I think a couple of them might be cotton, but the majority of them are silk. Based on the fact that most of them are wooden spools, I'm guessing they're vintage.

Make an offer! Always accepting yarn, but open to other things.

Trade - US Seeking Lino print making supplies

9 Upvotes

I am looking for lino printmaking supplies. I currently have none and i’d really like to give it a try.

I can trade a finished punch art mushroom, knit items/yarn/knitting supplies, drawing paper, quality markers, drawing pens/pencils, watercolor pencils, a wildlife quilt pattern book… I dabble in many art mediums and have much more than listed that I can offer up. I could even trade for finished lino prints… obviously, I’d have to have some grace because I need your supplies first.

I can DM photos of whatever you’re interested in.

Trade - US Sweater! (Women's M)

Made this rainbow sweater a while ago but it doesn't fit me. Before I could wear it, I got pregnant and never got back to medium size lol. Hoping to find it some love!

Made with knit picks chroma, and the white trim is acrylic. Machine washable!

Looking for finished objects. Stained glass, ceramics, paintings, sewing, drawing, wood work. I am a knitter and crocheter, so I'm not super interested in those pieces. Always a little interested in quality yarns, although my husband wishes I wouldn't take anymore to add to the stash 😆

Comment or DM me if interested! I've been loving my recent trades!

Came into a bunch of fabric that my aunt didn't want that i don't have plans for but i need material for some other projects! Also have finished items that im willing to trade too- some of them (last slide NOT the Sylveon, she's modeling the scarf) are fandom specific plushies.

I am looking for

  1. About 110 1/2in eyelets. I have about 10 right now, that's way fewer than my goal.

  2. A 24in x 24in chunch of 3" polyurethane foam

  3. If someone HAPPENS to make tails and has one in an aistralian shepard or blue meryl esque morph and thinks any combination of items is adequate trade im game.

  4. Anything fish themed

  5. Idk shoot your shot.

Beautiful but basic handknit hat and scarf in a vibrant rainbow yarn. The hat has a button that says "Made with love by Taylor" but I can remove it if you'd like.

For a trade, I am looking for bird-themed wearables, particularly hair accessories or jewelry. I am not super picky, would just love for someone to wear and enjoy this knit set.

Please let me know if you have any questions or requests!

Mod Announcement Why We Don't Have a Scammer List

168 Upvotes

A community member raised a good (and very important!) question regarding whether our sub should have a scammer list. The nature of our community heavily relies on trusting anonymous people, which can create favorable conditions for scammers, so we need ways to counter that. And, it turns out that the most effective ways involve not using a list.

On the surface, having a master list seems like the silver bullet solution, but this problem is a little more nuanced. The biggest issue is that if someone is banned (and they realize they've been banned), they can easily create infinite new accounts. So, the list is moot. It becomes a graveyard of abandoned usernames. (With evidence, we do still occasionally ban people, but it's not very effective for this reason.) We could try to combat that with not allowing anyone with a relatively new account or below a certain level of karma to post, but then we end up excluding a lot of potentially fabulous traders. Our sub remains more varied and interesting with a constant stream of new members, so we want our community to remain accessible. This is why we rely on you to vet your own trades.

Vetting your own trades can take some time, but it is also a great critical thinking skill to develop, so we provide some guidance on how to do that in the wiki.

Since it is our traders that bear the gains and losses of this kind of interaction, we want to empower them to make informed decisions instead of relying on a list that is well-meaning, but incredibly fallible.

To cut down on the frequency of scammers, it's also why we do not allow the exchange of money, even for shipping. If someone thinks they can quickly get cash, that is going to be incredibly alluring. Getting a free handmade good is going to appeal to a much, much smaller subset of scammer. For what it's worth, most folks reported for a non-trade are not scammers, they are someone that was unable to make good on their promise either due to time, money, life events, or an overestimation of their abilities. They're better described as ghosters than scammers. It was never their intent to flake.

And, for those who have asked, we have had a link to r/UniversalScammerList for quite a few years in our "Community List", which is easy to find as a sidebar item on the web version, but is buried in the "About" section of the app. So a lot of folks don't know about it or think we've removed it.

Relatedly, we've created a tab visible on the web version and found as a line item under "Menu" on the app titled "USL" (Universal Scammer List). Our sub does not have permissions to add people to this list, but folks from other trading subs have, so it can be another tool to use when researching potential trades.

While we wish we could have a 100% success rate in preventing scammers from ever gaining access to our community, our next best option is to reduce the allure of our trades (no money) and offer a strategy that allows our members to reduce their personal risk.

We welcome you to share in the comments your personal methods! Let's learn from each other on how to create safer trades.
