Check-In Post April 23rd 2021

[badly_knitted]

Hello to all members, 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.


Today's Question: No question today.


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 did some crocheting while listening to an audiobook! I'm making a granny-square-blanket for my nephew. I should devote more time to it, it is taking me forever.

Chocheting granny squares is fun. I started a blanket years ago, but got sidetracked by knitting. Might do some more squares at some point though, to use up yarn oddments

[verdande_mi]

It is a good project to use up yarn!

[badly_knitted]

Indeed, although I use lreftover bits for all kinds of things, small knitted creatures, bookmarks, dolls house things...

When I am done with the knitted vest I will look for other and smaller projects!

[badly_knitted]

There are lots of them out there, and they can be a lot of fun, but a bit fiddly to sew up.

I like crafting while listening to audiobooks - it's a great way to spend some time.

[verdande_mi]

I would not be able to knit while listenting to audiobooks, I lose my focus too easily, and I use too much energy with knitting, but with crocheting I find I know what I am doing, which leaves me energy to listen too :D
