RhondaH replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Hi again, Could you possibly post more specific information about how you're sending things from the US and whether you've sent things this way before?
I just spent 10 minutes talking to the post master in the next town (since I had…"
RhondaH replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Thanks Donna, this is very encouraging news!
I'll have to check with my local post office again. I've been sending things via the First Class International Rate, using boxes that I bought--I always seem to have too much for an envelope,…"
Donna Overton replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Yes, I just bought a empty box for $10.35 and am gonna send as many as I can get in it and as soon as I can get it full. I talked with my postmaster in length about this and she said it was the same rate. It is much cheaper than sending 3 or 4…"
RhondaH replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"I've used the flat box rate for sending things in the US, but didn't think the same rate applied when sending overseas. Have you used this method to ship squares from the US?"
Donna Overton replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Sandy,

Sandy McDonald replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"I must ask Ronda (no h, Aunt) why my grandmother named her, certainly wouldn't have been after that fabulous Beach Boy's song! You are right there does seem to be a plethora of Ronda/Rhondas in this community, which is great."
RhondaH replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Thanks Alice, I'll try the butterfly design. I'm taking a little break from the KAS squares because I need washcloths, and I thought this might be a good time to try one or two of the Rhonda White designs. I also found a kitty design on…"
Angela Garlant replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"Hi Wendy, this sounds interesting and I am going to do it for my next square. It is great trying out new stitches and patterns. I have started looking through some of my knitting patterns and using the section that forms the pattern within the…"

"hi rhonda sorry its took so long to get back to you yes i use double knit wool and for my tension of knitting i do keep to about 37 -40 stitch designs and they do come out 8 inches if there a little bit more i dont do the border stitches i have…"
Sandy McDonald replied to Sandy Richardson's discussion Knitted Square Patterns Wanted"I must find a way in which I can catalogue all the free (as in copyright free) patterns for easy download of the site. You mostly all do a great job of pointing this out. I think that would be useful? Sandy"
