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!

Finished the last round on the cardigan a bit ago, and seamed up the arms. Now to seam the back (joins the two halves). On the fence about adding pockets. I might wear it a couple of times and decide.

Identified a new bird visitor today, again by sound because it was hiding in the hedge, a red breasted nuthatch. It is probably visiting due to the suet cake.

Yay for almost finished cardigan! There aren't enough women's clothes with pockets.

Oooh, that sounds like an interesting bird! Too bad it's so good at hiding.

[darkcedars]

I only need to weave in the ends now. It's larger than I expected but that's fine!

Yay! It's good to have a cardigan that's big enough to go over other things when the weather gets really cold.

It is probably visiting due to the suet cake.

You clearly know how to take care of your feathered guests. :)
Good job with the cardigan!

[darkcedars]

I will probably get more birdfeeders next year! More variety of visitors. :D

I love a good set of pockets, but of course only you can tell if they're right in this case!

"red breasted nuthatch" is just a great name for a bird.

Very nice to both
