When I first started reading blogs, I was intrigued by swaps. Here were strangers, connected only by a love of knitting, creating treasures and sending each other wonderful packages full of delightful goodies, hand-picked with that person in mind. There seemed to be such a warm community spirit around these swaps.

Now that I have my own blog, I’ve decided to join my very first swap. I’ve signed up for the International Scarf Exchange – should be fun!
