Check-In Post May 24th 2021

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!

Only 10 more rows of sleeve rib, it's been a busy day.

[darkcedars]

I'm still impressed you get a tiny bit done at least every day!

[badly_knitted]

Thanks. I like to keep to a routine in all things, so doing a bit of knitting in the evenings has been part of that since last October. It'd good for my arthritic hands.

Go you! It's impressive that you've been able to keep that routine for so long.

[badly_knitted]

Thanks! I only got back into knitting last year, but I'm completely hooked again.

I'm nearing the end of the 3rd skein on the baby blanket project. Normally I'd stop around this size, but I have a 4th and this color has been discontinued. Plodding along fairly consistently, despite---

being super busy because we are buying a house! I never thought that would happen. My parents decided they wanted to help us buy a house. We have found a bungalow, cross your fingers that inspections next week do not turn up anything dire. On Wednesday we are going to visit it and take some measurements, so we can do some figures for paint etc.

Well done on the baby blanket, it'll be a good size when it's done.

Congratulations on the house buying! Hope everything goes smoothly, it sounds very exciting!

[wiseheart]

Good luck with the home-hunting! And with the baby blanket.

I've finished my cuddly mini-pillows (on the 25th, but it doesn't really count, does it?).

They can be viewed here.

I hope this works; I'm not used to DW's features.

[darkcedars]

It works and they look great.

[wiseheart]

Thank you, I'm glad I haven't messed up the coding.
I hope the recipients will like the pillows. Two-year-old girls can be choosy. ;)

[badly_knitted]

Works perfectly, and the pillows are beautiful! I'm sure they'll be loved.
