Check-In Post June 25th 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!

I'm reasonably sure I can handle it, but it's more complicated than I really wanted at present. Still, I may as well continue now I've started. Hopefully it'll get easier as I get used to the various patterns. I do wish my needles were a bit pointier for the blackberry stitch though. Purling three together is difficult with the blunt pair I'm using. Might have to switch to a better pair.

I'm mystified too. Maybe the pattern writers are counting the blackberry stitch as pattern 1, who knows? Cabling on the right rows will be a challenge since the two cable patterns twist on different rows, and in different ways o_O I've done more complicated patterns, but not working from several charts.
