I recently broke my arm and am unable to knit, but I taught myself to crochet, In looking for patterns to make dishcloths, I came across KAS. I clicked, I joined, I wondered what I got into. Best "mistake" I've made in years. I am excited about making the squares when I'm tired of working on a big project. The squares are great as take-along projects. I belong to two knitting groups and will spread the word. I want to thank all those who welcomed me so warmly. It is you who told me to not turn away and instead, embrace this project. Thank you all. I am excited to get going. Your new friend, Paula

Hi Paula. Glad you joined us. KAS is a wonderful group. You know what they say, when one door closes, another door opens. I guess you were meant to learn another skill and find KAS! Happy crocheting! :-)
Love the serendipity ! Not your broken arm, mind you, but finding KAS.
Looking forward to photos of your squares.
We're so glad you have joined us, Paula. Sorry to hear about your arm - but maybe by the time you CAN knit again, youll be so 'hooked' on crochet, you won't even care.
I am glad you found us Paula :) I find it is much faster to crochet squares than knitting them :) if you check our challenges, it is absolutely amazing how creative you can become on a 20cm square and all this for a good cause :)
We also welcome your 'mistake' Paula, and, perhaps your 'mistake' guided you here! However, breaking your arm was not much fun, but you have turned into an 'opportunity' to learn & develop new skills - crocheting. That is the kind of energy we need here! Please do spread-the-word amongst your knitting groups - team-working is great for KAS!
