Hi Charlotte, welcome to KAS from Cornwall-lovely and sunny today! Your job sounds very interesting and I am sure keeps you very busy-I have flown with Easyjet a few times and all but once left on time-once we even left early because everyone was on board on time!! You have joined a great forum-very friendly and chatty and knitting for KAS is such a wonderful thing to do.It is a great place to get inspiration-the photo gallery never fails to give new ideas and if you have any questions there is always someone who will come up with an answer. I am sure you will enjoy being a member.

I look forward to seeing your photos too!

Charis

Hi Charlotte, welcome to the forum. We're so pleased that you found us. Yes, one of the great things about knitting squares is that you can practise new patterns and there's plenty of inspiration on site. The patterns section is being re-organised at present but the Photos are always worth a look and googling 'dish cloths' will bring hundred of patterns online to try. Do have another go at crochet too - the two skills complement each other.

Welcome, Charlotte from near Philadelphia in the USA! So glad you joined us. I am just relearning crochet after many years of knitting. It is fun and gives me another skill to use to help the children in SA.

Thanks everyone for your replies!! It has been a pleasure meeting everyone in the forum and so nice to know everyone is so active for the charity. It is very interesting to hear where everybody is knitting from.

 

Charis - We have been very lucky with the weather the past few days, it is going to last the whole week too :)

Christine - Thanks for the idea to search dish cloths, I love finding new ideas to try out.

Bev - I have just posted my first picture of my first square and my English flag design square :)

Debbie - I am definitely considering picking up crocheting again, just like you! I have my hooks out ready to go!

Hi Charlotte! Nice to meet you!

Your first 2 squares are so beautiful - I thought you were an "old timer" to KAS! ;)

I love the way you describe your job. I travel a bit, and it's nice to know there are people like you keeping things in order backstage.

Hello Charlotte!

I`ve done some squares and hats with my Mum and in January we sent our first parcel off to Africa!
