Check-In Post - October 27th 2024

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.


This Week's Question: Have you ever made something and then had no idea what to do with 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!

It was sunny! While we had daylight. I hate that it gets dark even earlier now, but... *shrugs*


Anyway, since there was good daylight, I sewed up the very dark navy arm warmers. I just hope no one will notice one is a bit longer than the other. No idea how that happened, I'm so careful keeping track of the number of rows. Thought I was anyway.


Knitted 22 rows on my next pair, yay!

Great use of the daylight! Yay for a fully finished pair. I don't think most people would notice such a small difference in length.

And extra yay for 22 rows on the other pair! You are very productive for sure. :D

Hopefully it doesn't show too much, I think it's either 2 or 4 rows difference.

I only knit while watching TV at the moment, the rest of the time I'm busy writing, and I need to get everything ready for Halloween...

Good job! I'm sure the difference won't be noticeable. Sometimes wool just stretches differently.

There's a difference in the number of rows, I could tell that when I was pinning the arm warmers before sewing them up, but it's not a vast difference, two or four rows, no more than that.
