Welcome to Knit A Square Carol! I'm over in the middle of Canada, across The Pond. There's lots to see and do here, including clicking on Photos, above, or the Forum to find the discussion pages, my personal fav being Cafe KAS, I make a right nuisance of myself over there. There's also Groups where you can join as many as you'd like, to chat in. Glad to have you with us to help the orphans in Africa, one on one, from us to them. Any questions, just ask, we're a right chatty bunch. :)
Welcome Carol! I'm from Cheltenham Township near Philadelphia in the USA. We have a Southampton in Bucks County not far from here. I live near Coventry Avenue...so many English village names here as the first settlers were from your country. Glad you joined us!
Hi Carol and a very warm welcome to KAS from Norfolk. We are a very friendly bunch so please feel free to ask any questions, there is always somebody with an answer, as I have found out!
Do take a look around the site using the tabs at the top of the page. The photo section has some wonderful pics of peoples work and when you feel ready it would be great to see some of your work but it isn’t a necessity to do this. It’s a great place for ideas and inspiration to keep the children warm.
So glad you have joined us. Happy knitting/crocheting.
Hello Carol, so glad you’ve joined us. Keeping the children in South Africa warm has brought together a world-wide group of caring knitters and crocheters.
If you haven’t already, please read through the welcome message on the forum main page for helpful hints and things that might interest you. The FAQ category should answer any general questions you may have. If not, please ask. http://forum.knit-a-square.com
If you would like to try something different, you might like the Monthly challenge. This is a fun way to try new ideas or patterns. Every month, a theme is chosen, and if you wish, you may create something new and different......it could be making a plain square using a new colour, a different stitch or a totally new way of knitting/ crocheting. An 8”/20cm square is the perfect size for experimenting.
This month’s challenge is All About Christmas . Have a look at what some of us have made and then join us in making a square or two that is your interpretation of this challenge.
And as always, making the basic square is a wonderful way to relax and still help the children. Plain Janes, as they are affectionately called, are the backbone of KAS. Since it takes 35 squares to make one blanket, squares are needed all the time.
Whatever you decide, we would love to see photos of your work. Click on the photo option at the top of the page and follow the prompts.
Hi Carol, Welcome to the KAS forum from the UK. I hope you will enjoy being part of this friendly & lively community. Do you knit or crochet or both? Around the world caring people are all taking direct action and team-working with the Ladies of the Soweto Comfort Club - it is making a difference to many parentless children. When you've had a chance to look around the site you would be very welcome to join the UK group for more local news and chat.
You can also personalize your own page by clicking on the My Page tab on the menu. Also you can access Settings on this page and set your privacy terms. For questions click on the Forum tab and then KAS - Questions, Answers and Help.
Very glad your Facebook/web search directed to you our global knitting family! Check out the Hello & Welcome Letter by clicking the "Main Page" tab above.
