Fall into Autumn Dishcloth Swap Question #6

How was your experience in the exchange? Did you enjoy the folks you met? Did you just love the cloth and goodies you received? Please share any thoughts, criticism, and things you loved!

I have had a great time with this exchange!

I sent a package to Ariel. It was fun to get to know her. We emailed quite a bit. We both detest coffee. I never find someone who feels the same way about that, but she does! I sent her a mug but I made sure not to include any coffee-flavored anything in her box.

I am being spoiled by Pal Secret. That's how her anonymous email name shows up in my in box. I am having fun getting to know her. She's friendly without giving away too much about herself. She is going on vacation but she'll be back before the official end of the swap and she'll mail a package to me then. I'll be sure to post a picture and thank her here then. In a way, I didn't want to answer this swap question #6 until then, but since you asked, I posted.

All in all, this has been a great exchange! Dishcloths are fun to make, you can possibly learn a new technique while doing it, and because they are small they don't take a long time to knit. And it's great fun to gather goodies that fit the theme and put together a package for your pal. I'd definitely join the dishcloth swap again.

Idea: I'd like the next version to be a Valentine theme. Who wouldn't like to receive a Valentine from a new knitting pal?
