Check-In Post March 9th 2021

[badly_knitted]

Hello to all members, 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: What do you do when something you're making isn't going right? Do you abandon it, start over, or what?


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!

Yay for sock progress!

Oh, I know what it's like to get a new craft thing and just want to use it right away and keep using it! I've never done spinning, but the temptation of anything shiny and new...

Yes, sometimes mistakes aren't too important, especially if it's something for your self and you can live with knowing it's not perfect. But for gifts that matter errors cannot be allowed!

I'm more about the finishing. Once I start something I want it done so I can wear it! Most of the knitting I do these days is for myself.
