Description:

We will make a mini knitting basket/bag/box…. with yarn balls and a knitting/crocheting piece in progress.

What I have is a very old wish to make my own doll house and what I have is a very large box with very much stuff to fill my future doll house. I'm bursting with ideas to make lots of things myself (I do not buy the official doll house inventory, too expensive and killing creativity). The first idea I want to share with you in swap bot is making a piece of knitting or crocheting, with yarn balls, the basket/bag/box is not a part of this swap. I made the balls myself (not the basket) and described it for you in middle scale, +/- 1: 12. After signing up you will receive a personal email from me with instructions and pictures. It is not necessary to knit or crochet a lot, it’s a very tiny piece we want to show with the yarn, so one immediately recognizes what’s it all about. My advise is to make it more or less in the same scale (balls are less than 2 cm), this is the first time, with some experience you can make it yourself exactly how you want it.

The example above is a picture of the examples I made for this swap. The basket on the image is too small for the balls I made. You need thin yarn, wool or something that looks like wool, or embroidery thread. Personally, I should not take slippery yarn, that's too hard to get nice with a real look. We will make 10 different balls, some “in the basket”, some others for another place near the work in progress, otherwise it is not credible. As far as it concerns me: you do not have to use 10 different colours, it can be one color or a few………..Name your preference below the swap The basket / bag / box is not a part of this swap, perhaps another swap…. If you have an idea and want to send something to your partner, that’s ok, IT’S NO MUST for rating. If you have questions, do not hesitate. People who are in crocheting: it is not very difficult to crochet a basket with something like raffia.

I want all the balls in the same color: red or blue or grey or pink, senders choice.
