Thank you to @phillipska81 for letting me do a USA version of her international swap

If you’re anything like me when it comes to crocheting, you have patterns that you’ve printed off or copied from books. Then when you're looking through them, you decide that it's probably not anything you'll make

So, for this swap we will send our partner 2 patterns from our stash. These should be clean patterns, that are clearly visible and readable (i.e. not dirty, wrinkled, or stained pages). They should be computer printed or photocopies with a photo of the item. NO HANDWRITTEN PATTERNS. If it's something that is current on yarn labels or in chain stores like Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Joann's, Michael's then no, these patterns are not acceptable - BUT if they are patterns that are no longer in circulation from the labels or the stores, then yes they acceptable. If they are from a local store that is not a chain, then yes, these are acceptable. Senders choice. My plan is to host this swap either monthly or every other month, so if you get a pattern you can't use you can pass it on in the next swap.

IMPORTANT - on the back of pattern print your name/swap-bot id IN PENCIL. This is so you don't receive the pattern back in future swaps. Do this even if you are passing on a pattern that someone else is passing on too. By using pencil, the name(s) can be erased by the person who decides to keep the pattern(s)

Newbies welcomed, with a well filled out profile (I DO CHECK AND WILL BAN). Because of delivery issues, multi-profiler/flaker concerns, and site policies I require real names. If you join a swap of mine with a fake name or no last name, you will be banned from the swap and asked to fix it for future swaps

No recent/unexplained low ratings and you must check into swap-bot within 3 days of partners being assigned. PLEASE check out my profile page and read the "About Swaps I Host" section for an in-depth explaination of my swap rules.

Also ~ I live in "Boonyville" Michigan and sometimes our internet connection isn't very good. This is especially true when it rains & in the winter months. I have been told that swap hosts have 7 days after the sign up date to assign partners. So please be patient, partners will get assigned and if needed I will extend the send date

If you know of a bad swapper signed up for this swap, I appreciate being informed, but please DO NOT post to the comment section! Send me a PM and I will deal with it that way.

If you are a knitter and would like to do your own version, go right ahead.

can they be patterns you pick up or ones off yarn?

@bluecrayons - If it's something that is current in chain stores like Walmart, Hobby Lobby, Joann's, Michael's then no - BUT if they are patterns that are no longer in circulation then yes. If they are from a local store that is not a chain, then yes.

I'm sorry for the delay in posting partners.

My daughter's boyfriend was scheduled to have knee replacement surgery after Labor Day (veteran who was blown up). There was a cancellation this week so they moved his surgery up. I have been helping with taking and picking up his daughter and my grandson from school and such
