Hello Everyone
Excuse me for my bad English. I'm living in Belgium and my langue is Dutch. So I hope everyone can understand me. Here in Limburg (it is a provence in Belgium) we are knitting and knitting. I think we have already 800 squares. I've got a mail from a woman in Brussels who started also with a knitting group. I've contacted her and we are trying to send the squares together after the world knitting day on June 13th. The press (local news paper, television) has already contacted me - and ask me about the goal of knitting squares. I've got a plenty of respons and I think a lot of women are knitting squares at this moment. So we wait till Juni the 13th. I hope we can send you a lot of squares.
Many greetings
Ingrid

- Hi Ingrid, I think your English is very good considering it's not your first language! I understand quite a bit of Afrikaans which isn't that far off Dutch so I'd probably be able to pick up a few words here and there but definitely not do nearly as well as you do with English.
1500 SQUARES!!! That is such an amazing effort, congratulations and thank you so much. Well done on being published in the local newspaper too, what fun. Can't wait to see all of your squares Ingrid, that's a record for knit-a-square!

- Wow Ingrid that is so brilliant and exciting. I'm so happy that I found your message because it's not in a place where people can see it publicly. Thank you so much for your efforts that is fantastic. We will look forward to hearing how you go on the thirteenth. 800 squares is such an amazing effort that's more than thirty middle sized blankets.
Thanks again Ingrid, please keep us posted!
