Check-In Post December 13th 2020

Hello to all members, 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: Are you making any Christmas or holiday gifts this year?


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!

Tapestry Pineapple Doily

[darkcedars]

Yes - the hats & headbands I've done since we started were all gifts. As is the tapestry doily I was pulling my hair over getting started. Thanks for all the support on yesterday's thread.

I have rounds 1-3 done (about 1.5"/4cm). It took forever, but I also ripped back more than once while I was figuring out how to juggle both threads, be consistent, and still *ahem* count stitches properly.


There's 20 rounds to this.

That looks very pretty.

It looks like very delicate work, but now you've figured a few things out it will hopefully go more smoothly. The beginning already look amazing!

You are the champion of making gifts, so many done already!

Very pretty and, as others have said, delicate-looking. Nice to see the colors together.
