Check-In Post December 9th 2021

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.

Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?

There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.


Today's Question: No question today.


If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.

I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

I hope you can get some smaller snowflakes done.

I can empathise, I too suffer badly with anxiety and as a result remained living with my mum until she passed almost 7 years ago. I'm still in the same house, just alone now and having to pay all the bills and expenses myself, which isn't easy. Thankfully I stocked up on craft supplies while mum was still here, and inherited all of hers, so I'm not short of yarn and stuff. Still bought a 100g ball of peach DK last time I was out though, because I only have a tiny scrap of peach left for making knitted mice.

Those reindeer look brilliant, but they also look quite complicated. And is that a naked Santa in one of the pictures? o_O

How about fingerless mitts for your sisters? Or a festive coaster? Things that don't take an awful lot of time but are still lovely to have.

Knitted bookmarks could also work, couldn't they?
