It's an adorable smiley and I actually used it in context one day when I had to go offline and do laundry. *curtsies*
 Oh look!  Hadn't seen this one yet!I like that timeframe for sign-up on the Square Swap. Do you think people will really need that long, three months for 12 squares though? I dunno how fast other people might knit or crochet... Will the speedy among us be keeping vigil, waiting?    I love this one VERY much, more I think than the others. I would put this in my sig line.Look at this next set... just cracks me up how they go together...

I don't knit or crochet any more, but I just LOVE this idea, how cool. It makes me want to.

Hey Pashi, welcome!

  K, I can invite people to the party, but for 12" squares, right? Because that makes a lap robe that's 3 squares by 4 squares, rather than a baby blanket.Unless you want to ask for more than 12...? But the math is eluding me tonight... okay, I have forced the brain to cooperate. 4 x5 would be 20 squares but only 32" by 40" finished, kinda small...  |

You are right! 12" squares. We need a math person. lol! So: 1. 12 people  2. 12 12" squares  3. Any pattern-knit or crochet (no quilt squares, sorry!)  4. Sign up by Dec 31 (late joiners ok if we don't have enough?)  5. Squares due by April 30 (That's four months so three squares a month)  6. We'll decide on colors when we get a few more folk in here.  |

This is a great idea!
I know that Jess would be glad to see some of the many tubs of yarns I have go somewhere! I ran across a great sale at Michael's last year and well, being tactile... you get the idea! Bamboo... alpaca... oohhhhhh.... makes me wanna go home and just pet the skeins! I never learned how to do granny squares, but I am sure I can make something work. Would someone please be so kind to remind me later in the month? Its a busy time for us  on a calendar/fiscal year and I wouldnt want to forget!
