JULY 2021 THEME - AROUND THE WORLD
WELCOME TO
AROUND THE WORLD
What a wondrous world we live in. Full of intriguing and interesting landscapes, both natural and manmade. From the mountains to the seas, from the newest cities to the oldest civilizations.This month we will take a trip around the world, discovering new and/or interesting sights....from the smallest flower to the largest structures. We can explore the many things that make our countries unique.
Our special events this month include Mandela Day, when we honour the late, great, Nelson Mandela.......
and the gathering of the world at the Olympic Games.
Our Colour of the Month (CoM) is BLUE. I had many colours in my stash that were a questionable blue, but on googling 'blue' I discovered a site listing 144!! I'm all good. :)) Here is a little sample from the site. I'm sure we all must have a little in our stash.
Please remember the importance of our Plain Jane squares in the blankets that are created. Perhaps make some in blue or a colour/s inspired by something in your landscape or somewhere you have visited. Have fun...and please share with us.

I can think of one KAS member who would find this square to be her Blue Heaven! Beautiful idea, Amy.

Hi Bev
here is my blanket for this month. The South African Flag.
The diagonal stripes are wrong I know. At first I couldn't figure out how to do them, and then when I realised it would be easy, I was too far along to pull out days of knitting.
But anyway I'm sure a child will like it.
Sandra

Sandra, this is amazing - you can be sure that the little one wrapped in this is not going to worry about the diagonal stripes!

I agree with Leslie. It´s not so easy to knit the whole flag and children usually don´t mind such trifles.

Sandra I think it’s the first knitted one I’ve seen and it’s amazing! Any child would be over the moon getting this blanket.
