"I did manage a couple of two tone waffle squares for November, but preferred the ones with more colours! I always have an unrealistically long list of "next projects" to try, but it's better than being bored!"

Good on ya', Lucinda. Thank you. :)) No stress, I think when I joined (in 2010) it took me 18 months before I had enough for a couple of parcels....children, work, etc.
Four year olds are such fun..past the 'terrible twos' and not quite old enough to be a 'know it all'.....hahaha.
I'm guessing with your Mum being South African, she would have shared about those less fortunate there.
Knit A Square is planning a mass distribution in April, here is the link if you would like to read about it. Of course you may have already found the discussion for yourself. :))

Hi Lucinda.
A warm welcome to the Knit A Square forum. :))
Knitting, crocheting or looming an 8" square or two, or possibly even a few is a wonderful gift for the children. They love to receive their blankets, created from squares, which come from kindly, caring folk such as yourself, from over 60 countries all over our world. PJs (Plain Janes as they are affectionately known) are the backbone of all our blankets. These are single colour squares that are in garter stitch(knitting) or single crochet as they are very solid and provide a contrast to a picture/striped/patterned square or two that may be added to a blanket.By clicking on the KASpattern book tab at the top of the page or our other square pattern discussion http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/topics/member-s-patterns-squares you can also find lots of patterns provided by our fellow K-A-Sers. If you would kindly check out our wishlist, you can see what items we are currently focusing on. http://square-circle-forum.ning.com/forum/topics/what-our-children-need-2019
