POSTING A PARCEL?

Did you know that every parcel
Knit-a-square receives incurs a mandatory handling fee of $3.75 US, charged by the
South African Customs & Excise?
When mailing a package,
it is critical to write 
BONA FIDE GIFT FOR CHARITY, NO COMMERCIAL VALUE on your parcel and a declared value of $0 on your Customs Slip so KAS doesn't incur additional postage fees.
Are you sending from the U.S.? Please DO NOT insure your package.

"Thanks to your sister for the gifted yarn, Bev, and to you for doing the knitting.   I think the bright contrast color is an inspired choice.   That child will always know which pair is theirs!"

"Eeee Bev, you make me howl laughing.   Did you seriously cast on handwarmers, do 2 rows then abandon them,..... then go back to them 4 months later......... that's hilarious!    They're fabulous by the way  😉 ⭐ "

"The brown variegated yarn was some gifted to me by my sister. Usually, I can get at least three pair of handwarmers from 100gms, but what do you know, I got to the last inch on each of the third set of handwarmers, with an inch to spare and no yarn. Although I have a ball 'somewhere' of what is the same combo of colours (only acrylic, not wool like these) I couldn't find it easily and I thought with my luck the colours would be ever-so-slightly- brighter or duller,so went for a complete contrast.  :))
I started the brown ones back in April (only achieved two rows)....finally finished the knitting part, end of July."

Bev Jeffery replied to Amy's discussion KAS SNIPPETS - AUGUST 2026
"Thank you for a super edition of Snippets, Amy.
I have read where the request is for Aran weight yarn to be used.
I have sent two parcels this year with DK (8 ply) yarn. I always try to make up parcels that are either all DK or all Aran. I have oodles of crates of 8 ply yarn that I will need to use up, though also using up my Aran weight as well."
