Hi Lindi!

Thank you for writing. 80 ladies to do the sewing - that is wonderful! Now the few squares I send every once in a while seem like just a drop in the bucket, but I do what I can. The beautiful thing is that all our drops come together to make a small pond... and maybe one day a big lake and then an ocean! :)

The photos are touching - thank you for sharing!

Mary

It's wonderful to know that so many people are interested in Knit-a-Square and looking after our children...

Lindi,
You touching base with us as you have time is greatly appreciated. I know you must be super busy most of the time.

I wonder if Erin's friend would allow us to show her photographs on our Flickr site? We would, of course, give her credit for every photo and provide a link to her website or blog.

Awesome idea, Dawne.  She is in Kenya at the moment (lucky fish!) on an assignment but I will mail her right now and ask if she would be ok with that...  There are some fantastic pictures!

Taking 900 squares a week to just one place makes me realise just how much this project has grown in such a short time.  Thanks Lindi for sharing these photos - they really do remind us of the desperate need that exists and spur us on to knit and crochet faster!!  I hope you now know - if you didn't before - just how much we all appreciate you and everything you do. xx

Lindi,

So glad to "hear" your voice here on the Forum. I appreciate all of the work you do to make KAS possible. We, the knitters of the world, and the wonderful volunteers in South Africa CAN make a difference in the lives of the children. Together, we can work wonders!
