Opening Days in the

Knit A Square Barn 2021

From this...

...ending with full shelves.

Opening day at the KAS Barn is all about opening parcels and sorting the squares.  Bundling the squares to be sewn into blankets and then preparing blankets for distributions.

We hope that 2021 will be a year of great success for KAS and all the children of South Africa that receive KAS blankets.

From opening day, January 19.

Big boxes or smaller parcels, The Barn love getting mail from all over the world.  This week included items from Turkey, Croatia, the UK, the USA, The Netherlands and more.

Colorful delights from The Barn.  You can tell that some of the items have been in transit for quite awhile due to COVID 19.

Thank you Estelle, Athele, Audrey, Liz, Sheldon, Sunel and Mands for working so hard.

These two blankets were made by Chris Chiplen

Fabulous blankets.   So much thought went into each one.  A delight to see.   thank you for posting.

Stunning blankets from Chris and Sunel, love the designs.

I cant believe that I have missed this barn discussion until now, cabin fever has made my little brain more forgetful than usual!!

Great to see blankets arriving and thrilled to see 2 of mine plus the toys from a friend.

Liz with a blanket she sewed together.  Ready for Mandela Day in July.

These two were made by Ada Brewer in The Netherlands.

This blanket is from Heather Mensah.

Love them all, but the 2nd one with the bold zigzag is a fav.

So many gorgeous blankets in this batch :)

Goodness! I made that blanket in July 2020! Glad to see it got there in the end!

CREATECARE GLOBAL

"CreateCare Global has set itself two tasks. The first is physical: to bring hope, support and comfort to children for whom poverty and loss are everyday tormentors. The second, and in our view equally important, is to spread the message to the world."

Our thanks to CreateCare Global for supporting the Square Circle Forum and helping to spread the wonderful work that KAS does.
