Congratulations Knit-A-Square!   769  more blankets to warm the children.   Sorta warms me, too.

Dare I ask?    Where are we going next?

WOW isn't that marvelous and I have just come here to add 210 squares knitted into 6 blankets for the children and singlets and stationery sent by the lovely ladies of the Scots Memorial Uniting Church Mission Club.

Hi, I've just joined the group. What size squares would you like me to knit and/or crochet?

Hi Sarah-Jane, lovely to have you with us. We welcome knit or crochet squares and aim to make them as close to 20cm (8") as possible. There's more information here under Frequently Asked Questions http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/topics/frequently-asked-questi.... As you're in the UK you'd be very welcome to join the UK Group (or any other that you fancy).

All colours, patterns etc are fine and there are some ideas both in the KAS Pattern Book and under Members' Patterns. We love to see photos of your work if you care to post them, and you will find the Photos section inspirational. Each month we have a theme just for variety but that's entirely optional.

Look forward to hearing from you again.

Linda, here is a message from Karla Bystrianska.  I´d like to inform that in the morning I sent a parcel with 2 soft toys, 1 blanket and 20 squares. xo

Thanks Anneke and Karla.
We reached our destination on March 28 (see my comment above). The Van 'collected' enough squares to make 769 blankets ! More warm children this winter.

This discussion is now closed....but keep on making squares, there are more children in need of a warm blanket.
