Local yarn swap?

As an occasional knitter, I have an *ahem* small yarn hoard.
A big chunk of it is made up of three weights of cream-white wool yarn I inherited from Master Paul's long-ago warp-weighted loom experiment.
I have several skeins of DK or fingering weight yarn, ideal for Society projects like hats, flat caps, gloves scoggers, and the like, and could also work for some wool-based tablet-weaving. I'm busiily using up the jumper-weight (2ply) but may have some left at the end.
I'm looking to swap: I'm in search of some aran weight/10ply (one of the heavier weights for sweaters) grey or charcoal, anything grey or tweedy, around 50-100g, for a specific project.
Happy to negotiate for other swap yarns, but I'm really after supplies for this one project that has been hanging on me for awhile.
I'll be at the coming revels, and the March scriptorium in Oxford. Please drop me a line to discuss!

Can't find the photo that went with this article originally, but I'm certain this was my pattern.
Charmingly, if you look for pics of scoggers in google my project comes up very high!
