Make It Forward!

Knit Textures
Okay, so here’s the deal.

The first three people to comment on this post will receive a hand-made item from me. The catch is, you must pledge to post a similar opportunity on your blog or Facebook page, and subsequently make hand-made items for three people who respond to you. And you must do it within six months.

Do not be intimidated by this! It doesn’t have to be anything big or fancy or complicated. Just something fun you make with your own two hands and give away. This idea was conceived by the ever-brilliant Lynn. I love the vision of a wave of hand-made gifts spreading out across the country (and maybe the world!) to ever increasing numbers of people.

So, comments are open now. I will contact the first three people who take the pledge to Make It Forward and get their mailing addresses.

If you miss this opportunity, don’t be too sad; I plan to do it quarterly.

    OK, I’ll play! I will either give away colored-pencil drawings, or little needlepoint keychain charms! What a lovely idea, Nina.

    Fun! I especially like the part where I don’t have to do it TODAY, but will agree to do it. Like planting a seed. I will make some type of change purse, either recycled plastic or recycled t-shirt.
