Greetings Ilona from over in Canada! Welcome to a worldwide network of loving happy people helping African Aids orphans. Glad to have you with us. It's so heartening to know that in this global, often so impersonal world, we're actually making a difference, a REAL difference, in the lives of these children. Check out the Forum, above, for the various discussion threads, and Photos for all the lovely photos of members' work and Groups where you can join groups from countries around the world.
The Featured Discussions grouping (in the Forum section) show the most important subjects at the moment, latest challenges, latest news etc. I also recommend the Anyone Want to Chat Discussion section, which contains the Our Furry Companions and Yarnaholics threads. I am so much a Yarnaholic! You joined us just in time to contribute some warm squares, hats and garments for the children, as their winter is approaching as ours leaves. Thanks again for helping the AIDS orphans in Africa!
Wow! 100 squares already??? Amazing....and what great opportunities you provide for others to participate. What could be nicer than sitting in a tea garden sipping tea, chatting and knitting...after a yoga class....sounds divine.....if only I lived closer!
Yes, our autumn, too, has been quite mild with very little rain and nice days.
Well, I have the day off today (I care for 3-5 year olds at a daycare centre) and I plan to do the not-so-fun task of sewing together a couple of vests and sewing in the 'ends' of my squares ready to send to S.A....so I will catch you another time. Have a great day...and Happy Knitting.
Good morning, Ilona...and welcome to KAS from Western Australia.
Not sure what time of day it is in S.A......but aren't the mornings getting chilly in the southern hemisphere? We are so glad you are joining us in warming the vulnerable children of South Africa. Do you knit, crochet, or perhaps both? If you would like to see what your fellow KASers have been creating you might like to click on the 'photo' tab at the top of the page....there are many wonderful creations.
By clicking on the 'forum' tab you can read and be a part of (should you choose to be) many lively and interesting discussions...not all are about our craft.
To read more about KAS any its many heart-warming stories, please click here.
Any questions...please ask. We are a friendly community and love to assist our friends where possible.
Most of all...we hope you enjoy being 'one of us'.
