Check-In Post - November 30th 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: What's on your holiday wish list this year?


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!

Sounds like you're making great progress on both the shawl and the scarf. The shawl rows must be VERY long by now though.

Well done for getting through the Thanksgiving card-making with Lynne, and getting everything ready for the next couple of sessions.

Glad you had fun with the bookmaking, despite the inadvertent booboos. The ornament making should be fun!

Sorry for giving you more wishlist stress! I hate being asked what I want for Christmas. Not that anyone asks me these days.

Thank you. The last row I knitted on the shawl today was up to 325 stitches across. It's a bit too smooshed together on the needles to really measure it yet.

Thanks. I have my fingers crossed for tomorrow to go smoothly.

Thanks. The boo boos gave me more excuses to collage more in, a win for everyone ;) It looks like it will be. It's going to be lead by the same woman who did the miniature spell book workshop.

No worries! You didn't add any stress. I promise.

Wow, that's a LOT of stitches! I'll be interested to know the measurements once it's done.

Fingers crossed for today.

Well, that's good! Hope you and your mom enjoy the new workshop.

The last row I knitted was 355 stitches across. I'm trying to enlist some help in actually measuring it. With the way it curves and the size of it, it's going to take extra hands.

Thanks x2. My mom is very excited.

That's a lot of stitches! Good luck with the measuring!
