Description:

BECAUSE THIS SWAP ITEM IS SO LIGHTWEIGHT, I AM MAKING THIS AVAILABLE TO US, CANADA AND OTHER INTERNATIONAL SWAPPERS.

I found the cutest pattern online for a mini-mitten ornament and thought it would be a great swap. It appears that the mittens are about 2 1/2 - 3 inches long.

1) You will send one knitted or crocheted mini-mitten ornament to one person (this should be a pair of mini-mittens).

2) You will include one extra treat (ex: candy, a craft tool, a pattern - check your pal's profile for ideas) when you send the ornament.

3) You can use any pattern you like but it should be a pair of mini-mittens, not a single mitten. The place I found the mini-mittens pattern is:

4) Sender's choice on the color of yarn used for the ornament.

5) Minimum spend before shipping - $5 (most fiber fiends have leftover yarn that will get this done without having to purchase any - I know I have a ton of sock yarn that would be perfect - so I am thinking the only real cost will be the extra treat you will include - let me know if this will be an issue for anyone and we can change the minimum if necessary).

Rules:

1) You must have a rating of 4.50 or higher.

2) No no-sends (pm me if you have one, we'll discuss it and see if you can sign up).

3) You will have at least 5 swaps completed and rated.

Let me know if you have any questions, thanks!

Would it be possible to make this for crocheted ornaments too. If so I would love to join.

I am new to swapping and would like to participate in this one. If it's not ok for me to join then go ahead and unjoin me. I just wanted to try out this swapping thing and work on some early Christmas ornaments.

Does it have to be knitted/crocheted mitten? I have someother ideas for mini mittens.

Cakers 10/14/2008 #

I think we should keep it to knitting/crocheting as sign ups end tomorrow and that's the current expectation. However, please be my guest and set up one with whatever your idea is - and do let me know, I'll sign up!

Thanks, Patty
