New Swappers! WELCOME!!!

This is the second step of registration- and one of the more important ones- the agreement form.  Please read this page carefully, and complete the step at the bottom.

I agree to the following guidelines:
  • Send a package worth a minimum of $30
  • Package must include at least 1 skein of NEW malabrigo
  • The Malabrigo should be something that your partner wants- i.e. colors/weight
  • The Malabrigo may be from your stash if it is something your partner wants (i.e. color/weight)
  • You may include other brands of yarn, but your package MUST include malabrigo
  • Domestic packages (both sender & reciever in the US) must include delivery confirmation- and the number MUST be posted in the "It's Sent" thread
  • All question threads must be answered in a timely fashion (within 1 week of being posted)- threads will be marked "Q#: Question"
  • You must check in weekly on the "Weekly Check in" thread.  The thread will be posted on Friday, and you must post by Tuesday.
  • You must keep in mind you partner's preferences when choosing goodies for their package.  i.e. don't send smelly lotion to someone allergic to artificial scents.
  • The package should include needles & other notions/pattern that your partner wants/likes/needs.
Please note- this is a very "active" swap, if you are not interested in making friends with your fellow swappers, this may not be the swap for you.  We expect a lot of participation from our members.

If you agree to all of the statements above, please comment with your Ravelry ID & your favorite fall/winter activity.

I really have to choose only one! Well, if you twisted my arm, I'd have to say Christmas. I collect snowmen so and love to put them all over the house and I love to decorate the tree.(hate taking it down)

My favourite fall/winter activity...hmmm, that's a toughie. If I can only pick one, then I'd say touring the neighbourhood looking at the over-the-top Christmas light displays. :-0

I agree! I'm excited to join!

I love anything to do with the cool fall weather, since I'm a recent transplant from FL! I love wearing jackets and scarves, pumpkins (all of those pottery barn "fall harvest" catalog/store spreads make me drool), ... and of course, anything to do with the good food of the seasons!

Tricia said...

I agree!

My favorite fall ritual is baking fall foods once it has cooled down enough to use the oven: apple crisp, pumpkin bread, etc.

W00t! I am so excited - my first swap!

November is my favorite month because it's my birth month and it has Thanksgiving in it. I hate that as I've gotten older, my birthday gets celebrated less - so I tend to splurge on me a little!

Karen said...

YAy! Agree! My favorite winter activity is eating winter food. Like stew and hot chocolate.

Agreed! First swap... sounds like fun. :-)

turotts said...

Oops! I agree and turotts is my Ravelry handle as well.

Theresa said...

I agree!

My favorite fall/winter activity is eating! Thanksgiving and Christmas food is the best. Of course, knitting is a close second. It stays hot where I live most of the year, so it is nice when the weather cools down to pull out the wool!

debjac said...

I agree - my first swap so I love all the direction.

My favorite winter thing? Shopping for the perfect gift for those on my list then wrapping them in paper and bows so the recipient doesn't want to mess up packaging ;-)
