Ongoing Yarn Swap - anyone interested

« on: September 04, 2006 03:44:12 AM »

Is anyone interested in an Ongoing Yarn Swap?

Basically it would work the same way as the ongoing fabric swap.

Person A posts pictures of their yarn (at least 4-6 different balls). Person B claims one of those balls of yarn and posts pics of their yarn. Person C claims one of Person B's balls of yarn & posts pics of their yarn and so on.

I have only just finished my first swap so can't organize it, but I would love to take part. I have lots of funky yarn needing a new home.

I'd be interested also. I have 9 skeins of SRK Molash, color 1000 plus a coordinating skein of SRK Sari that I would be interested in swapping for some natural fiber yarn.

Although, I wonder if this would be better held in the trading section of Crafster?

Update, I just swapped this yarn so it is no longer available. Good luck guys!

Will you only be allowed to swap a single ball at a time, or will it be like some of the other ongoing swaps where each person gets a certain number of claims?

Chuck Norris does not knit. He bangs the table, and the shockwaves force the yarn to create clothing.

I'd love to do this...I'll go threw the stash tomorrow. I've never done one of these so I'll just follow suit. Can't wait!

I think it would work the same way as the ongoing fabric swap:

3 swaps for Friends of Craftster
2 swaps for non Friends of Craftster
1 swap for newbies

We still need to find someone to organise it - as I have only done one swap.

Any volunteers?
