I did it! Finally ha dthe guts to ask murbeck and she said YES! 

Of course I said yes!    We were in a few swaps together in the past but never partnered, though I was waiting (and looking forward to) for it happen, but it never did!  I was thrilled when you asked me 

Rhonda, I loved the analogy of being asked to the dance    Very cute

Yay! Now the fun part: deciding a theme and quantity!
Myy brain is about to explode form so mane ideas!

[murbeck]

LOL, MY brain is about to explode with all your ideas!      Just kidding, I am LOVING all of your ideas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maria isabel]

Murbeck and I already chose a theme, made a list of 5 things about that theme we like (by order of preference) and a Top 10 List of crafts we love. talk about idea explotion!

Perlabella and I will be swapping crochet amigurumi's! I'll be making one medium, and she two smalls.

I've actually got TWO lovely partners this round!  We planned out what to make - so it will be relatively stress-free.

[superhooker]

Wow!  tons of great swappers this round!  I hope no one thought the "Sock Hop" is too nerdy...its hard thinking of new dancing names!!!

I'm going to update the list of pairs right now, and I'll be doing feedback tomorrow.  I will put a pair on the list after I have a questionaire from BOTH partners, so if you don't see yourself on the list, maybe remind your partner to send the info!

[Jenicat]

I think it's perfectly nerdy.   

[psyche]

Ooh. I need to make this official (with knickertwist as my partner!), but my official signup will need to wait until tomorrow as right now I really should be asleep!

The title is what attracted me to click! I'm so curious now though, how did that dance get it's name? Why sock hop? Did they wear specail socks back then? I must know....

[Pinky Yarn]

yay I worked up the nerve and Jenicat is my partner!  And we both love avacados. random factoid
