Hi Kerry - could you just clarify a point for me, please. I trust that most if not all the knitted items are arriving safely in Soweto - on checking the e-zine this morning for arrivals up to 23rd April, I noticed my first two batches were not mentioned. I hope this is due to perhaps an overload in the KAS admin and not lost or stolen. Am I making a fuss about nothing?

The ezine is gorgeous, Sandy. Brings tears to my eyes. Kerry, I have two final updates for the April race: my squares totaled 11 (for Dochas22) and my mom crocheted 11 too (Bev). I'll be mailing them next week. And starting more squares for May! Maura

Hi Poppyfield,
I think they are a little behind on the admin. I know there has only be one parcel of the many hundreds sent that has been lost so far. I would suggest you wait for the mid-may e-zine (when they should be more caught up) and if you don't see your name on there then perhaps contact Sandy to report it lost?

That's 679 in total and 22.6 per day! What a wonderful success!
We obviously have a run away winner with Paulette Pronk! Her needles must be steaming! Paulette, please drop me an e-mail with your address so I can send you your mystery congratulations gift!
Kmouse2, Michelle Gibson, Kyla (Square a day), Sally Webersinke & GmaX4 - Please also e-mail me with your address! You have all been picked at random from all the competitors for a Runners Up Prize! No matter how many squares you made, every effort is valuable!
Thank you to all those who took part it has been great fun!
I was thinking we should perhaps take May off and arrange the next 'Race' for June? I know at lot of people now have very neglected projects of their own! Does anyone have any suggestions for the June Race & would anyone like to run it?

I am also late in posting - my final number was 30 and that means I reached my own goal of "a square a day"! Everyone rocks!

Bravo everyone. Even if you got to make just one square, that square might be the one that a child loves to stroke or look at or helps them feel more loved, or the colours or design make them smile. You never know. Each square counts!
