I have lots and lots of acrylic yarn, but I read somewhere that basically if you are using acrylic you might as well not bother.  Please someone tell me, honestly, if this is true. Also, I've been…Continue

"In anticipation of receiving my yarn, does anyone have a SIMPLE crochet pattern for a cuddle?  I have NO idea how to do anything but a square, and struggle reading patterns, but do have someone that can help.  So, if anyone has a cuddle…"

"That's the way I do it but I don't know if that is the "Grit Stitch" per se.  I just find doing sc, dc and then as you say sc into the dc next row, dc into the sc, works up fine into a nice fabric.  It works up fast…"

"CRAZY, hopefully I'll hear from her soon.  I would LOVE to get some yarn donated, it would help me be able to shift more of my funds to shipping!   Now I gotta try to find some sort of business or group to sponsor my shipping!"

"Hadn't thought of approacing Rotary or Kiwanis.  That's a good idea.   About how much do you estimate a box costs?  I happen to know officers of both our local clubs!"

Hi, Leanna:

I just saw your February 23 comment today, asking if I was a good question/answer person.  I'll bet you've already figured out the answer!  ;-D

Sorry I didn't get back to you.  Actually, I'm pretty new to the site myself, having joined sometime last August.  I still have questions cropping up all the time, about KAS and about knitting and crochet.  I'm sure a lot of more experienced KAS members have already replied to you!

Thanks for the comment, however!

Leanna,

   I have not worked on this project for a while now....my job takes up too much time.  I do hope to get back to this soon.  How soon will you be ready to ship your squares?

Leanna, your comment about knitting your first square arrived in my inbox this morning via Google Alerts.  So you see, you knitted one square, told us all about it and Google posted it to the world. Think how many  people may knit now for the children as a result.  That is why we believe every square is a currency of hope!  Thank you for joining us and giving it a go.

You can ask right here and then I can direct you to the website for specifics if necessary. Ask away....

Hey, Leanna, thanks for friending me!  I just came back from a root canal at the dentist, so I needed some good news!  ;-)

Greetings from up in Canada Leanna.  I love this charity, we can do so much good directly from us to them.  And my crocheting skills actually improved...minor miracle!  I went and watched the dog sled teams giving rides to the kids out on the frozen lake yesterday. They had a team of horses pulling a wagon out there too. It was "Family Day" for us but I believe "Presidents' Day" for you guys.  Hope you got some time off to enjoy it. :) Welcome to KAS!

Hey Leanna!  Welcome to Square Circle Forum!  Since you, like me, are from the U.S. why not join the U.S. discussion group?  It's one of the most active, lively discussion groups on the KAS site -- just full of friendly people, ready to help ably and immediately with any "technical difficulties" (which I, as a knitting/crochet beginner, really appreciate!). 

Glad you joined us!
