I clicked the Join Down Under and the Long White Cloud link and this comment wall came up so I guess that means I am in the Club.

Maudie. Just been doing some surfing around the extensive place that is KAS

Hello dear Oz KasFolk, a happy belated New Year.  Hope to spend a bit mroe time in the forum and groups this year, so have just sent a broadcast and posted a discussion about the challenges for the year.   I would be so grateful if you could hop on in there and add your ideas and thoughts.  The suggested list is by no means set in stone.  A vibrant conversation will inspire people to knit and crochet more and the mantra never changes: more hands, more squares, more warm children.  Hope to chat to you in there.  Sandy

Well done Allison, and a big hello from the UK - have a delightful time at this special time, wishing you and all the Oz Kasers good health throughout 2012!

Hi all, I'm from Sydney and sent off my first batch of 35 squares in November.

Hello our Aussies and New Zealander friends. How are all you all? I must apologise for my lack of communication over the last, well, I'm not sure exactly how long but it's been too long! I would love to hear what you all have planned over this silly season. We really want to get the forum communications going again, hope you'll join in!

SPAM ALERT PLEASE IGNORE & DELETE ANY MESSAGES FROM Betty Shoemaker / Stupid Easy Government / promotrcrker.info watch video.

 

Betty Shoemaker is actually male and does not appear to have KAS's best interests at heart!

More comments for Downunder Group :

From Jan Wilcox : That is the supplier I used before and I had them sent to KAS Soweto Club and they got them ok. I ordered another box to be sent. It is wonderful as it does not cost me any postage.

 

From Helen Flagg : 

Wendy, check with Ronda about this seller.  I sent her 200 of their longer plastic needles in August and they are fine according to Ronda.  It took 6 weeks for delivery but the shipment did finally arrive.  At about the four week mark, I wrote the dealer and inquired about the lengthy delivery time and heard back immediately  so communication with the dealer is very good.    Please post as to how many plastic needles the sewers are needing now so we will know what is required.  Ordering from this dealer is extremely simple with Paypal and the dealer does not charge any shipping costs.   Does KAS need  200/500/1000?  What number is actually needed?  Going through customs takes some time so plan on a 6 week delivery.

What a great ebay store Wendy/Pam! Good find!
Pam Antink Comment by Pam Antink on October 9, 2011 at 8:15pm

More info from Wendy :

Wheeee!

 

Just found a seller in China that has 100 plastic needles for $8.99 U.S and free shipping!

 

The Auction I bought them from is about to end, but I think they will likely relist, here is the vendor id:  http://myworld.ebay.com/craftdiyonline/?_trksid=p4340.l2559

 

I am having them shipped to me first though, I want to see what they look like and make sure  they are a reliable seller.  (They have good feedback and are rated as a Top Seller).

 

Will post again when my goodies arrive, which will probably take about 2/3 weeks, yay!

 

They also have straight and circular knitting needles, stitch markers, stitch holders, crochet hooks and more that might also be helpful depending on what you are able to source where you live.
