Vegan Pal

Cass and I are testing interest in another Vegan Pal swap. So let us know:

1. Are you interested in doing it again?
2. Would you want it to start now, or are you swamped in other swaps and would like to wait?
3. What would you be sure to keep the same or be sure to change from last time?
4. Would you be interested in helping to host?
   

Thanks!

Hi there. As this project is over. Could I be removed from the posting list please? Thanks. =)

As of today, everyone has received their swap packages! Thanks to all of you for being such wonderful swap partners. No flakes either!!! That was a big load of my and Sarah H.'s mind; we're proud to have hosted such a successful swap. You guys all rock!!

Through the swap, I hope you've made some new friends (I know I have ) and learned a thing or two (yep, that too!). Afterall, that was the point of the whole thing.

Sarah and I are talking about hosting a vegan-magic-yarn-ball swap in the upcoming months. This is where you take a hank/skein of yarn and hand wrap it into a ball, while coiling up little treasures within. It can be done with either one type of yarn or leftovers tied together in a pleasing manner. The idea is you're supposed to knit the ball into something, revealing the surprises as you go, but most people just unwind it to get to the good stuff. =) I'll be posting on my blog when we go live with it. I'm expecting it to be March-ish.

One more thing, if you've ever wondered how Swap-bot picks swappers, I managed to get a little info by being a host. I'm sure it's random, but the list goes in one big circle. I was wondering if there was a chance that 3 or 4 or half the people completed their own circle, but it seems not. Here's our list, for the curious. Read it like this: Carla A sent to Ellie who sent to Hayley who sent to, etc, etc.

I just got a note from Canada Post that I have a package waiting for me. I think it's possibly my VeganPal package :) BUT I won't be able to get to the post office until Wednesday :(

Keep ya posted!

Update: I was able to get to the post office today! Thanks so much, Robyn!
More info here.

Thanks Rina for a great package. I loved all the items you sent and they will be put to good use. I actually received my vegan-package a couple of weeks ago, but haven't had time to post any pics before. Click here to view my vegan package.

I received my package from Sarah L in Tucson a couple of days ago. Thank you SOOOO much, Sarah! I love everything you sent! I can't wait to try the larabars and the coffee. Thank you again! I really appreciate your thoughtfulness. :)
