Hello, I'm a novice on this website. I think you said you were originally from Penzance and were making a visit to the UK. Just to say have a great time. You will see some changes don't let that put you off. And it goes without staying I hope the weather is good!
Hello just trying to make contacts and the forum is quite busy so I choose you as you are a Beverley as well.
I wonder if you could help me I sent a batch of squares off to the address I found on the internet I did put my email address on the envelope and a little message. I have no idea if they have been received - can you tell me what happens when you send of a batch do you get a response?
Hi Susan, KAS is certainly a great charity and the forum is a wonderful place to chat with people from around the world.
The "Vinnie's" sound like a good place to spread the word about KAS. How nice to be able to craft with a group of like minded people and help the less fortunate as well.
Greetings Susan 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!
Thanks Susan, we are a bunch of people who just love to take direct action! Thanks for the T-shirts, just one thing please make sure you cut off any price tags. If Customs happen to open your parcel they will charge KAS duty if they see price tags or stickers. Hope your travel plans run on well oiled rails and that you have a lovely trip seeing friends & family - and, of course, spreading-the-word! Take care, Pam
Hi Susan, welcome to the forum ! We are so pleased you have joined our world-wide family of knitters and crocheters. We are dedicated to keeping the children in South Africa warm.
If you have any questions about anything just ask. There is always someone willing to help with the answer.
Everyone loves to see what others are doing so please post photos of your work. Just click on the photo section at the top of the page and then follow the prompts.
Have you had a chance to look at the e-zines ? They provide wonderful photos of how our squares are helping these vulnerable children. Their smiles are priceless !
After you have a look around you might like to join the Australian group. There you can discuss specific questions that pertain to your area of the world as yarn weights tend to differ by country. And crochet stitches are different here in Canada ! Also you can join any other group you would like.
