I spent a couple hours yesterday evening and very early this morning getting packages for destash swap for story and for crochet necklace swap. As I packed and addressed each story for stash packet I was visualizing the person who will Receive the package based on the story they sent me.

Hi all, I have started a destashing diva group on ravelry - I thought I’d direct those of you who may be interested in receiving surprise packages of yarn from me over the holiday season to my group. I am having great fun putting together packets of yarn to send out. I have requested only a 500 word story about your yarn love or angst or destashing/stashing to be messaged to me - no other “cost” - this story helps me visualize where my yarn is going and sort of “humanize” my destashing process:) Please feel free to pm me about the destash - soon hopefully those that receive the stash can pm me their feedback and then I can either send you more of the same or something different if I have more variety. Offer lasts until it is absolutely too painful for me to let go of my yarn:) Tis the season!!

My 15 year old grandneice is visiting me - so in downtime when we are not walking around town exploring or driving to tourist locations - or in coffee shops each with our own online social networks (that sometimes overlap on facebook) and blogging activities - we are going to work on a crochet project using some of my novelty yarn stash. I hope to record the progress here and on ravelry (as well as facebook where her parents and aunts can take look as well).

We will also read Amy Swenson's "not your mama's crochet" and debbie Stoller's "Happy Hooker" as we make up our own design and end product.
