Looking for the October list ? Because of technical difficulties in South Africa the lists are not yet available. After I receive them, I will post the list asap ! Linda

Where's the October list? I forgot to put my email in my packages and I wanted to know if they arrived alright.
Cherry it is hard to wait for the list especially when you forgot your email address ! Are you using the packing slips ? If not, here's the link: http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/topics/package-inventory-makin...
It will probably be a few more days before the list is on the forum as I haven't received the lists from South Africa. But since the end of the month was only on Thursday, it will be a while before it arrives. Everyone is a volunteer and they must be exhausted after opening all the parcels on Thursday and then someone has to record what has been received...in their spare time.
Your parcel has probably already been opened and the squares sorted and into blanket packs, ready for the sewers.
Been there, done that LOL
any idea when the square list will be out for October???
Hi Ann, as I mentioned to Cherry [see my comments to her above] I haven't received the lists yet. It's only been 3 days since the last opening day which coincided with the end of the month. I will post as soon as possible after I receive them.
ok thanks linda I should of scrolled up as I missed it
Ahh my squares have arrived! Thank you for this. I sent my squares via a colleague who was travelling to South Africa so was pretty sure they'd get there, but it's still reassuring to read it in black and white :)
Hi Caroline, it is always nice to know the squares have arrived ! By now the squares will be in blankets keeping children warm. It is still cold in South Africa. Spring hasn't arrived yet.
The Squares List is available for August !
Remember parcels take a while to arrive in South Africa and then must be opened, sorted and recorded.
Scroll down the discussion to the list recorded in the August pdf found at the left corner**
