Welcome to KAS Judy from up in Canada just above MN. Glad to have you with us. You can click on "Groups" above and join the very enthusiastic USA group or any other groups you like, to chat. You can click on Forums to see the various discussions going on and click on Photos to see some of people's recent work. We have some real yarn artists here but I'm a plain square maker, and we all do what we can. Again, welcome to Knit A Square. Thanks for helping the AIDs orphans! Love, Jeanne
Welcome, Judy, from suburban Philadelphia where it has been hot and humid this summer. Knitting squares is the perfect project in this heat! So glad you joined us.
Hello Judy, so glad you’ve joined us. Keeping the children in South Africa warm has brought together a world-wide group of caring knitters and crocheters.
If you haven’t already, please read through the welcome message on the forum main page for helpful hints and things that might interest you. http://forum.knit-a-square.com
If you appreciate a “challenge”, you might like to join the Monthly challenges. This is a fun way to try new ideas or patterns. Every month, a theme is chosen to challenge the forum members to create something new and different......it could be using a new colour, a different stitch or a totally new way of knitting/ crocheting. An 8” square is the perfect size for experimenting.
And as always, making the basic square is a wonderful way to relax and still help the children. Plain Jane squares, as they are affectionately called, are the backbone of KAS. Since it takes 35 squares to make one blanket, squares are needed all the time.
Whatever you decide, we would love to see photos of your work. Click on the photo option at the top of the page, click “Add” and follow the prompts.

Hi Judy,
A big welcome from a KAS TEAM GB member!! :-) You see we are getting into the Olympic spirit over here. Shame we can't have a knitting olympic team!
All good wishes
Pam
Hi Judy, I just joined yesterday too. What a great bunch of people we have found ourselves amongst!
