Check-In Post - March 3rd 2026

[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 is a craft that you tried but abandoned?


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!

10 rows on my knitting, but I might do a bit more shortly.

Great progress!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! And I managed another 10 rows while watching TV!

You are unstoppable! *g*

Not quite, but I want this black sweater!

The second blanket is off the needles! Still need to weave in ends and block.

[badly_knitted]

WOOHOO! Congratulations!

[wiseheart]

That is fantastic!

I've cut out the pieces for a smaller TEDI Teddy clone (I find the original too large) and for a few heart-shaped keyring ornaments. Just to have something easy to sew when the vibe catches me. *g*

Excellent!

[yarnofariadne]

Excellent!

knitting on the fan fest entry, coming along nicely I feel. glad for the distraction. trying not to get tears in my yarn.

(family friend's funeral was this morning, and then there's this devastating news. I'm okay. Have had some stress lately so probably needed the tears anyway, but still: sad.)
