Check-In Post - June 14th 2025


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!

Sounds like a nice day, despite the heavy shifting. :)

Oh, yay audiocassettes! That's always nice when you find something you've been missing for a while. Enjoy!

Good work on the pig!

Oooh tapes! I had a whole massive collection as a kid but they disappeared over time. Yay for finding lost ones, and for cross stitch progress!

Forty-nine minutes on the cardi while listening to the audiobook of All Systems Red: The Murderbot Diaries. If I'm reading the track right, I have about 33 minutes left in the book, which I might get to later today but definitely tomorrow, as the book is due back on Monday.

But now I am going to attempt Alphi's tunic, at least for a while. I've decided yeah, it's a split hem with another panel in back. Wish me luck!

Good luck with Alphi’s tunic! And yay for progress on the cardi! I am hoping to finish an audiobook myself tonight while doing some crafting.

Weaving tails in while doing scales. Ive got one locked down and the other not so much, but it gets to be carried/woven on the next row so all according to plan.

I've been working on crocheting a cat bed, as usual. I hoped I'd be able to finish it today, but nope. I'm approximately half way through.

Halfway through is still excellent progress though! Way to go! (Do you have many cats?)

Just one. I donate the others to rescues, shelters, and sell or gift the occasional one to friends who request one.

I am working on bed #1007. I still haven't calculated how many will add up to 52, which is my goal for 2025.

Managed some crocheting earlier while the kiddos were playing. Hoping to do more tonight while I listen to the end of an audiobook. Now that I’m on row 41/55 it feels like the end of this blanket is in sight.

Very much so. I would happily make it again.

Tonight we made grilled cheese sandwiches with the pretzel bread. Second only to comte on sourdough. \o/
