Hello Lorna and welcome to our KAS community.

Thank you for joining us and for your contributions to the orphaned and vulnerable children.

To benefit from your membership, you should visit our guidelines: http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/categories/forum-guidelines/listForCategory, and to introduce yourself in ‘Meeting You!’ http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/categories/meeting-you/listForCategory

Here is a post that will touch your heart: http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/topics/thank-you-kas-from-the-bottom You may also like to start you own personal blog in which you can post your news, views and family stories and photos. http://forum.knit-a-square.com/forum/categories/members-personal-blogs/listForCategory

We run a challenge each month. For the next three months it is all about squares. We have a grand total of 55,900 squares we are trying to achieve and would love you to participate.

Don't forget to post photographs of your work. We have an awesome gallery of the work of the KAS community which is really inspiring.

Did you receive the latest ezine? If not you can view it here: http://www.knit-a-square.com/Square_Circle-backissues.html. Follow the blog: www.allfororphans.com for a different perspective on why we need to look out for these children. And for precise details about the project, visit www.knit-a-square.com

Hi Lorna,
I was so quick to hit the accept button to become your friend that I didn't have time to read your accompanying message - it seemed to just disappear before my eyes. All I caught was the word Pinetown and bam all was gone. If you can remeber your message would you put it on my page?
I grew up in Durban North, lived and taught on the Berea before marrying and spending the next 30 years in Yellowwood Park. We moved just south of Port Shepstone to a lovely retirement village when my husband became more severely debilitated with Pakinson's Disease and several other problems.
24/7 care-giving is tough but I do get lots of time to unwind with my knitting and crocheting, especially in the evenings
looking forward to hearing from you....................Jen
