. I want that all of you have youre packages, so I will be very exigent with the requirements. Requirements: - International. - No newbies (sorry, its my first knitting admin.) - Rating 4.8 or higher - No "no sends". - At least 10 hearts.

I can not angel packages, so I will have to ban swapers that are not according with requirements. I hope that this many requirements helps swappers to be secure and to put their best effort to give beautiful swap gifts to their partners.

Have a cozy, fun swap! =))

What a great idea for a swap!

Colors: It's easier to list what I don't like - pastels, yellow, orange and not a big fan of purple.

I adore hand-painted/variegated stuff!

Fibers: Prefer natural fibers. I'm completely over (and over-stashed) with novelty stuff!

Allergies: none! I love hot chocolate, especially interesting flavors.

LOVELY! This is my kind of swap really! COLOURS: I don't like pastels. I love dark colours and fall colours. I love all kinds of yarn- sock yarn being my favourite since I almost exclusively make socks. :) I can't really use novelty yarns in my projects. No allergies, but I am vegetarian who is mad for all sorts of hot drinks, especialy cocoa and chai.

Wow! Many people in the first day of the swap!! Im very happy! I wouldn´t like to say this, but I have to.... There are few swappers that are not according to the swap requirements... I won´t ban anyone still the sign up date ends, because youre profiles could change. Anyway, if you have serious intention to send your packages and probe that you are a good swapper send me a message and I will see what could I do for you. I could be flexible with "hearts" requirement, but Im afraid that its difficult with "zero no sent" requirements (1 rated) because I dont want to any swaper flakes and dont send the package to her partner. I hope you could understand me...its for everyone benefits. If its your case, and you have some post office receipt that probe that probe that you sent your package...email me... Im happy with many people in the swap and I hope you will enjoy It!!

PD: Please, dont forget to comment youre preferences!

Winnie 12/ 5/2007 #

Well, my preferences: - I prefer natural fibers..Im not allergic. - I like most of colors,and I like hand dyed yarn too. I will write some I dont like much: pastels. I love chocolate, tea, loose, leaf tea, flavored tea, candyes,etc, so Im easy to please =))

I hope it helps! =))

I love knitting swaps. It keeps me busy. I like most colors. My faves are in the red and blue family. I also like earth tones. I like natural fibers if possible. I like all kinds of hot drinks and would like to try some new flavors. I am not into flavored coffee however. I like mine straight!! I could really use some cool stitch markers. I get most of the knitting mags, but not all. Email me to check if possible.

SadieGunSlinger 12/19/2007 #

Sorry I had to drop from the swap- I have a family emergency and I have no idea what's going on in th enext few weeks..... :( Bummer, I really wanted to be part of this one.

geekphd 12/25/2007 #

I prefer natural fibers and if pastels, then hand-dyed so that there's an irregular effect (the unvaried pastels get a bit wearisome). I'm a beginning/intermediate knitter, so I'd like it if my magazine had some easy projects that wouldn't send me running for help. :)

Winnie 12/28/2007 #

NadKnitBlog... Dont you worry, family first of all... I would like you were in, but I hope I can open another swap soon! =)) Take care and good luck. Winnie

This isn't my first swap, I have the required hearts, but this is my first Swap-Bot knitting swap (NOT my first knitting swap). I hope that I'll be allowed to stay in!

My preferances are for natural fibers and/or natural blends.

Colors: nothing dull or, anything else is great!

Yarn weight: Surprise me!

Knitting Items: stitch markers, dbl pt needles, needle cases, surprise me!

Magazine: Surprise me!

I am sooooooooooooo looking forword to this swap.

Wow I love this swap. I am new to knitting but have become addicted. I would love anything bright. No allergies except nuts(peanuts are ok) Thanks and happy new year.

ellyB 01/ 1/2008 #

I would love some lavander or lilac color if possible and I prefer soft yarns because I have itching issues with 100% wool. No real allergies though. Happy new year to all

Greetings,

Very lovely swap so far!

I would love earth tones and jewel tones, any weight, nice soft natural fibers. Not fond of acrylics or neon colors. I'm an advanced beginner, learning to read a real pattern and make neat fun stitches.

Starting a dish of stitch markers and expanding my circular needle selection. Love chocolate.

Thanks, Bryanna
