Let's weave a coaster!

No loom required! you can get started with some yarn, a piece of stiff cardboard and a fork!

I know it's hard as a newbie to get started with type 3 crafty swaps so I've spoken to @VivaLaDiane and am hosting this one here for you all!

You have two weeks until sign ups close and two weeks to send, but don't wait, this is a senders choice swap so grab some yarn and get started!

I just adore all the pretty weaving around right now and a woven coaster is the simplest way to start! I'd love this to continue to a series of swaps with different techniques/colours so we all end up with a nice collection of coasters.

You can create your coaster with any weaving technique and colours you choose as long as it is:

♥ 9cm x 9cm (3.5"x 3.5") ♥ Made from Yarn (wool, cotton, linen, acrylic, silk, if you'd crochet or knot with it then use it).
♥ Here is a great tutorial

(you don't need to use the modge podge in my opinion)
♥ Weaver's choice of colours

This swap IS international but our coasters will all hopefully be flat enough to travel at letter rates! As per other Newbie Helpers Swaps: Before the last date to sign up, you must have sent at least 3 mailed swaps and a full profile so that users won't have to guess what they could get for you. NO email swaps or profile comment swaps count toward the requirement.

You will include a note or a card so that your partner knows who to rate with your SB name and the name of the swap.

Any and all questions MUST be asked PRIOR to the last day to sign up. If you are removed, please don't ask why. I've detailed the specific rules.I will angel if necessary.

I am going to practice one of these before I join the swap...Me and ANY projects that involve yarn (or any variant there of)...typically do not get along. LOL

@Paige1900 sorry I just saw this comment! I totally understand, knitting is my bête noire, everyone I pick up needless it turns into a disaster!
