Poor you! All that sunshine and local produce! I don't know any knitters at the moment but one of my friends has started a charity to help farmers in Guinea Birkenau (have I got that right?) where they have links. Also, my son's (primary) school is going to do a whole-school project on Africa next year, so I may try and get some of the kids interested in knitting/spread the word if my French is up to it - I'm hopeful of generating interest! How about you? I'm just going to peg out some washing then off to visit a friend - speak to you later if you're still on line! Bye for now! Kate
Yes, I would love to join the French group, Helen! Sorry, we've been having email problems plus I've been so busy at work that I haven't had time to check my emails at home! I'm in Normandy - are you close by? Kate

How lovely to have another member from beautiful France. Hope you enjoy the forum - perhaps you should start a French group as there are other members who are from France.
Please join our July Challenge - keep a newborn warm, making blankets for abandoned babies. And also our July competition to win the beautiful book, The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques. You can find the details in the main forum.
Hi Helen - just to say hello and hope you enjoy being part of the KAS growing family! I think you will agree, everyone is so dedicated in helping to reach the BIG goal and doing whatever they can to support the children of South Africa. They are very enthusiastic, friendly and inspiring. Happy knitting/crocheting. Angela x
