Check-In Post July 4th 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.


HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE IT!


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!

I've been working through some of my yarn stash. Ignoring the Sockening blanket, the sock on needles, and the "failed" colour pooling crochet blanket (it's a blanket - it will still keep me warm, I just didn't follow the directions so the colors don't pool - also, swatching is very important in crocheting).

I have cast on some Dishie yarn (Knit Picks). I was going to be making coasters, but I wound up making a blanket instead (I really like how the yarn feels). I have 3 skeins left, and then this blanket will be done. I started on Saturday. Blanket will be 7 skeins total.
