Welcome Bronwyn. What a wonderful way to find KAS. Good luck in finding some more Ballarat people. Look on the members link and you will see where people live after you click on their name. Just for fun even if you do not find Ballarat people.
Welcome to KAS from here in WA. It is wonderful to see sooooo many new Victorian members join the forum these past few days. I am, LOVING it!!
Making the basic square is a wonderful way to relax and help the children. Plain Janes, as they are affectionately called, are the backbone of KAS. Since a blanket is created with 35 squares sent by people from around the world, squares are needed all the time. The basic square being a garter stitch/single colour or striped square or I think it is single or double crochet if your preference is for crochet. By clicking on the KASpattern book tab at the top of the page you can also find lots of other patterns provided by our fellow KASers.
Please check out the 'Helpful Hints' tab at the top of the page as this may answer many initial questions you may have and will help you get started. Any other questions...just ask...we love to help. :))
If you'd like to see what other KASers have been making please click on the photo tab at the top of the page....and feel free to add photos of your own work...we would love to see them. Just click on 'add photos' and follow the prompts. Anything you care to make and send will be so appreciated by Ronda and the team and the children of South Africa.
If you want to see the most active discussions at present, you may like to click on the 'main page' tab and they are listed in the centre of that page...just pick one and click on it. It is a large website, but with so much fun and info.
We also have a theme for every month that you might like to view and participate in, but there is absolutely no pressure to do so. The theme for July can be found here:
Bronwyn...click on the "members" tab at the top of this page and scroll through the members to see who is in your area. It is amazing to see how many members we have and where they are located! I'm impressed to hear that you are spinning your own yarn...wow!
