Description:

Thanks to @mindy for the suggestion, I had never even heard of freeform crochet before! However when I did a bit of reading, I started remembering all the yarns I have sitting around, fluffy ones and eyelash ones and chunky ones....and I am now officially excited!! So for this swap, you will make your partner a freeform crochet scarf. A tutorial can be found here . Colours, yarns, and wherever your hook takes you is of course totally sender's choice. Please don't rate your partner on whether you LOVE what you receive, since this is obviously going to be quite a subjective swap :) A freeform scarf, nicely made of course, gets a 5.

So please join up and set your hook and your imagination free!!

Normal rules apply, I am sweeping group members on a regular basis so swap with confidence xxx

OMG!!!! I think I fell in love with a new way to crochet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gorgeous! I'm watching for now, this kind of intimidates me. Anyone else?

I'd be more likely to join if there was more time to make the scarf.

Please ignore my comment above, I'm just tired.

LOL @mindy :) I thought I had made it a long enough time, sorry :( Let me know if you want me to make it a bit longer, since this was your swap :) @HeatherD I agree, it does feel a bit intimidating, but I LOVE a challenge. Plus it kind of reminds me of Zentangling, which I am in love with at the moment :)

@mindy I've changed the date :)

HeatherD 04/17/2011 #

I haven't tried Zentangling yet. I'll sift through my yarn stash today to see if I become inspired. :)

I want to give this a whirl...im am an extreme perfectionist, this ous going to be a huge challenge for me!

I tend to be a bit of a perfectionist myself. SOOO, I will try it on my own for myself to see if I can let go of the pattern crocheting. When I feel comfortable, I will join. I fear it will be a challenge.

I have wanted to try this for so long! I'm going to look through my stash right now. I'm so excited--and I agree, it sounds a bit like fiber zentangling, and also a challenge!!
