Description:

I was looking at these gorgeous crochet garlands on the flicker, and thought I want one, so why not to have a swap.

They are fun for decorating your home at any time - everyday, birthdays,parties other holidays. For this swap you will have two partners, so you will have to crochet 2 garlands(1 for each partner). Each garland must be 10 feet(3 meters) long and have at least 10 motifs - stars, flowers, hearts,birds, granny squares, and similar - can be one type or a mixture - can be one color and many. Don't forget to leave ends without motifs for tying it.

One important requirement for this swap is - you can use only cotton or other natural fiber yarn like wool, soy, bamboo, linen, etc. If someone sends you acrylic yarn made one, please ask them to resend or give them rating of 3.

Here are a few free tutorials:

There are many free tutorials on ravelry.com too, but you do have to register before you can access them.

You have to have at least 5 type 3 swaps and they must be rated well. No recent 1s or 3s. I will be checking profiles.

This must be very light to send, so I will make it international. But if there will be enough interest, I could organize US one too and anyone feel free to organize your regional ones too. Happy swapping!

Ehm, just to straighten it up: you can make at least ten motives of any kind and any color as long as it is made with cotton/natural fiber yarn?

Exactly! I am so glad you joined, Mieke.

What should be the response: any time??

And I am happy with the swap. :)
