Sock Monkey/ Sock Critter Swap (sendout 03/31)

[yackyjan]

Want to make sure I understand before I sign up.  This is my first swap.

Does "You will be crafting 1 large (Sock Monkey or Critter), 1 medium (outfit or accessories) 1 small (6 points) for your partner around what she/he likes." mean that I make one large sock monkey with an outfit and/or accessories and something sock monkey related to go with it?

How are partners picked?

I resent in my theme picks....after seeing everyone elses and one my friend said she would have picked....I had to change.

Me too! I submitted my questionary before I read this thread
my 5 themes are dogs, cats, bunnies, bear and monkeys.
oh well! at least I will have fun with the themes from my partner right? haha

It's not too late to change your questionaire, just send an update to the organizer. I hope we don't crazy make her with all our changes! But we'll have such an awesome swap even if we do  .

yackyjan, you got it. That's exactly right. Though you can agree with your partner to change things slightly, like you might want more extras or send two outfits instead of something small or you might want supplies instead of the med and the small... that's between partners though it shouldn't vary too much from the original theme. And the organizer chooses partners based on what we all write in our questionaires, that's why it's important to write enough detail for her to figure it all out.

Now I think the few of us who are nakie munky lusting might have to have a twisted sock monkey-along and show our fancy pants creations to each other as we go! I'd be so thrilled to see what y'all could come up with. If we haven't satiated our love of teh sock by the end of this swap let's talk...

I agree.... like maybe we can just do a crazy themed sock monkey this time and get everyone interested together for an adult themed sock monkey swap  haha that sounds hilarious!!!

I'm soooooo excited.  I've been looking at sock monkey tutorials and thinking about sock selection.  This is going to be great fun.
