Check-In Post April 22nd 2023

[badly_knitted]

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!

Didn't fit in any crafting, but it stayed dry this afternoon so I spent a couple of hours outside pulling weeds and cutting back brambles. It was good.

[smallhobbit]

Well done on the gardening - would you like our rain?

[badly_knitted]

No thanks, I'll have plenty of my own for the next couple of weeks. Today was an unexpected fluke so I took advantage of the opportunity!

[wiseheart]

That is progress, too - even if probably more exhausting than crafting.

[badly_knitted]

More painful too. The brambles bite and their teeth are sharp ;)

[yarnofariadne]

Hooray! We've taken all your rain :D

[badly_knitted]

But I'll be getting it back tomorrow =(

[spiralicious]

Hurray for dry weather!

[badly_knitted]

It's wet again today though =(

[smallhobbit]

I've not been doing much crafting this week, having been away for a couple of days, but today I did some stitching for my son's anniversary card.

[wiseheart]

Your stitched cards are so very pretty!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you very much.

[yarnofariadne]

Lovely!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you.

[badly_knitted]

Can't fit everything in every day, at least you found time to do a little!

[smallhobbit]

This is true, despite my best attempts.

[badly_knitted]

Life is a juggling act.

[spiralicious]

Very nice!

[smallhobbit]

Thank you.

[wiseheart]

I've finally finished the Hello Kitty booklets! They are put together, all 5 of them, and I'm fairly happy with the results. I might add one more item to each bedroom - a bedside lamp - but I'm not quite sure about that just yet. In any case, there will be photo(s), soon!

[yarnofariadne]

Excellent!

[smallhobbit]

Wow, most impressive!

[badly_knitted]

Yay, well done!

[spiralicious]

Hurray!

[yarnofariadne]

Cast off the rainbow scarf! I'll weave in ends tomorrow and block after the move.

[smallhobbit]

Congratulations!

[badly_knitted]

WOOHOOO! Finished before the move, except for blocking, which can definitely wait!

[spiralicious]

Congrats!

[wiseheart]

Go you!

During Svengoolie, I almost finished the second not-a-baby-blanket. I've got 6 rows of the border left.

[smallhobbit]

That's excellent progress!

[badly_knitted]

So close! You'll have it done ion your next session!
