Description:

So you like knitting but don't have anybody to send to? This swap would be perfect for you then! I welcome all knitters, newbies and pro's! This is the perfect time to show off your skills! The style/type/ is sender's choice, but make sure it's a good quality scarf, and make sure that you contact your partner to get the length they want.

This swap is open for newbies with a complete profile. How ever I will be checking for flaker's. This swap will be international and I also will put it so you have 1 partner. Im going to have a long enough time period for you to make the scarf. Now the flip side to this swap is you must include a surprise! It needs to be new, and I am putting a $5 limit on the surprise. It can be a couple of your favorite skeins of yarn, or a novel, or what ever you can think of! But make sure its something your partner would like!

OMG I joined the last one way back when and I got flaked on! :( I'd love to join, but w/newbies I'm nervous. I'll watch it though! :) I LOVE knitting!

I am finding that I'm getting flaked on more by established swappers than newbies...

Obstminkerl 12/ 3/2009 #

Same here, GoingTwinsane. In every swap I got flaked it was an establlished swapper :-(

Well I can assure you that I am being careful with whom I let join. And if anybody does get flaked on, I will gladly angel them a package.

I've signed up. I'm a newbie to swapbot but have participated in and hosted plenty of swaps over the years. It's nice to do a knitting one for a change.

I'm going to go ahead and post my preference. I'd like a wide scarf that is fairly long. OR a Snood is a great alternative for me! Basically I like to wrap the scarf partly over my head to keep out the bitter cold. I love the color blue and I often wear autumn colors and earth tones. Soft and cozy is my favorite. I love dark chocolate. I spend ALOT of time at an ice rink year round. I love to knit so I'm pretty excited about this swap.

Sounds a great swap but I can't knit very fast so have fun with it!

I'm sooo excited about this one!!! I'd love a medium width LOOOONG scarf!!! I love how they look with a nice "pea-coat" but I've never had one... and I spend so much time knitting things for other people, that I don't ever get to making one for myself...

black or brown tones would be PERFECT!!!!

cinderella730 12/15/2009 #

sorry, I forgot to add DARK PURPLE to that...
LOL

This sounds like fun. Knitter's choice you say? I can start now and get a decent length. Color will be a surprise or else I'll never get it done in time.

KawaiiNekomini 12/19/2009 #

Would anybody be against the idea of extending the deadline to give us knitters time to make the scarf?

patabear 12/21/2009 #

I'm all in for extending the date

KawaiiNekomini 12/24/2009 #

I extended the send by date to Jan 31st. That should be plenty of time to finish a scarf.

jasminie 12/27/2009 #

i'm a noob. and completely excited about this!

KawaiiNekomini 01/ 1/2010 #

Wow! I wasn't expecting so many sign ups!! Thanks! Make sure to contact your partners to find out how long they want their scarf! Color and style of the scarf is knitter's choice.

KawaiiNekomini 01/22/2010 #

I am sending my package later next week sometime! Yay!
