Welcome! I hope you join my swap!

EDITED!! June 25th--- After looking for patterns of animal fridgies and not finding a very big selection, I have decided to change this from just animals to any kind of fridgie you would like to make. This will broaden the selection of patterns. I hope everyone that has signed up is ok with this. Remember you can still do animals or you can do anything else!!

This swap is for a crocheted or knitted fridgie. This will be senders choice, but you can take a peak at your partners profile to see what they like or don't like. I know I wouldn't want to get a spider fridgie..lol You will have 3 partners, and you will make each partner 2 different fridgies, so you'll be making 6 fridgies all together..This doesn't take alot of time to make and they are small, but keep them about 2 inches or bigger. Make sure you put a magnet on the back. You can make the same for each partner or make them all different, but make sure each partner gets 2 different fridgies. You can use whatever type of yarn you would like, and embellish how you like.Add a little note to your partner, so they can rate easier. And remember this is senders choice!! If you get a fridgie you don't like you don't rate down, you still rate it a 5.

I'm giving an entire month to get them done, so nobody better flake!!!! I will angel if needed, but let's all get them done so I won't have to!!

I made this an international swap, because the postage shouldn't be too much more then sending a couple page letter.

Experienced swappers - no ratings below 4.9, with no 1's or 3's in the last 6 months.

Newbies are welcome to join, but you must have a well filled out profile, and have completed at least 5 swaps with perfect ratings.

I will be checking profiles and past ratings. Please follow the rules or you will be kicked out of this swap.

Can you recommend some places to find good patterns for cute fridgies? I'll search myself, but I thought you might know some brilliant ones to get us started.

I haven't yet figured out how to put links on here, but you can go to http://www.crochetpatterncentral.com, http://allcrafts.net/crochet/fridgies.htm, http://www.mycrochetsite.com/fridgies.html, there is a few to get anyone started that may not know where to go. Those are for crochet ones. I didn't have any luck finding sites for knitting them, so if anyone knows of any please post them!! Thanks!!!

That was me being late. They are sent now though. I didn't find any patterns I liked , which delayed me, but then I made my own instead. I posted the patterns here if you would like to see them --> http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=412330 (Don't look if you are my partner and want a surprise)
