i have this idea and i'm wondering how many people would be interested in partaking. :)

i thought it would be fun to trade knitted or crocheted squares. so we would all have a collection of these random squares from different people, that we could make into an afghan.

what i'm thinking is...
once a month there would be a square exchange that i would organize. i would ask who wants to trade for the next month, and then set up some sort of trading system (ideally so you would be trading with someone different everytime). you don't have to take part every month, if you're too busy that month or for whatever reason. (similar to other monthly trade communities.)

the only requirements are that the square be 8"x8". it can be knitted or crocheted. any size needles/hooks can be used. any colours, any yarns. whatever you want. (so yes in the end you could have a very random mismatched quilt-type blanket, but wouldn't that be fun?!) and it doesn't matter if you're a beginner or an expert. i think what would be really neat about this is just the diversity in each blanket.

would anybody be interested in being involved with something like this? :) or have any ideas/suggestions about it? the lj community for it is stitchmysquare.
