Last year around this time I made a commitment to avoid hoarding crafting magazines. I don’t want to become one of those little old ladies who can’t let go of her stuff. A person who lives in a house full of old copies of Interweave Knits, but has no friends because she doesn’t have enough clearance around her door to admit visitors.
Nope, that won’t be me.
Last year, my pal Carina of Hakelmonster blog proposed a crafting magazine swap. A truly awesome idea. I sent her a pile of English language knitting magazines from my stash. She sent me some very interesting German-language magazines–not the kind of things one can find at the local Barnes and Noble.
Would anybody like to do another swap with me? It’s all about sharing and cultural exchange. Ideally, I’m looking for someone overseas who has access to different magazines than we have here in the U.S. If you’d like to swap, just leave a comment and let me know.
What a wonderful idea! It really makes me wish I actually had magazines kicking around to swap with. π
I have a few that I hang on to. Basically I have been pretty good and am switching to digital. π
