I love this! I am going to have to make one. I wasn't sure if we could send wraps. But, I think this is perfect!

Hi Sharman, Haven't seen you on the KAS site lately so thought I'd say hello!
Sharman Carroll commented on Michelle Breeding's group 'United States'
Jan, PP will continue to send our squares until the end of the year even though we have reached 1000. They will not continue to send a cash donation once they reach $1000. They are sending the entire $1000 to KAS. So, everyone continue to send your…

Paulette, PP sends squares monthly to SA. I have been following PP blog for a while now but just noticed their charity events about a month or so ago and let everyone here know about them so they could save some money on shipping and give the money…

Hi all, about planet purls donation, I think that the full $1000 goes to KAS. Beth is not splitting the $1000 between the two charities. So, I think it's a good idea to send PP some squares. A few of us have sent squares to PP already and it…

Hi Jan, Planet Purl's address is: 4767 New Broad St., Orlando, Fl. 32814. The email address is beth@planetpurl.com. I am sure they take any kind of squares.

That's great Diane, I have sent them alot of squares already. Saving money on our shipping cost and adding a donation to KAS through PP is great too. It's nice that Beth lets us know she received our squares also. At least we know they get…

Hi everyone, just recieved an email from Beth at Planet Purl saying my squares arrived safe and sound. At least I know they are there. Going over to the Candian group to see what they have to say.

Diane, PP does have the guidelines up on their site for KAS. So, I am sure they know about the not for commercial use and such. I sent my squares in ziploc bags with my name on them. But, I don't know how they will be mailed from PP. I guess it…

Not a problem. Hopefully, I was able to help a bit. Maybe you could send some squares to PP and that will help save on shipping. I am in the same boat you are, my wallet can't keep up either.

Thank you so much for the info. You are correct and I will have to find a long term solution. My problem is I have been knitting too fast, maybe because most of my squares are variegated yarn in garter stitch. My wallet for shipping can't keep…

Hello Ladies,
I mailed 52 squares today, but mailed them to Planet Purl. So, should I add those to our total? I think that Planet Purl is only going to be a short term solution to our mailing worries as they "adopt" 2 charities a year.…

- Thank you so much for the info. You are correct and I will have to find a long term solution. My problem is I have been knitting too fast, maybe because most of my squares are variegated yarn in garter stitch. My wallet for shipping can't keep up with the squares. I have not given up yet.Thank you again.

P. Jeanne Haessler said… - You're very welcome for the hat pattern, Sharman. I was looking around on the Bev's Country Cottage site and found it under the "loom knitting" section and was like "why the heck did I never think of this!" I've got some thin yarns this would be super for as they stiffen up if I double them, so this does the doubling for me but with the stretch still in them! :)

- No worries Sharman, they are fantastic squares! Postage is a bit expensive but we always send via seamail which is quite a bit cheaper. I think the more you send the cheaper it gets but your local post office should be able to help you work out the cheapest way. Good luck Sharman and thank you so much for your awesome contributions x x x

- Sharman, I haven't seen it done just read about it. My husband has started knitting and was looking for info about men and knitting. Apparently the farmers ( and wives ) knit for extra income.
