Check-In Post - April 22nd 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: Does your crafting change with the seasons, certain crafts at certain times of the year?


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!

Wasn't feeling energetic today, so despite the weather being nice, I spent the afternoon watching DVDs and knitted 8 bees.

Hope the bees were cheering ♥

They seem happy enough.

I've finished 5 rows on the hat! It's a pattern that has me trying to hit a certain length so I don't know how many rows it'll be overall, but I'm tracking and if I use this pattern again I'll already know my row count.

Excellent progress, and good move keeping track of your rows.

Finally took the time to take some WIP pics. I'm getting really close to the bottom ribbing of my sweater so ofc I want to work on anything else.

Just saw them on your journal, and they're looking great! Good luck with getting the sweater finished!
