Check-In Post January 24th 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: What's the weather like where you are?


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!

Got about 3 inches of snow here. It's pretty but I'm not happy. Very glad my heat is fixed though.

Finished knitting the pale pink arm warmers except I have to cast off on one. Started a short pair with the leftover multicoloured yarn, I think I have enough to do a pair 70 or so rows. The first pair I made with the yarn are 100 rows. It'll be good to have two pairs, the yarn is so bright and cheerful.

That's great that your heat is fixed. The arm warmers sound fun - when do we get to see them?

Hopefully when I get around to sewing them all up and can take pictures. Not sure if I'll be able to upload them onto this new mini laptop though. I haven't tried connecting my camera to it yet.

OMG yay. I'm so glad you have heat again!

And yay for new projects!

[badly_knitted]

Me too. The freezing cold has not ben fun.

It's all rib all the time, but ideal for when I'm watching TV.

[alafaye]

For me it's either TV or a audio book, lol.

[badly_knitted]

It's good to have something in the background for entertainment!

[alafaye]

And sometimes the only way to get things watched/finished!

[badly_knitted]

Very true!

[catschimericalcreations]

Oof, thank goodness your heat is finally back on! Hope the house warms up quick for you

It's gradually warming up, but the snow and low temperatures aren't helping. It'll get there in the end.
