Description:

I am a big fan of Alma Stoller's zines and blog. She had pictured a yarn (included laces, ribbons, yarns, etc.) ball that she had put together a few years back. She shows an example of knitting with this selfmade yarn.

In this swap you will make a yarn and other materials "ball". Think of things like lace, ribbons, all types of yarns and other trims. Maybe some fabric scraps cut into strips. Let's use up some of the small scraps we have. Your ball should have at least 10 yards of materials and I won't put an exact number on how many different types of materials you should have but let's try to use as many as possible.

This should be fairly inexpensive to mail so I will keep it open to international players.

Take at look at this: http://almastoller.typepad.com/almastoller/2008/02/knitting-into-t.html

As it says on most other swaps, you should have at least a 4.7 and no 1's in the past 3 months.

Newbies with complete profiles welcome.

Since this should not be expensive we will each have 2 partners. That is you will send one yarn ball to 2 people.

I will review profiles and ratings and ban as needed.
