We run a challenge each month. For the next three months it is all about squares. We have a grand total of 55,900 squares we are trying to achieve and would love you to participate.
Don't forget to post photographs of your work. We have an awesome gallery of the work of the KAS community which is really inspiring.
Some of our members further support KAS by making a small monthly donation through Paypal (top left hand corner). This is invaluable help as it ensures we can continue to ensure that your work is speedily distributed to the most needy children in South Africa. We are deeply grateful for any donation we receive, be it monetary or squares to help the orphans. Thank you.

Hi Eunice,
I live in Port Shepstone and have been knitting and crocheting for KAS for more than a year now. I don't think there are too many of us Banana girls here, but I have loved being a member of this group of warm and giving people.
I have not been very active on the forums since the end of July. My husband passed away July 28 and I went to my brother and his wife, who live in France, for a month. Since my return every time we have a storm or a power outage this computer decides not to recognize the external modum which links me to the internet. To get it going I have to crawl around on the floor and fiddle with various bits and pieces not really knowing what I am doing but can usually get lucky.
I have however continued to produce squares, aiming for a square a day but not quite that quick, and knitted a simple teddy - he's almost finished. Has to be filled and given a face. I like to try my hand at most of the different challenges and the only thing I haven't made yet is a Kascuddle.
Welcome to KAS. Chat again soon - regards - Jen
