I'm now on Listia!

Remember this Skinny Scarf? I just listed it on Lista, to see how it works.

Apparently, you start out with a certain amount of 'points' and that's what you use to bid on the auctions. Then you list your stuff and get how-ever many points that auction ends with, and spend those points on more stuff. Like Ebay, only without money.. sounds like a good place for me to waste LOTS of time.

Go check it out, and bid on my Skinny Scarf - if its as awesome as it sounds, I will start listing ALL of my junk -er, I mean 'stuff'.

Also - leave your Listia username in the comments so I can be a fan!

Pay It Forward 2011

About a week ago, I posted this on my Facebook wall:

Pay it forward 2011: I promise to send something handmade to the FIRST 5 people who leave a comment here. However, to be eligible, you must repost this status, offering the same thing to 5 other people. The rules are that it must be handmade by you and it must be sent to your 5 people sometime in 2011. Ready, set, GO!

..and now I am working on 6 handmade creations (yes 6 - I like breaking the rules).

Tada! This crunchy, wooly scarf is heading out tomorrow as my first PIF2011 surprise!

The white is reclaimed from a sweater and is big, fat, crunchy and soft, and the skinny purple yarn has just a touch of shiny shimmer in it - cute!

Skinny scarf!
