WI (Women's Institute) Report!

Posted by Karen Bennett on May 20, 2016 at 1:23am in Closed discussions

I wasn't sure where to post this, but I wanted to show you all a report that was featured in my mum's local WI magazine.

They didn't get the details completely correct (KasKare for one), but as you can read, mum has been spreading the word among her local WI group who, in turn, have been generously donating wool. 

And here, again, is the granny-square blanket featured in the photo above:

It's beautifully bright and crocheted with a small hook, so it feels very thick and warm. It's on its way to South Africa and hopefully the article will spark some interest and encourage people to look out for KAS.

    What a gorgeous blanket, made out of donated yarns yet...your Mum is so creative, way to go girl, you've rocked the blanket for sure!  And all that sewing up too...my hat is off to you for your great love and perseverance.  BRAVO.

    Thanks so much for sharing this news with us.  This blanket is absolutely amazing.  My hope is that you all continue to get yarn donations for more beautiful blankets.  Thanks to both of you for all your contributions to KAS.
