This month we focus on Africa and all of its uniqueness.
This disucussion is filled with many green items and South African themed items.
Visit this discussion to see the most recent blankets that pass through The Barn.
It is with a heavy heart we announce the passing of Cathy Riley, a very dedicated and long-time supporter of Knit A Square.
She created squares that when put together made over 800 blankets for children in South Africa.
Visit this discussion to read Cathy's recount of her visit in 2016, as well as an interview with Leanne in 2020.
In this discussion you can see photos of recent distribution made by our KAS volunteers.
