Knit-A-Square - First Package to Post

Feeling excited now, I have my first package to go to South Africa and it contains my two knitted squares and a crocheted square with a personal note saying that I made them.

I am also knitting a square vest as well, as you can make them hats, socks....anything that will keep them warm :)

For more details on how YOU could help, visit Knit-A-Square to see what you could do to help! It doesn't take much time at all!!

Knit-A-Square

Knitted two squares for Knit-A-Square charity.



I am now learning to crochet, so that I can crochet a square using these instructions.

You should knit a square too! They need 175,000 squares to make blankets and keep children warm....the squares are only 8 x 8" in size, so it doesn't take long to knit at all!

For more information, if you do want to help, visit their Knit-A-Square site and my previous blog post where you will find more details :)

Knitting Squares

Sitting last night, thinking what could I do with my time, yes I am still on this situation.

Something for charity, I could do something for charity.

Typed in knitting for charity and I got this Knit A Square website, where you can knit or crochet 8 x 8" squares in any colour or in any pattern...This is ideal for me to practice knitting while helping little babies keep warm at the same time!

Can't wait to get started!!

This is a little boy with a completed blanket using all the squares that people knit and send to them.

First completed knitting project

This is the end result of my scarf.....and the completion of my very first knitting project (even though I finished it about 2 months ago).

Now that I have all this free time, I need to start my second knitting project.

Hello Internet Diary

Christmas is yet again over, and its another new year.

Holidays have came to an end, and I will be going back to university on Monday to start the classes of semester two. Though I have recently came to the realisation that I will only be a student for another few months then I will graduate in July...what are my thoughts? Bricking it!

Putting photography aside as I have not really spent a great deal travelling to capture some lovely photos, and I have bought myself some knitting needles and two balls of wool...yes, I am knitting.

I used to knit when I was younger, got the stitches casted on for me...I knitted, badly and then it would be casted off. I would end up with something very holey and somewhat pointless but it was fun. I have been knitting a purple scarf, I figured this would be the easiest way to teach myself again...although I am using the stockinette stitch for my scarf coz I wanted a small challenge he he...

I shall post a photo of the end result, of my 99p handmade scarf he he
