Check-In Post March 25th 2023

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!

10 rows on the sweater back and a lot of figuring out of the back neck shaping, how many rows that takes, abs which row to start on so I finish where I want to.

[wiseheart]

Sounds complicated. Good luck!

[badly_knitted]

I think I have it figured out... *fingers crossed*

[celli]

*crossed as well*

[badly_knitted]

Thanks =)

[yarnofariadne]

Hope all the figuring went well!

[badly_knitted]

So do I o_O

Some very minor crafting due to the ongoing Easter baking. But I have a chicken now!

[yarnofariadne]

Hooray!

[badly_knitted]

Yay for little chicken finger puppet!

Hope the baking is going well!

Oh, absolutely! I've made almost 90 biscuits (2 different sorts), and they turned out well. Not quite sweet enough for my taste, perfectly right for Mum's so when the chocolate icing goes on them we'll be both happy.

[badly_knitted]

Sounds yummy!

[celli]

yay chicken!

[yarnofariadne]

Making good progress on the rainbow scarf, which is fortunate because it does have a deadline - it's for a friend who's coming to stay with us for Eurovision, so I've got a little over a month to get this done!

[wiseheart]

Yay for good progress!

[badly_knitted]

Good luck! You can do it!

I fully finished the solar system project today, including adding beads to the asteroid belt!

It's absolutely brilliant, the beads are the perfect finishing touch, adding a bit of sparkle to the asteroid belt!

[wiseheart]

Oh, this looks amazing!

[spiralicious]

That came out great!
