A list of the swaps to join. 

Patterns you may want to try 

Our pictures Want to see what we made?  

Read before signing up please. 

1. Names will be added until the swap is full which means some will be joining after the start of the swap. .

2. A list will be e-mailed to you with all  the names and addresses of everyone on the list. 

Up dates; names added, e-mail change, home address change and so on will be sent out as they come in. 

3. You make each member the number of  squares required in your swap while following any other directions. ie. knitting or crochet, color and size will be followed. 

 Your choice of yarns (washable would be nice), the  pattern you make is of your choice,  choice of colors will be according to the swap exchange you're in. Most swaps are your choice of knitting or crochet. 

4. Mail  your squares to each person until you've completed them all. . Example: If your sending 2 each to 34 people The total of all squares you will be receiving in the mail are 68. Remember to make yourself  the number of squares in your swap  

You'll receive enough squares to make a friendship afghan of about 5 ½ foot square. Depending on the way you're connecting the squares together. (8 squares x 8"s = 64 inches) What you do with the afghan is up to you. Keep it or give it away. The choice is yours.

 5.     I know in the past we had a person or two who didn't do their part. That's why I've added one extra rule. 

If for some reason you have to drop out of the swap but have already received squares, you'll need to send those squares back to the person who mailed them. This protects the person who mailed out their squares.

     As an added surprise, when mailing out your squares it would be wonderful to add a short note telling just a bit about yourself. Married, where you're living, what other crafts you do, kids, ages, etc. It's great to know a little about the person who put their hearts into what you'll be holding in your hands while putting the squares together. It will truly become your favorite afghan.

Remember... Please don't join another swap until you've finished the swap you're in.

About the postage...

robin@terwilligerinsurance.com says Shirley, I mailed out square to 5 people the other day.  I just used a big envelope and the ones within the US cost 80 cents each.  I sent one to Canada which cost $1.35.  I also had to fill out a customs slip for the one leaving the US so I took some extras home with me so I could fill them out before I go to the post office next time.
