Check-In Post - May 20th 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: We all probably have multiple WiPs, but which of yours has been hanging around longest, waiting to be finished?


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!

I was in a really great mood yesterday. Alas, that mood has poofed. I'm just sitting here refreshing websites now. Le sigh.

Anyway! Got two rows of the cardi done between yesterday and today. No work on Alphinaud today, but I'm past the body increases and into even rounds before splitting for the legs.

We all probably have multiple WiPs, but which of yours has been hanging around longest, waiting to be finished?

I have a blanket that I started in 2008 that's still in hibernation. Will I ever finish it? Who knows! I think I need more yarn for it, and I'm not sure those colors are sold any longer, oops.

Yay for progress on the cardi!

Boo for no more yarn for your WIP though…

So sorry your great mood poofed out on you =(

Well done on cardi progress! Also well done on progress with Alphi.

Oh dear! Well, perhaps it can be a small lap blanket. And you're not alone, I have an unfinished sweater from around 2008.
