Description:

A knitter can never have enough accessories! You know, those things like stitch markers/holders, tape measurers, cable needles, gage gizmos, scissors...the options are truly endless! I have lots of them but many times find myself searching everywhere when I need something. They either "grow legs" and run away or they are in a project bag on a wip. Be nice to have a set for every project, wouldn't it?

Items can be "gently used", but please send things that are in good condition or usuable if not new. You will have 1 swap partner. Have fun filling up a box, bag or container of some sort with an assortment of knitting goodies for your partner. Contents should be around $20 US before mailing/shipping costs.

New swappers can join in too. It makes me a little nervous, but I remember when I was "new" and wanting to participate, so I'm going to give everyone a chance. Please don't disappoint everyone and spoil the fun by not sending your partner something! Swappers with a rating of 4.3 WILL be banned from the swap!

Oh I want to join! There is something I would really need!!

Mimiwonton 02/10/2007 #

It might be fun to leave some hints or suggestions about what you would like to receive or things you need! I know I never seem to be able to find enough stitch markers and my tape measure "hides" from me all the time!

This is a fabulous idea! I just live knitting supplies/notions. I never seem to have enough stitch markers or point protectors or tapestry needles. What fun!

Gosh I would love to sign up, but there are two that I am joined to that end at the same time and I do not want to be running around like a chicken.

Perhaps next time!

Its a great idea!

I can't do this right now, but I'd be interested at a later date. Perhaps round 2 at the end of March?

user3051 02/28/2007 #

cause i am on a swapping spree....

lemme see...my hints to be dropped ever so subtly are --

my tape measure done gone far far away,

my local shop only carries dpns in US 6, 8 & 10 1/2

one of my #5 long knitting needles broke boo hoo

i could use some cable holders

I need something to carry stitch markers IN (if it were LIME GREEN i'd swoon)

my daughter broke my folding scissors

i could really utilize some spools

gauge doohicky? me no have one of those

AND I will spoil my swap buddy if they list what they need/want

ChefSheela 03/ 1/2007 #

Help! I'm in need of a tape measure. As for anything else, surprise me!

ChefSheela 03/ 1/2007 #

Oh! and size 8 needles!

user4719 03/ 1/2007 #

Hi! I could use size 6 straight needles and stich markers with something to hold them in. I, too, would love to be suprised by anything else you send!

user6598 03/ 1/2007 #

I just wanted to say hi to everyone! This is my first on SwapBot and I am super excited. Thanks for taking newbies!!

Oh, what could I use, what could I use.....

A knitter can never have too many tape measures Needle gauge is always helpful

Eh, just put it what you like! I am interested to see what others find "essential"!

Off to spoil.....

Hey, YArN KNiTa - I just mailed your package today. They said you should have it by Tuesday. Guess what? You ARE getting a needle gauge but I'm not telling what else you're getting. But I'm sure you'll have fun with everything!

Ta ta!

Hi Louise,

I mailed out your package today. Sorry for doing it on the very last day to mail out. But since I have started swapping I seem to alway send my packages out the last minute. I'll get better. I hope you like everything and also need them desparately.
