Check-In Post - February 15th 2025

[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.


This Week's Question: What kind of crafting supplies can you never resist buying?


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!

My shoulder pain finally got the best of me. :( After a sleepless night, I high-tailed myself to an urgent care clinic to have it looked at. Waiting for meds to be filled, and I have a referral for orthopedics (and possibly neurology as well).

Because of the pain, I really haven't been able to craft much. I just did a round on a doily, which wasn't too bad but one round was enough for now. So much for my big plans for this first month of Nerdopolis. No way I can finish the chicken in time. I think I might try to finish one of the legwarmers, though (we can submit singles of items that usually come in pairs). But mostly I am sitting around feeling sorry for myself.

Doilies aren't the best for high pain times, no. If you can make some progress on the easiest project it can at least keep you occupied.

That sucks! *hugs carefully* I hope the meds will help and that your referral appointments will give you answers and help you get back to normal so you can craft. In the meantime, just don't overdo anything.

Oh no, I am so sorry. I hope you feel better soon!

Awww, poor you, that's really awful!
