Thanks to @bobogrl for suggesting this swap :) I have never made or used plarn before so it's new territory for me :) For this one, you must make plarn and use it to crochet an item for your partner. You can find a tutorial on how to make plarn here, and here is a directory of patterns using plarn. However of course you are not limited to these, you may crochet any item you like using your plarn. Normal rules apply, the group is regularly checked to make sure no flakers are among us :) xxxx

I'm going to attempt to make something before partners are assigned; I want to make sure I can make something worth swapping. :)

I've never worked with plarn before, but since there's so much time to do this in, I think I can have it worked out and make something really nice. Maybe I'll even make myself a lunch bag so I don't keep taking my lunch to work in a plastic grocery bag...except I'd be taking it in several plastic grocery bags...but you know what I mean! So excited!

Quick question - does the item have to be entirely plarn or can you mix other yarns or fibers with it for color?

lunarwillow 04/27/2011 #

yes, you can mix yarn in if you like, feel free to take the basic requirement of using plarn and interpret it however you please to make a nice item for your partner :) x

I just inherited a great pile of trash bags from work (they were about to get thrown away). I'm going to see if these will work asking with the shopping bags!
