Description:
For this swap you will make your partner 1 amigurumi creature. This is senders choice, and please, only well made pieces to be sent out - send something that you would be really pleased to receive :-) Please note that knitted creatures are also welcome although amigurumi strictly speaking is crochet... I've seen some fantastic little knitted beings :-) As postage costs are SO ludicrous at the moment, feel free to make a tiny creature if you want... Some ideas and free patterns are here http://freeamigurumipatterns.blogspot.com/ and a definition / description of amigurumi is here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amigurumi Please don't join if this is your first ever attempt at crocheting or knitting a creature! Due to flakers on another swap I hosted I'm going to set the minimum rating at 5.0. However, newbies experienced in amigurumi are welcome - we've all got to start somewhere... :-) Please do pm me if you want to join and have a lower rating that is unjust... You have one month from sign-up deadline to sending out :-)

Do knitted amigurumi count?

vickerypokery 06/29/2011 #

@sagesparrow yes, absolutely, I've amended the swap to include knitted ami's :-)

There's no possibility for newbie's to join? Amigurumi's are so much fun to make and receive :-)

sagesparrow 06/29/2011 #

Yes, that's my question too, can an unrated newbie join?

I just started swap-bot and so I'm a newbie, is there any way I can participate?

crochethorse 07/18/2011 #

Never mind, Just read the rest, I guess I forgot about that paart on there :P I am planning on joining, I just want 2 find a pattern on ravelry or something.

Is it ok if we send the amigurumi without stuffing (I can adapt a button or something to make it easy to stuff if the person I'm assigned to can't sew by himself/herself)? D: Shipping costs for stuffed animals here are really costly, they vary according to their size instead of height only.

When are partners going to be assigned?
