Welcome to KAS, Regine, from way over in Canada where it's still winter here. I find KAS such a rewarding cause to be involved in and I hope you enjoy it too. Do check out the New Member Guide which is found by clicking "Main Page" in the header above. To reach the Discussions just click Forum above. Any questions just PM me. :) So, welcome to Knit A Square! Blankets and hats and sweaters direct from our hands to their hearts, a win-win.
Hi Regine, Congratulations on your first square! The volunteers like to have a one metre/36" length of yarn left on one end. Sometimes when I receive donated squares without the extra yarn, I add the yarn length by sewing it securely to a corner. They don't mind if the colour doesn't match.

Looking forward to photos of your squares.

Hi Regine, Welcome to the forum. We are a friendly group and someone is always willing to help with any knitting questions you may have.
