Squares Are Comin' In!

Hey Everyone!

Squares are starting to come in as people finish off their knitting. They're so beautiful, I wanted to share them with everyone.

Remember, if you still haven't signed up to knit, but have been thinking about it, we've extended our deadline to June 30th so there's still plenty of time for you to knit a square and collect some sponsors!

Thanks everyone for all your hard work so far. Keep the squares coming!
