i thought it was so awesome when i logged into swap-bot to find my second swap like this was ranked #10 today in the top swaps :D

bugsmama 11/30/2011 #

this could be fun! I'm going to watch for now, see if I can refresh my crochet granny square skills and then join! :) It's been a while since I picked up my yarn and hook....

KraftyCrochet 12/ 1/2011 #

New here & interested in this swap. How do I go about it :]

KraftyCrochet 12/ 1/2011 #

Nevermind, I figured it out sorry. I dont understand the partners thing though :/

bugsmama 12/ 2/2011 #

@kraftycrochet For this swap there will be two people that you mail to. Once the partners are assigned you just look in the yellow box (to the right of the screen, it's not visible now, but will be when partners are assigned.) to see who you mail too. This means that two other people will also have you so you will end up getting two separate squares in the mail also. :) Hope that clears it up.

@anaryawe : i was thinking after the whole Christmas/Winer season was over getting to more than once a month, so if you stick around i will send out a link when the 4th swap is up, i myself am just knitting up squares in advance

Anaryawe 12/13/2011 #

Great, I'll keep an eye on them. I'm too making them in advance, but I'm silly in a way and would like to do profile-based squares. Well, maybe I'll just do a great variety from which to chose.

AmoAngelus 12/14/2011 #

I'm guessing Guage Swatchs/tension squares are also welcome so long as they fit the required size?

hydryne 12/14/2011 #

Tell me please, How many granny squares I'll send to each partners??? Just one???

principeta 12/18/2011 #

Which is this swap for?

zasa 12/19/2011 #

i would love to join you - but 6x6 might be to big for me - i would prefer a 4inch one more :)

ChantalB 12/19/2011 #

@zaza : if you want you can when the partners are assigned click view participants and contact your partners who are sending to you and ask for a 4" instead, you never know

EddyG 12/20/2011 #

oh must have missed one somewhere.
Ready for my next one though

dylannika 12/21/2011 #

Is this for a square in the Granny style or for any 6x6 inch square motif either crochet or knit?

ChantalB 12/21/2011 #

@dylannika : can be crocheted or knit, the style used is up to you, the only set thing is that it be 6" x 6"

KraftyCrochet 12/26/2011 #

@ChantalB Is the send out date going to be extended since partners havent been assigned yet? Especially with it being international?

mlookyloo1 12/30/2011 #

any color is good

EddyG 01/ 1/2012 #

Just to say I like any colour or pattern - just make it in size 3 or 4 yarn (sport weight, DK, worsted weight) no aran or chunky - this is just so it will all go together. Thank you

caatje64 01/ 3/2012 #
