Check-In Post November 24th 2020

[falkner]

Hello, lovely crafters! Welcome to our daily check-in post, where you can tell everybody all about your most recent progress (or lack thereof). Feel free to also chat with other members and generally enjoy yourself!

Check-in is not compulsory, you decide if and when to take part in these posts.


Today's optional question:

How much planning do you put in your projects? Do you immediately get started when inspiration strikes? Or you do meticulously plan everything in advance instead?

If you have questions or suggestions about the community, requests for tags, or want to host the daily check-in posts, head over to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment there.

Yay for a more successul second attempt, and what a great idea to us a slightly larger needle for the colourwork sections. That would never have occurred to me! I'll try that next time I'm doing anything that requires more than one colour for a border.

It's worked pretty well! Still not exact, but close enough that I think blocking should definitely sort it now or at least take it into 'only I'm going to notice the difference' territory haha. I can't take credit though, the original pattern suggested some people might need slightly bigger needles for colourwork. I've just bumped the difference in needle size even further.

That's good to hear. You've found the size that works for you, I guess everyone's different.
