Ladies,
Happy St. Patricks day!! We will use shades of green, maybe some yellow and white. Shamrocks abound, so get those needles and crochet hooks moving!!!
We are having so much fun making dishcloths, think about joining us!!
For those new farmgirls, we knit or crochet themed dishcloth in a holiday color or pattern or even shapes now, you girls are getting very creative!!
Sign up for March by....March 1st Partners Posted on March 2nd.
At that time you contact your partner with your address. Please try to do it as soon as possible.
Sorry Ladies Debbie is right....sometimes this job of mine has its own life!!!

Mailout will be no later than March 7th.
So many cute patterns for free on Ravelry, google search or even all the yarn companys. Also a suggestion that was made early on and I will mention it again for our new farmgirl sisters and new to knitting and crocheting. Cotton based yarn is the best for dishcloths, acrylic doesnt work well with water etc. Cotton bamboo blends are good as well, just more expensive.
Requirement is one dischcloth per partner, and package tucks are at your kind will.
Happy St. Patricks Day
Diana

Jessica you are very welcome. Sorry to not post sooner. Too many medical issues to take care of this past month and our computer was hijacked. We just got it back today from the computer hospital as I call the Geek Squad department at Best Buy. lol.
I got your package a while ago and it's wonderful.
Thank You so much! Love the shade of green you used to make the potholder. I do like to cross stitch and will enjoy making the book marker. Thank you for all the extras and being my Swap Partner.
Farm Girl Hugs,
Brenda

So glad you liked your things, Amy. Had fun making them. The scrubby was made by a lady at my sister church. I thought it was so neat, I wanted to share it. I've got plenty of time to sit with her and get another. Enjoy, my friend!

Debbie, your parcel just came, thank you so much. I was trying to post a picture, but don't seem to be able to send it from my phone to my computer. The dishcloth is beautiful I love that deep green shade. And I love tea and the shortbread, they just go perfectly when sitting and doing some knitting in the evening. Thank you very much for being my partner. These swaps are so much fun.

Thank Julie for the lovely package I received. It had a lovely dishcloth plus some lovely extras. I really appreciate the care that you put in to it.
So Sorry however, for the length of time it took me to let you know I received it. I have had a bit of a hectic time.

Hi everyone! Doris, I'm so sorry you've been dealing with so much difficulty and really glad my little bit o'Irish fun cheered you. Now, right back at ya, thank you for the wonderful package you sent! Here's a photo:
Not one, not two but three shamrock and green dish cloths, and the coolest dish cloth with a sparkly scrubby in the center. I've never seen one like it! Plus a darling little crocheted butterfly and a wonderful journal. Doris, thank you, iove it all and feel very spoiled!
Happy Day!
Peace in our hearts, peace in the world

Happy St. Paddy's Day (Belated) to All!!! So sorry but it's been a really rough week here at mi casa. Dealt with a very ill dog early in the week and had my #19 molar disintegrate beneath its crown - - oh JOY!! I was told that I'm actually "lucky" that it happened the way it did as many people not only swallow the crown but apparently its not uncommon for them to lodge in a lung!! YIKES!!! Top this all off with having issues with our Hospice company and you've got a recipe for a not so great week!!
I did however, want to thank my dishcloth swap partner Amy for the neat stuff she sent. It was a bright spot in an otherwise dreary week here. Here is a photo of the super groovy swag! (Shamrock dishcloth, potholder, tea towel, a pair of socks, a sparkly lucky stone for my garden, clover and a lil pot to grow it in, some shamrock cupcake liners and some green tea. I'd say she knocked it out of the park with the theme, wouldn't y'all agree? She wrote me a very nice personal card and I do believe she does represent the Irish very well indeed.)
Thanks again to Amy from DE! Between her and Sue from Bend, OR -- I actually managed to survive this week!

Mine is ready too. Nothing fancy but I enjoyed making. I'm sure if my partner is experienced then my simple little creations will probably underwhelm them.
Thanks for the reassurance, Deb. I will not panic now that I know we are all on the same page! I'm also in a few other exchanges so I have things to keep me busy. Cheers!!

I am starting to wonder if something is wrong with Diana. If so I hope it is nothing serious but something joyous. What should we do? Should we go ahead and pick partners and continue the swap ourselves? My dishcloth is ready. I just need to know where to send it. I am in several other swaps so I would like to get this out of the way.
