Check-In Post January 21st 2021

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: 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!

20 more rows on one arm warmer, that's at 100 rows, so I just have to do 30 rows on the other one to match.

A talented friend made my boys pillows of their favourite football/soccer teams (FC Barcelona and Paris Saint Germain) and the pillow inserts arrived today. It's like punch needle but very small.

Wow, those are amazing! I bet your sons are thrilled.

They are impressive! She added so many thoughtful touches (like the majority of the players aren't white). They like them a lot.

Not just skilled but detail oriented

Finished off a couple more Beanie Beasties and uploaded their pictures to various places on the internet. Super pleased with the Baku - the stitching is pretty rough but I like his weird wiggly legs that make him look like he's constantly doing a jaunty walk.

How fun! The Baku looks great!

[badly_knitted]

Well done! He's such a cutie!
