Here is how Stitch Secret Santa works:
1. You knit or crochet or stitch a gift costing about £5
2. You lovingly wrap your gift
3. You bring it along to the Stitch London Christmas Shindig on December 13th.
4. You drop it in the Sack of Secret Stitching
5. You party
6.
You rummage and recieve a handmade gift
7. You spend the rest of the night marvelling at it
A few rules:
• Gifts must be around £5 or more
• Gifts must be either handmade or stitch themed (we mean it)
• You don't have to confess which gift you made
Not in London? There are Stitch Londoners in 52 countries around the world. We don't want you to feel left out. So if you're not in London and live far, far away we've started a Global Stitching Secret Santa International Swap on Ravelry. Join the thread and get swapping your stitching. Go on.
