I bet we've all got something in the stash that we'd like to swap (Great idea of gempud's) or even give away like w4b at the last meet. Shall we give it a go?

Shall we give it a go? knitbird 30-06-2007, 17:12 That sounds good. I have a few bits in the stash to swap or donate. I'd rather someone else got some use out of it. Wheezy 30-06-2007, 17:16 I'm going to take a picture or two later and put a few bits on. gempud 30-06-2007, 18:01 The stuff I don't want anymore is this http://www.hipknits.co.uk/shop.php?crn=235&rn=871&action=show_detail but I have 4 150g skeins of it so 600g altogether....probably more about 550g minus bits I had to throw away etc. Wheezy 01-07-2007, 12:24 Here is some yarn that I would like to swap if possible. I am interested in pastel shades of double knitting please (They don't have to be full balls by the way). :o Hope they are of interest to somebody: :D This is 291g (on my kitchen scales) and I think it is 4ply. If you look back at my pictures you can see it knitted up as I did a cardigan in it (yet to be sewn up) http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/Wheezy_photos/?action=view¤t=DSCF1522.jpg This is just over 100g of Sirdar Salsa DK with merino wool http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/Wheezy_photos/?action=view¤t=DSCF1525.jpg Here we have the Hayfield Grampian DK - just over 200g http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/Wheezy_photos/?action=view¤t=DSCF1527.jpg And finally, what everyone needs - just over 180g of Hayfield Courtier Super Crimp Bri-Nylon 3 ply http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/Wheezy_photos/?action=view¤t=DSCF1528.jpg littleblue 01-07-2007, 14:00 Oooh ooh oooh!! the first one the first one. Me please me please!! What do you want in return?? Oh and the laceweight stuff of Gempuds - what do you want to swap it for??? *jumps up and down like a small child* gempud 01-07-2007, 14:34 Exciting isn't it littleblue! Not sure what I want for it...what have you got you want to get rid of? I'm a sock yarn addict...or a sucker for anything unusual. If no one wants to swap anything for it, I'm willing to flog it. I bought it for £20 and bearing in mind that maybe 30g of it is tangled so won't be included...make me an offer? Wheezy 01-07-2007, 14:54 Oooh ooh oooh!! the first one the first one. Me please me please!! What do you want in return?? Oh and the laceweight stuff of Gempuds - what do you want to swap it for??? *jumps up and down like a small child* I want....... light coloured or pastels (any shade, mixed or plain) dk. Like I said, dunt have to be a full ball. Wheezy 01-07-2007, 23:44 Also, I have about 400g Sirdar Confetti - Popcorn http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/Wheezy_photos/?action=view¤t=DSCF1349.jpg gempud 02-07-2007, 16:34 Oh my god that looks sooooo weird! What's it like to knit with? littleblue 02-07-2007, 18:16 Oh my god that looks sooooo weird! What's it like to knit with? not too bad - sometimes it can be a bit creaky but I've made a throw out of it and its very soft and warm. Might even swap something for that too so I can add it to my collection :hihi: Wheezy 02-07-2007, 22:16 not too bad - sometimes it can be a bit creaky but I've made a throw out of it and its very soft and warm. Might even swap something for that too so I can add it to my collection :hihi: Is this a definite offer littleblue, I don't like timewasters :suspect: Wheezy 02-07-2007, 22:27 Oh my god that looks sooooo weird! What's it like to knit with? Like lidlblue says, I started on a hooded jacket for my little girl but it was all knit and got shoved to one side after a while, now I've lost interest in it. Nice enough to knit with though.
