Check-In Post April 15th 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!

Haven't done any knitting yet today, but I have been taking breaks from packing - I baked some flapjacks, and the ebook I've been waiting for from the library for two months finally came in so I've been reading, too. Am just about to do a couple of rows on the rainbow scarf, though!

Do you also find baking relaxing? :)

I do! I tend to like something a little more involved than flapjacks, just to occupy my hands and mind a bit, but I have some oats that needed using and a friend just sent some honey from his brother's bees, so it was a good use for those :D

I always get confused about flapjacks, here that means pancakes.

Yum, flapjacks are among my favourite things although mine are shop bought.

Baking and reading are good substitutes for knitting!

Honestly I haven't yet figured out how to make mine as good as store-bought!

I did get a little bit of knitting done in the end, too :)

But you can still make them!

Yay for knitting!
