I decided to complete 40 squares, enough to make one blanket. After mailing the first 3, then 6 more, I was interested in a more economical method of sending them. Those senders from the USA can go to www.usps.com for further information. The type of postage is called FIRST CLASS INTERNATIONAL. It pertains to packages of four pounds and under (code 243.41) and the size restriction is maximum length 24 inches. Maximum length, height and depth combined is 36 inches (code 243.42). I think this is a great savings over the same size package using Priority Mail. The package would have been $37.50 and I paid $23.67 using the First Class International. The latter takes longer to get there but since there is no deadline this method seems better. Hope this is of value to those knitters and crocheters from the USA.
