Variegated love!

Thank you Lina for the square heart.

from USA.

Lina [ Aline ] describes herself as a scientist by day and an avid knitter by night. She was at that time in her homeland Switzerland, now she has moved to the USA. When Lina first found us in 2013 she was a keen new crocheter too, and finding it addictive ! Ah you just had to find our forum Lina ! Lina said knitting and crocheting for KAS is a very straightforward and efficient way of helping children in need. We agree that it is wonderful to have an uncomplicated charity that enables us to give directly from the heart and hands to children in need. 

Lina has contributed to KAS children many times with beautiful and imaginative work. She has made squares, sweaters  and really lovely blankets and toys.   Here are some of her early squares you may not have seen for a while, and then a lovely array of beautiful blankets.
