Check-In Post March 1st 2022

[badly_knitted]

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!

Five more meeces completed, and the last three knitted. That means I have 10 to complete. Wheeeee!

[yarnofariadne]

Yaaaaaaaay!

[badly_knitted]

Thank you! The finish line is in sight!

[wiseheart]

The meece factory is still going on strongly! *g*

[badly_knitted]

Winding down though. 10 to finish and that will be it.

[smallhobbit]

The countdown has begun!

[badly_knitted]

I think it began a few days ago. Nearly there!

[peaceful_sands]

I see mentions of finish lines - is it for real? Have you prepared yourself for stopping this time?

[badly_knitted]

I have indeed. I'm just going to finish the ones I have knitted, and that's it for meeces, unless I get any special orders.

[yarnofariadne]

Finished the infinity scarf!

[wiseheart]

Looks great! Congratulations!

[yarnofariadne]

Thank you!

[badly_knitted]

Woohoo! Well done, it looks deliciously cosy!

[yarnofariadne]

Thank you! It certainly is :D

[smallhobbit]

That looks lovely - and what a great colour!

[yarnofariadne]

Thank you! It really is a perfect colour ♥

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Gorgeous. I love the colour and the pattern.

[yarnofariadne]

Thank you!

[peaceful_sands]

I love the colour and how snuggly and warm it looks. I hope you enjoy wearing it. (Is it for you? If not I hope whoever you give it to appreciates it, because it looks amazing).

[yarnofariadne]

It is for me! I love it :D

[wiseheart]

No crafting done. Today was writing day; at least a successful one!

[yarnofariadne]

Yay for writing!

[wiseheart]

Yay indeed!

[badly_knitted]

Congratulations on writing success!

[wiseheart]

I'm truly relieved.

[stonepicnicking_okapi]

Words. We haz them. Go you!

[wiseheart]

Wordz are good. *nodnod*

[peaceful_sands]

Wonderful - I hope you enjoyed your writing.

Monthly crafting/creative update post with pictures is here: https://xnera.dreamwidth.org/1072991.html

No crafting so far today, but I might do some on the blanket later. Right now I'm thinking nap. Had a busy early afternoon doing all my first of the month tasks, and I feel tired.

[badly_knitted]

Well done on completing all the challenges. That's quite an array of things you've made. Particularly love the crochet basket!

Naps are a good idea when you're tired.

[peaceful_sands]

Wow you managed a huge number of projects this month - well done!

[peaceful_sands]

Still not getting much time to work on projects and when I finally do, I fall asleep. I managed a bit more of the jigsaw tonight - have almost finished the 'picture' part which mostly just leaves the repeating patterns so one more session to work on that and come to a decision as to whether or not I will persist to the end or not.

Last night, I got all my stuff ready to start and then fell asleep as soon as I sat down to start!. Tonight I skipped a few chores and decided to listen to my latest audio book and work on the jigsaw for a bit. Then when that got too uncomfortable, I planned to start on the crochet - but... fell asleep - have now woken up in early hours of morning so am typing this and thinking more sleep would be good.

[badly_knitted]

Perhaps when you can get more sleep and don't feel so tired you'll be able to get back to crafting. Well done on jigsaw progress though.
