The Hand Dyed Yarn Swap: one of three no more

one of three no more

This is the beautiful Yarn that I received from Kate from Canada. My hand dye yarn is on its way to sunny California! But alas, I won't be participating in the next step because it is not fair to the great participants who meet deadlines. I kinda thought I might step on my foot with this one. The yarns are all beautiful and Kate your yarn will be a wonderful pair of yummy socks for me!! If I finish them while the blog is still open to me I will post pics here. But of course they will be posted on http://www.knitkharma.com/ Live, laugh and love your knitting!!

How do I sign up for Round 4?

Sign-ups are closed for Round 4.

Participants this round: 18

Swap is open to residents of the US and Canada. International participants will be accepted as long as I find pals willing or wanting an international pal. We had a couple of international participants last time around that worked out really well so we'll probably find pals for everyone.

To sign up, send your questionnaire and answers to swappingyarn@gmail.com. You will get an invite to the blog so that you can post to it once you are accepted into the swap.

Details for Round 4 of the Hand Dyed Yarn Swap!

1. The fourth round of this swap is for a skein of hand-dyed sock yarn and a picture that inspired you to dye it.
2. You must dye the yarn yourself specifically for your assigned pal.
3. The yarn must be enough to knit an adult sized pair of socks.
4. I may or may not assign pairs this round. I'm going to post a poll to see how people liked that idea last round. Assigning pairs means that you will send yarn to the person that is sending yarn to you.
5. You may send other goodies to your pal along with the yarn but you are only required to send yarn appropriate for the current round of this swap as well as the picture/postcard that inspired you.
6. You must be able to take and post digital pictures and you must post a picture of your yarn on this blog within a week of receiving it. Seeing other dyers creations is one of the best things about this swap so please, please post pictures of what you receive.
7. You must completely fill out the questionnaire and give your swap pal some guidance. You will not be assigned a partner if you do not complete the questionnaire.
