Check-In Post December 13th 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!

No crafting yet, but I might knit in a bit. I'd like to try to make at least one pair of arm warmers for my neighbour, so I need to get going on that.

Take it easy; you've had a few really hard days.

[badly_knitted]

I have, and knitting is very relaxing for me.

[darkcedars]

I've been dragging for a few days too, hope you get to knit some.

[badly_knitted]

Sounds like you need to rest too.

I've been rushed off my feet the last two days, so it was nice today that I got to stay home and relax.

I finished the second of the shorter red arm warmers, cast on for a pair for my neighbour, and did 2 rows on that, so 22 rows tonight!

[darkcedars]

Good, and now that you've started the next pair it makes it easier to pick up later.

[badly_knitted]

Exactly. I always like to get things started so I can pick up and knit while watching TV without having to fiddle.

[wiseheart]

I've made one last surprise box today; tomorrow is the big day. Wish me luck!

[badly_knitted]

Yay, well done!

Good luck, I hope the sale does really well!

[darkcedars]

Good luck!

I have started a simple hat just to have something to work on. Not up to snowflakes at the moment.

[badly_knitted]

Have fun with the hat. The snowflakes can wait a bit longer.

[darkcedars]

Definitely can. I'm also hoping that a hat or two gets me back into the crafting mood. Dad will have them in his stocking.

[badly_knitted]

Hope it works for you!
