Check-In Post August 8th 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!

Feeling a bit wrung out after yesterday, but I have made 5 spiders today, leaving just 5 more to do.


Also, last night I crocheted around 30 rings so I now have 250 of those, 270 left to do.

That sounds like a gruelling task. But at least the spiders are coming around nicely. Great job!

[badly_knitted]

It's not so bad, they're quick and relatively easy to do. Managed another 40 tonight while watching TV so I'm up to 290.

Well done on your progress, especially while not feeling your best ♥

[badly_knitted]

Thanks. Crafting is at least relaxing, which is good.

[wiseheart]

I wasn't very industrious today either: only one more page finished. But that takes me one step closer to my goal, so I'm not complaining.

[yarnofariadne]

Every step counts!

[wiseheart]

True, although *two* steps would have been better. *sigh*

[badly_knitted]

Every page done is a page less to do.

[wiseheart]

Yeah, that's always a consolation. I think I'll be able to match the deadline with the baby book. Not so sure about the felt songbook, though.

Two more rows on the beach cover-up, which I think puts me at 58 overall out of 161.

[badly_knitted]

You're really doing well! 3 more rows and you'll only have another 100 to do!
