Four legged friends, glorious green, fabulous faces, and nifty neon.

My favorites this year were the Beauty of Blues and Color Collision

Love those ideas :) 

Here's another one that I'm sure many of us can relate too..."Snow Day"  or "Winter Wonderland"

Neon!! diagonals? they are so easy to do in knit? and together make such striking squares - what about Orange October for Autumn/Fall? Orange is so cheerful and great for both girls and boys

I love the idea of a winter theme, maybe Red's, Green's and White. I look forward to seeing what choices are made.

I would suggest the 'Log cabin' theme which can be done in knit or crochet and can use up all sorts of odd lengths of yarn.  I reiterate 'Stripes', thin, thick, regular, irregular, diagonal because they always liven up a blanket.  How about Granny Squares?  How many colours can we get into a Granny Square?

And thank you for such delicious names for themes.

You're so right about the log cabin idea to use up odds, Mili. I've never tried them but imagine they're super easy.

Great ideas everyone. My suggestion is a shapes theme, and "in the garden".

Thanks Gina, have added to the above list.

As you work at the 'coalface' of KAS and get to see the children, is there anything you think they would particularly appreciate in terms of the themes, knitted goodies etc.,?
